Check out Austrian director Virgil Widrich’s 2001 Copy Shop. One man multiplies and multiplies and multiplies. Students I showed this to last semester did some interesting work putting themselves in the frame more than once. There are some youtube tutorials on “cloning” that provide examples and how-tos.
