High Concept

A pitch-perfect 1970s BBC nature documentary about the "Common Garden Gnome" — played completely straight. A distinguished narrator chronicles the territorial behaviors and social hierarchies of ceramic garden gnomes with absolute scientific gravity. The comedy is in total commitment to the format: the narrator never winks, the gnomes never move on screen.

Visual Style

"1970s BBC Mockumentary — Muted earth tones, soft 16mm grain, deadpan narrator"
