The Artist Alliance is a fast paced comedic mockumentary, that follows three clueless artist from Denmark trying to succeed the American dream. In it’s purest form, the story is about our own naive journey as an artist. The film was shot guerilla style in the streets of New York, most of the dialog is improvised and many things were figured out on the spot. The characters are over exaggerated and stereotypical, in order to give some good laughs and be relatable. Everyone knows an artist who takes themselves way too seriously, or someone from their hometown moving to cities like New York and Los Angeles to pursue their dream, even though they didn’t have any talent. We were inspired by films like ¨Borat¨ and ¨What we do in the shadows¨. We wanted the real settings that ¨Borat¨ had, and the relationship between the characters of ¨What we do in the shadows¨. What we did diffrent was having the crew members being part of the cast, which gives the opportunity for a lot of funny scenarios.We hope the audience will laugh as much as we did filming it, and maybe even inspire them to work with their friends.
