DIGITAL SHORT
"Freedom"

DIRECTED + EDITED BY: JACOB WOLSTENCROFT 
SAM: JULIA ULLRICH
KELLY: OLIVIA VALLI
Samantha Brown balances on the edge of her future, car keys in hand. As she sits in the driver's seat, she faces a choice: will she follow in her mother's footsteps, take the dare of her impetuous best friend and chart a new path?
Created during the COVID-19 pandemic in October of 2020, this short film is of a section from the musical THE MAD ONES, comprising the song "Freedom". It was developed as a part of the 2020 THE MAD ONES Virtual Lab and was made possible through a new digital licensing agreement with Concord Theatricals. The Lab spanned 11 time zones, bringing together over 200 theatre-makers from across the globe, and created 78 digital shorts which launched THE MAD ONES Engine. 
The Engine is a web platform designed to create seamless, randomized versions of the entire musical using all the short videos submitted by participants in the Lab. Each time you start the Engine, a new version of the show plays.
