Short Film Analysis - One Minute Time Machine
Duration - 5:40
Camerawork
Some very nice shots in particular the use of the wider two shot which while might not be possible in the piece I am planning was useful for understanding how two people can express their emotions through proxemics when sitting on the same seat
The use of montage towards the end of the piece is very effective and creates a highly comedic crescendo to the piece as a whole. While is isn't particularly relevant to my piece as I don't intend to use montage the cutting between various scenes for comedic effect is something that I would like to explore further as I like the idea of contrasting the serious conversation between the two main characters and the silliness of the rest of the party
Sound
The sound design is simple but effective with the sound used for the time machine providing an effective sound bridge between scenes.
The soundtrack adds a need degree of levity to the piece which could become quite depressing towards the in the quick pace and light hearted tone that the soundtrack establishes was not maintained.
Narrative.
Simple repeating narrative due to the gimmick of the piece which is the time machine. This works very well for comedy and helps to effectively develop character throughout the piece as we learn more about both the people in the piece
