Premises like these have been spun out into far longer-running sitcoms, but we'll settle for an amusing five-minute web video instead. Fernando Martins is a Brazilian photographer with Câmera Clara Photography Studio which, faced with increasing competition from cheaper stock image libraries, decided to track down Jesper Bruun, a Danish model that has been dubbed the "world's most downloaded man" for his ubiquity in advertising materials (though his agent disagrees). Martins wanted to "see what he has to take so many works from me." What follows is an awkward few minutes where the two get to know each other over caipirinhas and learn to accept their respective places in the world. All in the service of promoting Câmera Clara Photography Studio, of course.
