Sock Puppet
Logline
In a future where technology has regressed, two would-be assassins and a team of reporters converge at the long awaited press conference of a mayor addressing the rampant violence disrupting their small town.
Mood and Tone
The film is grounded in its believable characters and setting of the town of Plainview. The short takes place in a tech ridden world where each character has their own unique aesthetic, both futuristic and antique, matching the future setting in which the film takes place.
The outlandish and peculiar situations that these characters encounter create a comedic undertone throughout the film. In the vein of Punch Drunk Love and Rushmore, unforeseen circumstances drive characters into the farcical. The violent farcical.
Shot on Film
Our ambitious goal is to film this entire project on film to match the short's cinematography with the tech repressed future aesthetic of Plaineview.
