We're Chris W. Smith and Jack De Sena (aka Chris & Jack). We've been friends for years and love making high-quality, high-concept sketch comedy. Chris was a Blue Man in Blue Man Group. Jack voiced Sokka in Avatar the Last Airbender. In 2016 we united to create this channel, confusingly titled “Chris & Jack”, which has served as a shared platform to write, produce, direct, edit, and star in our own stuff. Also, we were also ghosts the whole time you were reading this. Supernatural twist!

I just assumed it was that their eyesight was different from ours. Bit like how screens often look wrong when viewed from a camera because they rely in glitches in human vision, so alien races might not be able to see the movies we show.

I love the way they greet each other as that’s similar to real cultures A handshake was to show that neither was holding a weapon a salute was to raise the faceplate of your helmet it’s logical to assume that shaking someone’s thigh to make sure they don’t have something holstered would very much be a real thing

[@pumkin610]

Checking for weapons almost seems distrustful and rude like you always expect the person in front of you to attack you but it could be a way to show that you're honest and open and not carrying a weapon.

[@SuperDestroyerFox]

@@pumkin610it might also be to show how you are always on your guard. Sort of like how in some cultures having your eyes open while bowing is a sign to show how you’ve learned a lot and to never put your guard down while it can also be disrespectful showing how you don’t trust someone you are bowing to.

We were worried the three beeps might take away from the end a bit. But slotting in the yellow up front brought everything together that made that green payoff in a big way. Thanks so much for noticing!

Thanks Apaul! We're enjoying that you're enjoying what we're doing!

This was supposed to be a comedy? 😭 😭 😭

[@somequasiparticles]

The hero's journey. World building, the character's answering the call to adventure. Then a series of trials, descending into hell until facing the rock bottom challenge (three sections within this section). Then redemption and realization of true self, true purpose, true power, etc. Mel Gibson comes to mind with this - he just sees how to create a compelling story structure. Introduction, Adventure/Trials, Climax, Redemption.

[@sergio_jose]

Truly shows what yellow, three beeps, and green can do 🙏

[@charliecharliewhiskey9403]

It's nice that the alien can actually take criticism of his movie with a smile, instead of asking for an honest appraisal and then getting mad at an honest appraisal

I love that it’s the same formula we’ve seen so many times, parodied, and yet the formula is just so effective that it still works. This is a tale of human experience, and humans love it.

[@anton8064]

Oh, I get it. First you establish the character of Yellow: one strong solid show of the colour, which signifies Yellow as strong and sure, along with a jarring and slightly slightly uneasy noise, which signifies Yellow's discontent with life. Then you establish the feeble and timid Blue. Blue's insecurity is shown by his wavering colour. It beeped a poetic three times; The rule of thirds. Then as the two colours unite into one finally happy Green. They completed each other: The colour stayed on firmly, but the noise was now soothing, instead of agitated. Two base colours created one beautiful new one. And so they were together as Green until the end of time. Truly a touching piece. As if Piet Mondrian himself made a film.

Our protagonist never thought to inquire further, but I’m so curious… like do they interpret colour differently than us? Some kind of advanced synesthesia or something would explain it. I know that’s not the point, but it’s a cool thought

[@davidwuhrer6704]

I think it is in part about how a different species with different perceptions and a different life cycle would produce art that is not at all relatable to us, but we would still be able to detect patterns in it that we could replicate. And the joke is that that would be enough to win a Pleurig award. Although, looking at the Academy…

[@wonderdogger]

You make such INSANELY well produced/directed/edited/performed/graded/everything, funny content. How does this channel not have ALL the subscribers!?

[@rigira]

The people of CVX-339 perceive reality differently. To humans the movie looks like a set of colors and beeps. The people of CVX-339, on the other hand, are tuned into the *slight* frequencies in the beeps and boops. When one tunes into these frequencies (if they have the ability), they are able to experience the plethora of dialogue, story, and imagery. The same goes for the colors. The colors emit a certain light wave that is perceived differently than humans therefore--

[@johnnymitchellcollier]

or maybe they just don't have the same pattern recognition we have as humans

[@mattsven]

This was actually pretty low budget, they're just good at making low budget look really good. Great VFX, color grading, and camera work.

[@SteveMcGillis]

Generally you have a budget, whatever it is on projects like these, and then you run out. At that point when people are working for free essentially, it becomes more about the passion and effort to get it done. Much more gratifying to get the final result to the finish line in great form rather than a paycheck.
