This film marks the reunion of two chaps. My brother and I spawned a passion of making videos together a long time ago. At a time where streaming video to a mass audience seemed like a pipe dream, we found ourselves using the hobby as a way to spend time together. As time passed by, we went our own directions and chased our own dreams. Now after five years we have a rebirth of our creative collaboration. This film marks a new chapter in our creative endeavors by releasing a film created in almost it's entirety by the two of us.
We wanted to make a film as low budget as possible, but high concept at the same time. We juxtaposed an old film genre with a contemporary comedic perspective with high production value. I present to you a story that looks like film, but was shot on video. A silent film that pays homage to the old style of storytelling with a few contemporary anecdotes. A film that emphasisis non-verbal acting from the outside in. And most importantly, a film that had a total budget of $115 believe it or not.

GREAT IDEA LUKE AND MATT OF CHAPPYSHOWCASE!
I LOVE THE EASY TO FOLLOW ENTERTAINING AS WELL AS FUNNY STORY LINE.
THE BLACK AND WHITE OLD TIME NO SOUND FILMING WAS UNIQUE AND CREATIVE.
THE BUDGET OF ONLY $115 DOLLARS IS JUST PLAIN GENIUS!
