FML episode 8, by 10SecondTraumas.com

10ST are still putting together videos inspired by FMLs published on the website. It's always a great surprise for us to discover the manner in which they did so, the angle they took to shoot funny and/or embarrassing situations. It's quite difficult to transpose short text-based stories to film, and we reckon they pull it off with a particular freshness and bundles of energy!

 

It's official, everyone is now allowed to let rip massive farts in bed, as well as give their views in comment form under this video - so don't hold back either means of expression!

 

ABRACADABRA, I now transform you into an... ostrich! Yeah, I know, it's not very hot but that's all I can do for now, because I don't have the chance to Hogwarts. Okay, I'm going to stop here because I didn't read Harry Potter and I don't know anything else about it. Oh yeah, there's a ginger love story right? Okay, I'll pass.
Today we're welcoming an uncommon artist, and that's not because she's japanese that I say that. But just read the interview, you'll understand!  

 

 

-So! Present yourself! Name, surname, why did your parents called you that way.
-My name is Florence Akiko Minowa, but I go by Flo usually. My parents named me after the city in Italy.

-That's a great name and city. Where are you from?
-I'm from Tokyo, Japan. I was born and raised here, but I received an American education at the American School in Japan, so I'm more fluent in English than Japanese.

-Okay that's uncommon. Why did your parents gave you an american education?
-Well, it's more my mother's preference. She's Japanese as well but she was raised in Southern California, and moved to Japan only after graduating from UCLA. So she wanted me to be bilingual as well.
-And thanks to that, you're now featured on FML. How old are you and what's your job?
-Haha thank you. Yes. I'm currently 22 and I'm unemployed since I'm still a full time undergraduate at Soka University of America in California.

 

-In the art section I guess?
-Actually, not at all! Humanities is my concentration, but it's a liberal arts school. I continue art on my own time basically, more as a passion. But I'm looking into pursuing it for grad school.

-Wow, that's uncommon too! What are your nex projects?
-In art?
-In life!
-Ha! Okay, well I'm kinda at the crux of figuring that out. Career-wise I've yet to figure it out. But my plans for this summer is to take a couple months traveling around Europe. I'll be living in France, actually, through all of July to learn French! haha After that, I'll be backpacking to Switzerland, Austria and Germany using the rail. A little traveling is always helpful for inspiration!

 

-Why did you choose this FML story?-Haha well, I've been an enormous /enormous/ Harry Potter fan since I can remember and I've been drawing fan arts of J.K.Rowling's characters since high school--still do, today, which I share on my online gallery. But when I stumbled upon this FML about a year ago, I guffawed and shared it with all my friends. Then this opportunity came up and I just thought this was my chance! Honestly, I would loooove for any of my friends to do this to me! *hint hint*
-Let's hope they read this interview. Thank you very much Florence, that was fun! 
Little reminder, Japan still needs a little help, if you want, you can donate anything, even a single dollar, right here. Thank you!

This new video was put together by Ben Giroux and Ray Chase, Co-Creators of AwkwardUniverse.com (check out their website, these guys kick some serious ass).

Ben contacted us a short while ago to offer us to produce some short films based on FMLs. We agreed straight away because he's a very nice guy, borderline crazy and a very talented actor. We absolutely adore him. Watch this ("Unhitched") - this is gold!

Ben and Ray now create and produce their own videos, such as the one we're presenting to you today. We hope that we will be able to go on collaborating with them so that we can offer you even more FML videos. And don't forget to go and have a look at their website, AwkwardUniverse.com, you'll enjoy it! Yes, we're being a bit pushy about it - no, it's not advertising, it's that we really like it.

You don't have to know Narnia to enjoy today's illustration, because our artist of the day is a pretty good one, and we sure would like to see more DA accounts as beautiful as this one. Don't waste any more time and go check this amazing portfolio. Okay, have you seen it? Pretty impressive huh? Well, I'm running out of compliments, so let's start the interview.

-Let's get started shall we! What's your name and surname?
-Name is K.E. Ruediger, I don't want to disclose my full name to the interwebs, but here’s a hint to what my first name is: the first 3 letters of my initials are the first 3 letters in name and my sister shares the same initials! Thats not confusing at all.

-... Not at all.... How old are you ? (I can't wait to see if you'll answer with a calculus)
-Haha I'm 21

-And where do you live?
-Dallas, Texas
-Am I allowed to talk about the TV show or would JR be an untouchable myth ?
-Lol I'm such a loser I've never even seen the show.

-So I won't spoil you by telling you that Jack Shepard die on the island. What's your job?
-Right now I'm just a student. I do some freelancing on the side however, but nothing to get excited about.

 

-How did you become "an artist" ?
-Um, I can't remeber all the details, but I do remember when I was little I loved to just draw random pictures all over any extra sheets of paper. When I would visit my moms work I used to sit on her computer and draw crappy christmas trees in ms paint. I started watching pokemon and sailormoon was when I got a bit older and got into drawing that way, and drew constantly. So I will always thank pokemon for being a part of my inspiration. Which, totally isn't silly at all..nooo..

-Pokemon isn't silly. Wobbuffet is. What are your projects?
-None at the moment, just focused on graduating from school right now.

 

-We'll pray for you. Why did you choose this story?
-Thanks I will need it. I chose this story because the other ones listed they seemed sad and unfortunate to me. The one I chose was unfortunate, but I laughed, so I thought I'd try that one.


-And you also chose it because you have a crush on Peter right?
-Haha oh gosh I think Peters a bit too pedobait for me


-I think we're good! Okay, I'm in a good mood, you can say what you want! (Yes, it'll be published)
-I LOVE YOU LEONARDO DICAPRIO call me
