00:00What's this?
00:01It's a trailer for our film.
00:02But it's only 8 minutes.
00:03If we show any of the film, it'll mean there's no surprises when people watch it.
00:07Well, let's show them something else then.
00:09How about a frog playing the drums?
00:14Like it.
00:15A cactus dancing?
00:18Some clips from unrelated films?
00:30Maybe we could show one shot of the film, just as a tease.
00:41OK, how about this?
00:46Perfect.
00:47Do we have a synopsis for the film?
00:49I hate writing those.
00:50How about...
00:51A post-operative existential crisis inspires an animator to make a film about a post-operative existential crisis.
00:58That'll do.
00:59I'll pop it on the poster.
01:01I've shown the film to a few people already, and they've all expressed concern about my mental health.
01:06Are you concerned?
01:07Not really. I've lived in this head my whole life.
01:09It's fizzy in there, and a little unpredictable, but it's my head, and I've learned to work with it, even when it misbehaves.
01:16Anyway, this trailer's going on a bit.
01:18Any longer and it'll be a short film in its own right.
01:20Best stop then.
01:21Me and Bird, available to view at a festival near you soon.
01:24Assuming it gets into any.
01:26Then we'll put it online.
01:28Good plan.
