Curatorial Statement

This project works to recontextualize the scenes and characters of a popular TV show in the environment of an action movie trailer. This edited video combines Captain America: The Winter Soldier with the popular television series The Office. The basis of the trailer remains the same as before, but all of the video has been replaced by scenes taken from the TV show. While the subject fields are extremely different and seeming unrelated, this video works to blend The Office’s comedy and lightheartedness with the action movie’s serious and intense plot.

Another component of this media project is its online presence, and the video has been shared on several different platforms in order to reach as many viewers as possible.
