The challenge

Create a remix of the “Lock ’Em Up” video with Balajiss replacing the original older man as the grandpa.

Use the videos below as inspiration for the setup, pacing, and style, while giving the remix its own creative twist.

What we're looking for

• Balajiss as Grandpa: Make him the clear replacement for the older man in the scene.
• A recognizable remix: Keep enough of the original setup and comedic rhythm that viewers can recognize the reference.
• A polished edit: Aim for clean cuts, well-timed reactions, and clear audio. Any added dialogue or captions should feel like part of the scene.

Bonus points

Make the script funny. Go beyond a simple character swap with original dialogue, a strong punchline, or an unexpected twist.

The humor should work with the scene rather than feel pasted on top of it.

Deliverable

One finished, shareable video remix featuring Balajiss as the grandpa.

Use the reference videos as a guide for the short-form format and overall feel.

Reference videos
