The Best One-Minute Work Break with Blink Twice Films

At the one-minute mark of oxygen deprivation, your brain cells begin to die. Okay, that sounds a little dramatic.

Their film making mantra is perfect for our modern attention span…

Work Break 1: Thriller About Choices

CHAMBER
“YOU HAVE FIFTEEN SECONDS, ONLY ONE OF YOU CAN SURVIVE”

CHAMBER is the first release by Blink Twice Films. We got out of a mental block with this thriller. It also made us realize work is definitely NOT a matter of life or death… or is it?

Work Break 2: Sci-Fi of Possibilities

TOUCH
“THERE’S OVER SEVEN BILLION PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ALL CAPABLE OF MAKING A CONNECTION”

These days, we see a lot of people “embracing their super-powers” on social media. TOUCH takes it to a whole new level. This fast paced visual stunner is about a woman who has the ability to see into the future. Our big question for you is what would you do if you had this gift?

Work Break 3: Dram-medy of Courage

INITIATION
“JUST DO IT, DON’T OVER THINK IT, JUST GO IN THERE AND DO IT”

Is it so easy to say one thing and actually go through with it? We tend to over think, which often paralyzes us. This film reminds us to have perspective on the outcome of our actions. This approach would simply make things so much simpler. INITIATION was the perfect hilarious work break we desperately needed on a really long, long day!
