What starts as a 'behind the scenes' clip quickly turns into mayhem as strange events unfold. From Milwaukee filmmaker Carlo Besasie.
How impressive was it that Carlo shot this film in one take???

A technical marvel. Done in one singular camera shot, with post effects added, Carlo Besasie directs a pointed satire of the filmmaker audition tape for a reality show (was this sent into "On the Lot"? I hope so).
My favorite part was Carlos' unflappable cool through the chaos, and his desire to complete the audition. The computer generated effects were mind bendingly sophisticated, in a "B" movie way.
Makes you wonder how the film being introduced, "The Cherry Tree" was actually about. Something about popping?
