All in a Day's Work (2012) Online
Chicago's St.Vitus Improv Workshop has collected sketches created with the singular goal of taking ideas and filming them - in a single day, and on a zero-to-micro budget. Four stories have been worked from either a script idea, or an improvised scenario brought in by a writer or a member of the workshop, and riffed on/improvised in front of the camera on the day of the shoot. In common to all of the stories are a feel and affection for the city of Chicago, and carrying on a tradition of improvisational comedy that has its roots in the city, including its references to personal relationships, current social trends and pop-culture media tropes.

Each story was filmed entirely in one day.
"Unreleased: The Original Version" was originally entered in a slightly different form for a 24-hour film race. The extraneous elements required for the competition have been edited out of this version.
"The Chase" was originally produced by Gabriel Younes as a student project, with the title "C.R.E.A.M." Johnny Jozwiak wrote the original screenplay for this segment. Tony Papaleo contributed script ideas and re-edited the soundtrack for inclusion in this anthology. Also, it was filmed with a hand-wound 16mm Bolex.
