Films
While we do occasionally dabble in advertising, film is our true focus. It is what we love to do, plain and simple. We have been producing our own short films since 2007, and fully intend to tackle a feature length film when the time is right (having several in the works). Because our main production team consists of two people only, most of our films have tended toward small casts out of necessity, so we have learned to make the most of very little. This experience has proved invaluable when working with larger teams.

I Gotta Feeling - Dungeons and Dragons Parody
Technically, this video was created for "Tiger and Rose," our ongoing YouTube project. However, it was a large step outside of our usual material for the show, and represents a significant increase in energy and time spent. We recruited a large cast, wrote and recorded a parody version of "I Gotta Feeling" by The Black Eyed Peas, choreographed a dance.... well, you should just watch for yourself.
Metaphor - Katy Perry "Firework" Parody
Technically, this video was created for "Tiger and Rose," our ongoing YouTube project. However, this video stands out from the majority of Tiger and Rose episodes in production value and energy spent. We felt it deserved its own section here on our site. This video is NSFW (not safe for work) due to sexually suggestive subject matter. Or whatever they say.
Angels Unaware
Angels Unaware was created for "Project: Direct" for the Sundance Film Festival 2009
This was our very first project using our new video camera, a Canon HV30. Michelle filmed the entire thing with no experience on the more complex workings of the camera, since we were on a deadline and had less than a week to get the entire thing done, including editing. As a result, there are some exposure issues and a few focus issues, which of course we notice more now that we know they could have been eliminated. But that's just hindsight. We believe the film turned out well regardless, and it was an interesting leap into more serious and emotional subject-matter, as opposed to our usual lighthearted comedies.
The Best Fisherman in the World
This is a 10 minute short film we submitted to the Stella Artois Film Festival in 2009, in hopes of winning $50,000 and a chance to meet Kevin Spacey in New York. We made top ten, out of well over a thousand entries. While we didn't win the contest, being top ten meant that our film was viewed by Kevin Spacey, Laurence Fishburne, Dame Judi Dench, Sacha Baron Cohen, and James Blunt, the celebrity judges of the competition.
Created for i48 2011 (Idaho 48-hour Film Festival), Thunder Rack was written, filmed, and edited in 48 hours. This is not an official Two Cats Fighting production, because there were people involved from various production teams under the name "The Fighting Cocks." This one is hosted on the YouTube channel of our friends over at Airsoft Riot, one of whom was our cameraman on this project!
Tiger and Rose is an ongoing comedy show on YouTube. We post new episodes every chance we get! There are no rules to this show, anything goes. However, the main thrust of the show is typically commentary about current events and pop culture. We each play multiple characters throughout the show, and also frequently parody popular films, music videos, and popular events. The show is not censored in any way, and almost always contains a great deal of profanity and non-family-friendly humor. You have been warned!
