This Is Not A Joke
Short Video
Non Union
Told entirely through a laptop camera, THIS IS NOT A JOKE follows Emily (30s) as she reflects on early-2000s chain emails she once ignored. Warnings that something important would be “taken” if not forwarded. When she receives a message referencing a specific email she sent in 2002, small irregularities in her digital life begin to feel less like coincidence and more like consequence. This is a contained, performance-driven thriller about privacy, digital footprints, and the lingering unease of the early internet.
