History Animation / FilmFilmFilm

* AlienGeometries: the movie studio looks ''trippy''.

* PrimadonnaDirector: Played with and parodied. The director may be an easily-angered dictatorial perfectionist, but he also really loves his job and has to endure a lot of pressure from the studio.
* RealityIsUnrealistic: Lampshaded in the short. They have to use a water hose to film a rain scene, and when the real rain starts they stop shooting.

* SpeakingSimlish: The entire cast.
* SpecialEffectsFailure: PlayedForLaughs in-universe.
* ThunderEqualsDownpour
* TroubledProduction: Also PlayedForLaughs in-universe.
* WhenItRainsItPours

* WritersBlock: The scriptwriter suffers from one, but is saved by a muse.

* GagBoobs: Clapperboard lady (assistant director). She looks rectangular.

* DoingItForTheArt: In-universe examples.
** The director will make as many takes as needed until the actors will get it just right, no matter how dangerous it is.
** The operator is introduced working on some odd pet project involving filming fishes upside-down.
** Same for the sound engineer and a mosquito.

* PreProductionHell

%%* AffectionateParody: Of movie-making in general.

%%* DevelopmentHell: Parodied in-universe.
* DoingItForTheArt: In-universe example. The director will make as many takes as needed until the actors will get it just right, no matter how dangerous it is.

%%* GagBoobs: Clapperboard lady.
%%* INeedAFreakingDrink: Or another dose of tranquilizers, in the director's case.

* CameraTricks: The cameraman is quite fond of these. The first time we see him, he is filming a fish bowl while upside down. Later, we see him filming a horse chase, while being right under the stampede.

* FreezeFrameBonus: The piece of the storyboard we see during the funeral/wedding scene contains names of the movie's apparent protagonist and his bride: Nikita and Natalya.

* AffectionateParody: Of movie-making in general.

* DevelopmentHell: Parodied in-universe.

* GagBoobs: Clapperboard lady.
* INeedAFreakingDrink: Or another dose of tranquilizers, in the director's case.

* LighterAndSofter: In-universe. After ExecutiveMeddling kicks in, the director is forced to reshoot an "[[TearJerker overly depressing]]" funeral and mourning scene as a bright and joyful wedding scene.

* NeverWorkWithChildrenOrAnimals: The animals aren't a problem, except that the animal handlers [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext accidentally bring a lion instead of a cow]]. The little girl seems to have been the biggest challenge during the production.

* GagBoobs: Clapperboard lady

* INeedAFreakingDrink: Or another dose of Valium, in the director's case.

* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: The director in the short looks suspiciously like Creator/SergeiEisenstein (even if Khitruk himself says that the director was modeled after another person) and the movie they're filming looks too much like a certain [[Film/IvanTheTerrible historical flick set in medieval Russia]].

* ExecutiveMeddling: Even when everything else that can go wrong does go wrong, ''this'' is still the biggest obstacle to getting the film made at all.
