Bet you didn't know, the FBI even makes short films...what's even more surprising is that it's actually managed to grab my attention, peak my interest, and keep me watching until the end. Almost. If it weren't for my growing concern for procrastination, I might have ending up watching the entirety through for this 36 minutes and 11 second feature which seems like it was created by a decently budgeted Hollywood studio of sorts. Granted, it might seem as if parts of this short film, which they refer to as a "short video" (yes, "short" was used in the description but when you click the link provided for more info, they do eventually refer to it as a short film) and had released it as part of a nationwide campaign to raise awareness of the growing economic espionage threat; was actually based on a popular TV serious. Particularly, those who were fans of NBC's Heroes (2006) might find this short film reminiscent of a particular character and will come to find that the title's inclusion of "Company Man" is very fitting for the main character, In any case, and not in any way, shape, or form is this a mockery to the talented members who put this short film together, but if 6 years later we can't manage to pull 200k views in the same amount of time for our short film, we'll have to tell people that even the FBI made a short film that garnered more views than we did.
The alternative perspective: If the FBI, whose primary role is to protect the U.S. from terrorists attacks and protection the constitution, are able to produce a high-quality short film as entertaining as it is educational, then surely as individuals with experience in videography and photography can put together something just as high in production value as they could!
Nay Sayers: Sure, if you have the budget to hire a third party studio to cast, direct, and produce it for you.
