The Story: An experimental short that delves into the lives of three people, touching on issues involving sex, drugs, murder and suicide.
Production Notes: A project made for fun. The band Incubus and their manager Steve Rennie have seen the video and said, “I saw the Sick Sad Little World video and that was my introduction to Youtube. That is what made me and the band start to wonder if something like this could actually work. A triumph of creativity over budget. And [by the way] if it did work out that would be THE OFFICIAL VIDEO for the single.” Renman is referring to the “I Dig Incubus” music video contest, which SSLW inspired him to start.
