‘The Maker’ is a Parody of Those Hipster Short Films

Many of the short documentary films about artisan makers these days follow the same recipe — things like slow, dramatic music, close-up shots with a super shallow depth of field, and more. Photographer Patrick Kehoe decided to parody that style.

His creation is the 5-minute short film above, titled “The Maker.” It’s about one man’s enduring passion… for making toast.

The film was shot using a Canon C100 Mark II and a Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 II lens, filmed in C Log, and graded with the Lumetri plugin in Adobe Premiere Pro CC.

“More than anything, we hope it inspires you to follow your dreams,” Kehoe writes.
