Illuminated (2011) watch online HD

Vince is a bored worker who questions his mundane existence until he encounters crazy and eccentric people who make it more interesting.

All the voice-over narration was recorded in the same van seen at the beginning.

Originally there was going to be off-screen customers yelling dialogue at Vince during the opening montage, but was cut out when it was decided to be more powerful without spoken dialogue.

The experiences of creators Nick Corbin and Einar Celusta actually working as a cashier was a partial inspiration for some of the scenes.

The film was originally a final project for Nick Corbin's post-production class at Boise State University.

The scenes with the couch and the mall food court were both filmed in an actual studio, Treasure Valley Community Television.

The character of Chris is based on Nick Corbin's amusement of conspiracy theorists, and the mannerisms on his pet dog.

The last shot of the awkward moment between Vince and Chris on the couch was completely improvised on the spot.

Jobe's line of "Godspeed, Spider-Man!" was improvised.

Based on a feature length screenplay co-written by Nick Corbin, Einar Celusta and Leif Celusta.

The entire soundtrack is by public domain music by 4mat, an Internet chip-tune artist.
