Short Film Research: (Friday Tigers/ Drama )

 




    The short film is approximately 17 minutes long, and the plot is quite difficult to decipher. The plot of the film is not very apparent or straightforward to the audience. It doesn't begin with any indication of what the plot might be. The scenes just move from day to day, demonstrating the various events that occur on each day. The movie never goes into great detail about why something happens or what the issue is.

     It simply depicts the aftermath or consequences of the troubles that have arisen in the woman's life. However, because it is a drama, we were anticipating some sort of confrontation in the short film. There are a lot of sounds in this short clip. At the start of the movie, there is some background music playing. The background soundtrack resembles someone singing while playing an instrument.

    The train on the rails makes a noticeable but not excessive amount of noise. Then, little sounds were strengthened, such as typing to text and other minor sounds. The primary characters' outfits are dressed to meet the situation in the scenario, which can be casual attire or different costumes. The performers wear a shirt or blouse with jean slacks and are dressed casually. Realistic lighting is a typical type of light editing.

     The hues are vibrant, capturing the grandeur of nature. The lighting then dims as the day progresses and the sun sets later, indicating the passage of time. A drawing format is used to alter some scenery. Those scenes aren't realistic; they depict a piece of paper and a sketch playing out the scene.Then there's the part where the woman is looking for her father's child and says, "You can't keep leaving us like this," which indirectly tells the plot. 

    Because she is now screaming out her words, which is a vital aspect of the drama genre, the drama begins here. Later, she is discovered kissing another man, and Mike (the father's child) appears out of nowhere and begins battling the other man. Currently, there is a lot of yelling, screaming, and fighting going on. Because it features dramatic activities, it contributes to the drama genre elements. The camera zooms in on this to draw the audience's attention to the drama unfolding in that scene.

Short Film Research: ( Migrants/ Drama)

       This short film was 8 minutes long and the plot was pretty easy to figure out basically there were polar bears being pushed out of their home lands due to global warming and exiled from brown bear territory being left to fend for themselves on the ocean. In the beginning of the short there was a climax point where the baby polar bear fell of the ice and into the water from the ice breaking and the mother jumps after the baby. This was a great way to start the film it immediately introduce the drama factor that a film should have lots of heart racing and anticipating moments. There was a conflict with the polar bears and the brown bears over food and the was another great way to help deliver a message. Although it is animated the film didn't use and real dialogue just animal noises such as grunts and snorts and well as instrumental music in the background.     It reminds me of how lonely many of us are. It can be interpreted as a political manifesto, ...
