The four minute-long introduction sketch for the 26th Annual Hollywood Reporter Key Art Awards (1997), which happens to be an epic spoof of every In a World-type trailer out there and stars all the voice actors who made them (back then), including Don LaFontaine himself.
Copies of the video can be found all over the net, Google it.
