RealcookN.tv is a weekly cooking web show that I direct, shoot, edit and distribute. The show is shot either in my home kitchen or on location in the kitchens of some of our viewers. Episodes showcase Real Cooking for Real People.
I heard a song by Disturbed called Land of Confusion. It’s a remake of the song of the same title recorded in the 80’s by Genesis. The original has long been one of my favorites for years. When I heard the remake, I instantly enjoyed it.
As I listened, I was inspired to create a music video. I’m a huge fan of the Star Wars saga and thought that this song could be visually interpreted using the visuals from Revenge of the Sith. The confusion and conflict sung in the song would easily parallel the fall or Anakin Skywalker, and the rise of the Galactic Empire. So I’ve now created my first “fan film” of sorts.
EAH was launching a new campaign in which they were branding their company as the hero for health benefit troubles. Central to this campaign was EA Man. EA Man was designed as a superhero who combated the hight costs associated with medical benefits. His weapon was the ring of protection. “It’s the Power of the Ring”.
To introduce this character and campaign, I created a short “Batman-ish” movie that was shown at the Christmas party that year. It also played on the website for a few months.
