JML Entertainment Announces Plans for New Short Film "Entry Level"
Los Angeles, CA -- (SBWire) -- 04/17/2013 --This week producers of a new comedy short film about human cloning are pitching online to raise funding in a move that has become popular among filmmakers.
Writer, comedian and filmmaker, Javier Ortiz, is turning to crowdfunding for his first short film ENTRY LEVEL, a narrative about a recent college grad trying to find his first real job in the corporate world. While working at a retail shop the lead character uncovers a dark secret from his employer when he discovers his boss is using the space as an illegal lab for human cloning. Co-workers are being used in the experiments.
The story is a cross between Office Space and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. “Many events are loosely based on true events that happened to me when I was unable to find a job in my field, except for the cloning part. My brain just works out in weird ways sometimes and I always imagine something cool would happen in those mysterious doors at places I worked at, but that was never the case,” Ortiz said.
For the past year Javier Ortiz has also been a member of the group Dumbshit Mountain. They received lots of media coverage after being featured on Tosh.0, Yahoo News, Newsweek, Cracked.com and others.
