Dave Made a Maze Page #3

Synopsis: 'Dave Made A Maze' re-imagines classic 80's adventure films with a modern comedic edge and a higher body count. Dave, an artist who has yet to complete anything significant in his career, builds a fort in his living room out of pure frustration, only to wind up trapped by the fantastical pitfalls, booby traps, and critters of his own creation. Ignoring his warnings, Dave's girlfriend Annie leads a band of oddball explorers on a rescue mission. The handmade fantasy world comes to life with puppetry, stop-motion animation, and in-camera optical illusions, re-igniting the tactile sense of wonder from the movies of our childhoods.

in your living room,

you're like, what the...

There's a giant maze

in my living room!

I've heard of people

rearranging the furniture,

but this is

whack-a-doodle crazy!

You give me a sense of that.

So when you're ready.

Just let me know how you felt.

Put it in your own words.

Don't say whack-a-doodle.

That's dumb.

When you're ready,

Ok, just ignore me,

do what you're doing.

We'll put some music over this, it'll

be a montage, it'll be awesome!

Um, can we go in the maze now?

Yeah, can we go in the maze now?

What? No, guys, I'm just

going to fish Dave out.

This is not...

- So we can go in the maze now?

- Yes!

Let's f***ing do this!

Whoa.

What, stop it, guys, stop it!

- It's not finished!

- I'll be right there.

- What's going on?

- We're coming in.

You're not coming in, are you?

- F*** it, let's go.

- Stop!

Go, go, go! Don't look at the

camera, don't look at the camera.

Don't look at the camera!

Go, go, go, go through.

Whoa! My god!

Let's go this way.

Dave?

Maybe this way.

It is bigger.

- It goes down.

- This doesn't make any sense.

Ow!

No problem.

We're gonna...

We'll just turn around.

As long a we're all working

together, this is gonna be fine.

- It's gonna be great.

- Which way?

- Um, wait a second. Hold on.

- What's wrong?

Nothing, hold on,

just give me a second.

No, come on.

Dave!

Hey, hey, not on me,

on the maze. The maze!

Dave?

- Acoustics are different.

- Is that a problem?

Are you bringing

problems to my set?

You're here to provide

solutions, not problems.

- It's just different.

- Dave!

Ok, look, mazes

are very complicated.

Let's just take

a second and relax.

We don't need to

go and get lost.

We just got here.

Every maze has a dead end.

It's just a shame that

we had to find one so soon.

- Look at that.

- What is happening to you?

You're freaking out.

So let's just take a second

and have a breather.

No, don't!

Oh!

This must have taken hours.

It goes all the way up.

Wait, isn't this

the keyboard that you got Dave?

Yep.

At least the box

is being used, huh?

He really used

anything he could find.

Where's the keyboard?

Annie?

- Hey!

- Hey.

Dave? Dave!

Guys, come on!

Whoa.

No, it's fine.

Annie!

More childlike wonder.

Ooh!

Ooh.

Wow.

Why are we stopping?

Where's the second one?

Whoa!

There's gotta be

another way out!

Guys!

Get in the mouth!

Go! Come on!

I got it!

When I first heard about Dave

being trapped in a maze, um...

Seriously.

Yeah, Annie,

could you sit there?

Annie, just, Ok, there we go.

Just sit there. Ok.

Yeah. All right.

This is pretty overwhelming, huh?

Let's talk about this.

Yeah, I guess.

- Probably talk about...
