The stack of overdue invoices
“{{YEARS}} of writing 'just following up.'”
Vertical 9:16 selfie video, medium close-up, phone on a small tripod. a 52-year-old Puerto Rican woman with shoulder-length dark curly hair streaked with grey, red-framed reading glasses, a black blazer over a white blouse and a small gold cross pendant sits in a small office in the late afternoon, grey filing cabinets and a framed bookkeeping certificate behind her, a laptop on a wooden desk, warm desk lamp and blinds casting soft stripes. She lifts a thick stack of printed invoices stamped "overdue" and drops it on the desk, then looks over her red glasses into the lens. She says: "{{YEARS}} of writing 'just following up.'" Static camera, warm desk lamp, blind stripes on the wall, natural skin texture, shot on iPhone front camera, unpolished. No captions or on-screen text.
