Research & Planning: Operator (2015)

Operator (2015) http://www.operatorshortfilm.com/ What I liked/disliked... Probably the most obvious and prominent positive of the film is its ability to draw in, yet simultaneously rely entirely on the spectators' imaginations. This is complimented and heavily supported by the use of sound; by letting us listen to the action going on on the other side of the phone tension and suspense develops further, whilst the picture to go with it being different for everyone.  There isn't anything significant that could be improved in my opinion. I think that perhaps the film could've been differently scripted, so that instead of a fire the storyline would include an attempted murder or some sort of violence. Perhaps the person on the line could've been a child? There is a number of real life touching and tragic phone calls between operators and children that can be found on youtube. Aspects of Narrative This film ideally follows the pattern found in storyte...

Over (2015) https://www.shortoftheweek.com/2016/04/16/over/ What I liked/disliked... I really enjoyed this film. It is in the style I would really want films of my own to be made. The complete absence of dialogue added a brilliant dash of mystery to it. The occasional cuts to the victim's items built the tension really well. Most importantly and unavoidably the coolest part was the backwards storytelling; whilst not the first of its kind, this film adopts it in a way that makes it so much more interesting (whilst the true story in itself is interesting, if all the shots were placed chronologically the film would be beyond boring).  I can't determine anything I specifically dislike about the film. Aspects of Narrative  This film is the definition of 'subverting narrative style' and that's probably its main aspect. There is still a complication, in that we understand there has been a death, and are expect at the end to understand what happened. There...

Research & Planning: Tight Jeans (2008)

Tight Jeans (2008) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcPBCrUc8YI What I liked/disliked... I really like films that are set within a very short space of time, or in which nothing actually happens (sort of like all of Chekhov's plays, where everyone just sits around and talks a lot). This short film was very much like that, and a short film is typically a really good format for such plots. I liked the theme of race that was brought up, and the comic twist on it. The cinematography was also quite impressing.  I didn't find the acting to be really good. It gave an unrealistic feel, despite the very real theme and realistic conversation.  Aspects of Narrative This film isn't the type to follow a strict three part structure. The biggest complication of the plot was determining how one can wear jeans or shirts 'that tight'. I find that thats its charm though.  Genre This, despite being perhaps too short to tell, is a comedy. The three...
