American novelist and poet Jack Kerouac once said, "The world you see is just a movie in your mind." This is the mantra that FUNPOV sticks too.
FUNPOV is a series of short movies, starring random people on the street. The short movies were filmed from the real-life and point-of view of the creator. A man of mystery, you never actually see the guy filming, as all of the films are shot from his point-of view. You do, however, hear his humorous voice and see his hands (most likely) high fiving someone when they least expect it! You might even catch a glimpse of his shadow riding a bike along a busy street.
These movies follow real episodes in my life, with one constant purpose: interact with strangers on the street, asking them to connect with me, and smile in this moment.
FUNPOV aims to create two movies per month. You can support the making of these short films by donating $1 per movie. The goal is to use the movies to reflect our fast-changing culture, and to discuss ideas and topics for the future.
Where you've come from is probably not more important then where you are going. So tell the story of your future, and then get there.
