This short film is one of my favorites on the website,
this is due to it being my style of imagery and quite ‘fresh’. I like how they
have included the use of florals and shapes yet in an unexpected ways such as
eyes and hands. When the flowers appear in an animated style it has really
inspired me to do something similar, although I would make the film look much
more vintage in terms of colour’s and themes. I like the whole set up of this
short film and how although there is constant movement there is not too much to
take in at once. They greyscale images contrasting the pop of colour is
something I would like to incorporate within my own short film.
I like
the whole loose and whimsical approach to this short film, and the repetition
of the same image. It is quite hard to tell if the image if just a still
photograph or a video until a small amount of wind moves some of the models
hair, I like how delicate yet bold this effect is. For inspiration I like the
split screen and the effect it shows, the smaller details can be shown up close
without effecting the larger image.
For this
short film the vintage/retro effects really stood out to me, I like how the
slightest amount of light is captured and the use of reflections especially in
the balloons. The slow motion movement is another thing that stands out to me
and how the blurred visuals look almost like smoke, I think the slow movement
really capture the overall theme of the film and how it almost looks like it’s
from a different era.

What I like in this film is the use of vintage/ almost muted
colours. I like how vintage and retro it looks just by the colour/ screen
selection. I want to stick to a vintage look for my Made In Britain film so
this really inspires my colour selection. I think filters work really well and show how
a recent recording can look old and vintage. I also particularly like the stop
motion scenes especially of walking legs, I think I could achieve something
similar of a man walking away and towards the camera.
Boned:
To begin I like how the images are blurred and slowly focus,
allowing you to just about make out what the shape/ object is and allowing the
audience to try and decide for themselves before focusing. Once again I liked
the vintage filter and almost bland colour base of the short fashion film.
