Evidence of Insurability

[Project Title]
CAPITAL, LOCATION, & AGENCY

Evidence of Insurability is a short critical design fiction film that explores a near future where location tracking and ride surveillance programs collide in a new maps application.

[Overview]

Evidence of Insurability poses questions about our willingness to give up agency at the direction of corporate interests.

Insurance companies hold an incredible amount of financial power over everyday individuals. In hand with technological upgrades to cars, where more sensors are embedded, new forms of monitoring and tracking are already on the rise.

What once felt far off and abstract is made real here. From the shady, entrapment-style on boarding to how artificial voice agents are deployed to make it next to impossible to cancel your enrollments.

The film was a catalyst for personal reflection amongst viewers—drawing out fears for parents and other family members who viewers saw as ill prepared for the future.

[Tools]

Evidence of Insurability was written and shot in two weeks. The film was was produced in under a week in Seattle, WA, and filmed Lake Forest Park, WA. The script was written in a weekend and subsequently storyboarded and shot listed within the following two days. Due to unforeseen circumstances and a medical emergency, we pivoted the main actors and shooting locations on the morning of the shoot, re-writing on the fly. After the shoot, I began a rapid three-week post-pipeline that included screen replacements and compositing work.
