Ladies and gents! As always, here is a BTS of making this mini-movie. This video took outrageously long haha. I started working on it in July with tons of research and then in August scripted and shotlisted everything... only to end up throwing it all in the trash. I bit off a project way too big to chew. So I rewrote the scripts and shotlists... only to THROW all that away haha. Started looking at the third event early October and that's what this became :) I feel like I'm at an interesting cross roads where I have all these cool visions and ideas but suck at being realistic with how long all of this will take me. The goal is to upload biweekly and so far... looking at the track record, that's barely happened. The next couple videos will be a practice of, "if I HAD to get a video out in 14 days with no other choice, how would I?" This project meant a lot, a complete flex of my creative toolbox, so all the support means the world. More uploads to come out soon! Promise. All love - Tejas
I want to buy your channel, Tejas, for $1 million! Just kidding, I'm broke af. 😄 What about $200,000 for 20% share of your company? Pity that it takes so long to produce your stuff, but that's the price you have to pay as an unrecognised genius. Maybe hire a project manager or script doctor or something. Reminds me of a Woody Allen movie which he reshot with exactly the same script but different actors. First version is unreleased to this day.
i appreciate the honesty man. the videos you upload are what high production teams uploads, so you're doing all these all by yourself which is amazing. keep it up, no pressure.
It took me a while to find out that BTS here means "behind the scenes". There are many other meanings, such as "better than s*x" or "between the sheets", which, frankly, also make sense. 😄
One minute in and I’m hooked! Keep it up Tejas! You are developing a style that is uniquely your own and bends the rules of what we think is supposed to succeed on the platform. Love following this journey!
as someone who previously worked at instagram as a PM and was there when the cofounders left - you've done an incredible job capturing the story of instagram. kudos
I've had this in my watch later for 2 months now... I honestly have no idea why I never came back sooner - but I'm glad I finally did and this was such a great watch. Disappointed by the low view count but keep going bro!
Very cool video 😊 I think a small thing that would have helped is just simple name badges for the flashbacks. I knew who it was by context but that small thing would quickly clarify so the audience can stay in the story. Really enjoying your stuff excited to see you continue growing
Minute in and I already know this will be a banger. You are one of the most underrated content creator just the editing alone is top tier on top of the writing/acting. 100k by end of this year, calling it!
i've followed your short form content for awhile and this is my first time watching a long form vid of yours, but won't be the last :) keep up the great work!!
All of your videos are amazing, I think it’s worth sacrificing the extra time to make the greatest video possible. Also funny that you said you were at IU Kelley cause that’s where I’m at now, awesome to see your progress keep the work up!
Unexpected video from you dude! But totally love this longer form content. I'm sure it's a hell of an undertaking. Also cool to see all your underlying inspos (bill wurtz for the title and Oppenheimer for the outro sequence). Really nice to meet you at the innovation summit and hope to catch you around NYC soon.
You’re slowly getting there buddy. Aside from the great video I think what you really need to hear is to just take it one day at a time brotha. Sending much love as always and keep producing art!
Y'all went full Oppenheimer at the end. 😂 But incredible video. Even with my goldfish-like attention span I was hooked... Much too my dismay since the length of my sleep tonight will be severely compromised now. Loved the storytelling though. The interplay of narration, acting and actual prop use. Amazing work!!
This video also made me feel OLD! The pace of tech is breathtaking, if you look back, and I'm just a small-time IG user. I'm more into YT and brainy stuff, but your videos are just high comedy! 😆
even if this took months and then thrown away multiple times...it still came out super awesome! 100% can relate to that tho hahaha! keep the uploads coming! super well made!!!
Seeing only 3k in a day I am devastated why are views are so low. I enjoyed the story, the visuals was great. Just why! Maybe one more change of thumbnail will help, I hope so.
lots of my videos have a slow start (I believe due to my inconsistency) but appreciate your support :) A proud project that I'm sure will start doing well the more I build the catalog
@@TejasHullur Yeah, when you build your catalog, youtube will loop new people in your feed for long time, so other video will their spotlight. I really enjoyed what you guys doing, you and Colt are big motivation for me. Good luck!
Wow, great stuff! The acting was a riot! 🤣 Perfect mix of facts and dramatisation. You should call it "framatisation" or something and tm it aggressively. 😄 I'll give you the (c), yw. ❤️

Omar’s acting is pretty good lol

all i can say is wow. amazing writing, amazing editing, kept me hooked the entire time, felt like a feature length film! good work bro fr
Big Tejas fan
Yes sir
Appreciate ya Blancho!

at this point you should sue youtube for not recommending your videos. You are damn too good for youtube man. Keep going.
How this channel doesn't have more subscribers baffles me! Tejas, if you're reading this, keep up the good work and you're time will come.
that's the plan! thanks a ton :)
Lmaoooooo who caught the Oppenheimer inspiration at the end
saw colt throwing the rocks and immediately thought of it
yessir
this is your best video
thanks doddo!
How does this only have 9k views? Great storytelling
I think Colt should keep the beard. Really suits him!
not skipped a single second, this video will slowly going to be pushed to more and more audience. Great job TejasHulllur and team loved the video✌✌
Thanks a ton! I think this one will be a grower, who knows haha, had fun making it!
I've had this in my watch later for 2 months now... I honestly have no idea why I never came back sooner - but I'm glad I finally did and this was such a great watch. Disappointed by the low view count but keep going bro!
This is a masterpiece, I didn't get bored, not even a sec Gracias Tejas
Even as someone who has been on Instagram since the beginning in 2010, this was fascinating and great to watch!
WOW! I wish I got on in those early days
I love this video, great work Tejas!
Very cool video 😊
I think a small thing that would have helped is just simple name badges for the flashbacks. I knew who it was by context but that small thing would quickly clarify so the audience can stay in the story.
Really enjoying your stuff excited to see you continue growing
a very important story told very well. great video bro, keep it up 💚
Minute in and I already know this will be a banger. You are one of the most underrated content creator just the editing alone is top tier on top of the writing/acting. 100k by end of this year, calling it!
Appreciate you! Just need to get consistency up haha

"I THINK WE DID" instant cry moment!!!
love the oppenheimer ending! i think it's time for The Social Network sequel
Glad you caught that!! appreciate you :)
All of your videos are amazing, I think it’s worth sacrificing the extra time to make the greatest video possible. Also funny that you said you were at IU Kelley cause that’s where I’m at now, awesome to see your progress keep the work up!
appreciate the support! enjoy the time at Kelley :)
This needs more exposure!
i love the little acting bits and the music, this entire video is amazing tejas, you never fail to deliver :)
Thank you so much 😀
Unexpected video from you dude! But totally love this longer form content. I'm sure it's a hell of an undertaking. Also cool to see all your underlying inspos (bill wurtz for the title and Oppenheimer for the outro sequence).
Really nice to meet you at the innovation summit and hope to catch you around NYC soon.
HAHA glad you saw the Oppenheimer bit... was curious if people were going to understand that
The music choices in this one are phenomenal, bro! Love the good work, and proud to have helped this video become a reality.

1 day without it is a bit dramatic, maybe a year without it lol
