"Artwashers" by Friday Siamendes is a pretty hilarious pseudo-documentary about the clean-up crew who manage a virtual art museum. Great writing, visual gags, and voice acting.
"Artwashers" is on my shortlist for the University of Western Australia's machinima contest this year (click here to see all the entries), which I'm helping judge along on this criterion.
