![This little film is a spoof on society. More specifically, this silent film comedy is a spoof on both Octo Mom and the man that gave birth in 2008. It's jam-packed with props and gags. Although "The Octo Circus" was edited on Final Cut Pro, I edited this promo trailer on the Avid as I'm trying to learn the darn thing. You can see that the location is my own apt. and not some borrowed hospital room. A very tight space. We had a lot of fun and celebrated Klinger's birthday who plays Dr. Mime.](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BNzA1NDc5OTY5M15BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwMjI2ODA4Mg@@._V1_QL75_UX500_CR0,47,500,281_.jpg)
