Poor dude.

This is a sketch of "David." You might notice that life has kicked him in the balls and laughed at him. This was the general premise for my original follow-up to my thesis film, "The Sick Day," about a number cruncher who fakes, yes, you guessed it, a sick day, only to have life destroy his plans for hooky. For some reason it didn't work out, the outline I wrote was just a bunch of poor-luck gags strung together, and I felt that I was compressing too much into a 3 minute running time. I made Road Test instead. I still want to make Sick Day, it's kind of back-burning at the moment while I prep the cops n prisoners chase film. Maybe it'll return as a web series on my site.
