In her new short “Speech,” Pilieva weaves together snatches of great speeches by Abraham Lincoln, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon B. Johnson, Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama. The twist is that she tapped five actresses to play the nation’s chief executive.

"I asked strangers to undress each other and get in bed. Nothing else. No rules." So reads the description below "Undress Me," the latest viral video from Tatia Pilieva. That name might not sound familiar now, but remember the "First Kiss" video and all the awkward sexual tension jumping off the screen? She's the one responsible. Pilieva, the "First Kiss" video director, filmed yet another clip, this time in collaboration with Showtime for Masters of Sex. This round, instead of asking strangers to kiss one another for the camera, she told them to take off each other's clothes and hop in the sack. "No rules." We repeat: No rules. Things are about to get out of...

The video opens with a man sitting in bed saying, “It’s nerve-racking,” and then the text: “In 1957, William Masters and Virginia Johnson began asking men and women to undress for science.

Director Tatia Pilieva talked to Et about her 'Undress Me' video, in which 20 strangers are paired, undress each other down to their underwear and go to bed.
You might remember Tatia's "First Kiss" video which went viral earlier this year. That video captured strangers locking lips for the first time. While "First Kiss" caught some awkward moments, "Undress Me" took it to another level.
"Everybody was very excited and also terribly shy," said Tatia. "Not just the people in front of the camera. Sometimes I would even close my eyes."
"Undress Me" is part of a promo campaign for the Showtime series Masters of Sex, which premieres Sunday. Check out the video below!

First Kiss is a three-minute film in which beautiful hipsters snog for the first time. I want to see another version that reflects the disturbing reality of tongue-tussling with a total stranger

It's rare for a video to light up social media because of its beauty – usually the decisive factor tends to either be a quantifiably large amount of kittens or footage of Boris Johnson getting pantsed by a toddler and falling into a big cake – but that's what happened yesterday. Film-maker Tatia Pilieva's short video First Kiss sent a tidal wave of soppiness across the internet, and it was all down to the subject matter.

In today’s episode of "what fun or weird things can the Internet make someone do in the name of art or popularity" is a video of 20 strangers kissing by Tatia Pilieva. The three-minute short/sociological experiment/art performance sounds like it could be cringeworthy, but somehow Pilieva managed to find a group of charming adventurers who make it work. We suppose it helps that they’re all fairly attractive in their own way and seem to be respectful of the other person's limits.
