Fisher-Price My First Short Film

Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you, the first official ListenToLeon.net short film:

Can You Smell What Barak is Cooking?

I got tired of trying to figure out how to use the high-end software, so I just fooled around in Windows Movie Maker and ended up with this. Once I get good at editing videos, it’s OVER!!! I’m taking over the world!

Thanks to my cousin, Christian Washington, whose impression of The Rock and comments about Mike Huckabee inspired me to go beyond what I wrote the other day, and take it to the next level. Special thanks to Rob Cosgrove of YAP Improv for letting me throw a quarter at his chest, repeatedly. Also, I have to thank Bill Jones for operating my camera and giving me a few angles to choose from…Which came in handy, since the editing is on the poor side.

Either way, enjoy the clip, give me some feedback, and if you like it, send it to your friends. I hope y’all find this funny. I better not have sacrificed my beard and moustache for nothing! I’m walking around with a naked chin and upper lip…and I did it ALL FOR YOU!

    You’s a fool. Lookin’ like Tay Zonday. LOL.

    That was funny though. Unpolished, but funny.

    @ Kayellejaye, that clip is NO budget, and it’s the first video I’ve ever attempted to edit…I kind of went for that “craptacular” tongue-in-cheek appeal, since I still have a lot to learn ;)

    Thanks @ Opinionated Diva

    The Nation is similar to the wino’s needs… The power of a quarter… change? Oh I’m crying with laughter.

    But you do have a nice chin though. Seriously, my coworker shaved his beard and looked like a totally diff person. He had no chin what so ever. Just a long neck that lead to his bottom lip. I asked him to grow it back because it scared me a little. Couldn’t look at him for two weeks.

    You know how you watch someone and you’re cringing because you don’t know what they’ll say next? Yeah, that’s how I felt. It was funny and cute.
