Piece of Meat

A stupid parody of Britney Spears’ “Piece of Me”
(with references to “Toxic” while we’re at it)


This project went viral several times just after its creation in 2009, primarily when Britney Spears or PETA or both were in the news, resulting in over 500,000 views. It even ended up in some horror film festivals.  It also stars James Rolfe as the Angry Video Game Nerd, for reasons even we don’t understand.

Director: Matt Conant

Cast: Britney Brazill, James Rolfe

Controls

This is the promotional teaser for “Controls,” a neo-noir concept from Cinevore Studios. Game journalist Zara Southard is about to find an adventure where she least suspects it. A mysterious woman, Naomi Arroyo shows up at her door one day with an unusual request: to help determine the reason for the increasingly aberrant behavior of her husband Richard, an acclaimed game developer, and one of Zara’s idols.

This project was filmed long ago as a proof-of-concept for a video game neo-noir. Then Ready Player One came out and we kinda backburnered this forever.

Director: Matt Conant
Writer: Matt Conant
Cast: Paige Rien, Diana Leoni, Bryan Donoghue
