Narrative

I first started by just looking for popular scenes from The Office. In the original Community clip, none of the clips came from particularly romantic moments, so I tried to keep most of my clips to just normal, mundane tasks. One thing I noticed from the Community clip is that the actions Jeff performed were just acts of common human behavior (such as keeping someone from tripping), but they were very clearly misinterpreted. I followed a similar process for my video, using actions such as Jim holding the door open for Dwight.

I also had to figure out a way to transition into the slow, “romantic” montage. The point of my work was to parody the cheesy romantic video style, so I needed a way to make that clear. I ended up introducing the characters first and then cutting in part of the Community clip to facilitate the transition into the slow song. This worked out well to help change the tone of the video, as well as emphasize the crossover aspect between the two shows. I also ended the video with an exasperated Jeff from the Community clip, since it again stressed how ridiculous the slow video montage was.
