Big break.
Joe Bereta and Luke Barats, two film students from Washington, have
signed a deal with Break.com to create original content clips. The first
of them will be a parody of the Web site Facebook.com and should be out
later this month. The duo had earned the attention of Break.com with
their Interact shorts "Cubicle Wars 2006" and "Happy
Mother's Day."
"We've given them a blank slate," said Keith
Richman, chief executive of Break.com. Richman said Break.com's
offerings include about 2,500 videos online at any given time.
"We put eight new ones a day roughly," Richman said,
adding that Bereta and Barats' "Cubicle Wars 2006" has
already drawn about 1 million page views.
