Infinity Ink 'Full Capacity' by Ben Reed

Luke Bather - 20th July 2016

This is plainly hilarious.

Ben Reed's new video for Infinity Ink's Full Capacity begins with a title card that reads 'Shadwell & Anners Security and Community Theatre Presents Full Capacity or: The Raver Whose Brain Escaped'. Frankly, I'm already 100% sold.

Of course there is more. A 4:3 aspect ratio, a low-rent theatre setting, a caveman and four bouncers. It feels like a crazed development on Reed's Blur video from last year, but his commitment to going fully-strange with it pays off with surreal comic moments piled on top of one another.

Ben Reed incorporates wigs, talking brains and chairs in lieu of horses, to tell the tale that, on the face of it, appears to be about a man unable to enter a nightclub. But really this is a story about life, death and the vital minutiae of everything in between.

Okay, not really - but it is very funny.
