I'm definitely looking at the example set by hare with interest[0]. Also unironically love Shrek. I once hosted a viewing party of Shrek Retold[1] in my tiny NYC apartment :D [0] [LINK] [1] [VIDEO]

Shrek Retold [VIDEO] is a similar fan-made reproduction, but it's way more polished. The movie is split into roughly 1min sections, with each one done by a different creator. The quality is all over the place, in a hilarious way. One minute it's produced by a professional animator nailing the scenes, then the next minute it's people goofing around in their backyard.

In the book analogy it's closer to transcribing an audio book. In the film analogy, it's closer to Shrek Retold[1](ignoring parody). [1] Shrek Retold [VIDEO]
