#Viral: Mockumentary
Created as a college project for a Video III course, this mockumentary was developed as an alternative to a traditional documentary assignment. After pitching the concept to my professor, I wrote and produced a scripted mock‑documentary exploring internet fame, performance, and the pressure to go viral.
I co‑wrote the film with lead actor Joseph Penna and directed, edited, and structured it to mirror the tone and pacing of contemporary documentary formats. The story follows a character whose pursuit of online attention quickly escalates, blurring the line between authenticity and spectacle. The project allowed me to explore narrative structure, comedic timing, and character‑driven storytelling within a documentary framework.
