Watch Olivia Wilde Direct Herself in Her Vogue Cover Video

[gentle music]

[Voiceover] I haven t been in a fashionny thing

in a minute. It s fun.

I ve seeing these vogue shots,

They ll probably have me doing some kind

of clever little voiceover at some point.

At least, I don t have to answer 4 million questions.

I mean, they could have a little bit more

of a narrative arc.

Wait. [sighs]

They should try something cool like this.

Don t mind me staring into the distance

like an absolute bad-ass flipping my hair low

because I m on the cover of Vogue bitches.

This is, I love these.

These are so good.

I m always such a fan every time.

They re so clever, they re so funny.

I was excited.

By the way, if there s anything you want me to do,

you just tell me, okay?

I m so easy.

So you just say it, I m gonna do it.

Just do it. We could though, you know? No.

Okay.

All right, yeah.

[murmurs]

Can I just see that?

If there s time,

there s a thought that, I m so bad, I m so bad.

Okay.

[Participant] No, no, no.

I m so bad. Do you have a clipboard?

Oh yeah, here you go.

I m so bad.

Oh yeah, we can...

Sorry, look at me.

[Olivia gags]

Sorry. It s just that, there s this one idea.

If you want it, you can use it because it s good.

Okay. Okay.

Here we go. So here s what we do.

Okay. We start on the ground, dirty gritty.

We use one of these super wide lenses,

it makes everything cool. We stay low, move super close,

and I m just standing there and it s weird.

And then putting floating drapes, and then we re off.

And then we crash zoom on my face. More closeups.

It s intense...

[Participant] 100 %

transitions, you know,

then we all go all the way around here,

interpretive dance check, super sexy, delicate.

And then we cut to two objects,

and things like dried flowers, a rap chair, or a TV,

a TV with static mixed media.

Can we get those?

And then, ooh-ooh, grass.

Yes, yes, yes. Tall, tall grass. Where are we?

We should ve lose ourselves.

We don t know we re close.

And then, oh shit, neon.

We have to have a neon moment.

Then all of a sudden we rotate all the way around

for no reason, you catch me out of nowhere.

Here hello, we have to have slow-mo.

We have to have something on fire. No Someone is on fire.

Step pick, love it.

This is going to work.

That s all it is.

[Participant] Great

[Participant] Incredible,

I m going to give this [Inaudible]. Thank you so much.

Excellent. Is that okay? You don t have to use it.

You don t have to use it at all.

This is her...

[Olivia] Just take a look and then we got to get it out.

Let s do it.

Okay. Ready? And action.

[gentle music]

[Voiceover] I never knew working with myself

could be such a nightmare.

I should have, asked Emily Blunt or Sienna Miller.

I have one more idea.

I have one more idea. Can I just, Ooh, sorry.

[upbeat music]

Great, let s just try it.

No I got it. No I m good.

[Participant] Are you sure?

I got it. Yeah, this is better. It s better this way.

[Participants] Okay.

We re ready to go. Let s roll.

Okay.
