This short film is produced by The Middle Coast Film Collective and Tree 9 Films, and distributed by Future Shorts. The film looks as if it would have been produced on a relatively small budget, provided most likely by Tree 9 Films who are an independent promotional film production company.
The short is a comedy about a man who is desperately trying to smarten up for a job interview, and ends up at a 'barberless barber'. The majority of the film is made using stop-motion. The way in which this short is filmed enhances the comedic elements in a comic sort of way.
The soundtrack partially establishes the genre in this short film as it is a very fast paced, and light hearted track. As the film is stop-motion the speed of the soundtrack helps keep a quick pace that reflect the stop-motion style.
To add to the comedy in this film the character often interacts with the audience directly, for example at the end when he winks into the camera.
I really enjoyed this short and especially its unique "quirkiness" throughout. I thought the narrative worked quite well but the film was brought together by its comedic way of filming and constructing.
