The Asians At Work video was created by a couple of Asians looking to make fun of themselves and their subculture. It is a hilarious short film that addresses the common photography stereotypes that many Asians are guilty of performing when they have a camera in their hands. From getting that impossible shot using a Matrix Stance, Sniper Stance or something equally embarrassing to taking multiple selfies in one go, the Asians At Work film looks to both the female and male population for inspiration.

Put together by JinnyboyTV, a studio that launched in 2012, the Asians At Work short film shows off their sense of humor as well as their skills behind a camera themselves. Perhaps it will bring awareness to the Asian community.
