In the first session we Filled in a spider diagram for what we could do in our short film that we will be doing,
Short Film
- Multi-strand and Single strand Narrative ,
- No more then 3 actors
- 1-2 mins long
- Hybrid of genres (Multiple genres)
- Linear (Beginning, middle, end )
- Non Linear (Flashbacks)
- No formal dialogue, show don't tell, Monologue/voice overs
- Open ending (It could go on)
- Closed ending
- realist (could happen in real life)
- Anti-realist (couldn't happen in reality)
We also checked out these websites for short films
- BBC.filmnetwork
- Vimeo
we watched a film called Joyride which can be found on cinema 16, this was a horror. this short film was
- Linear because it a beginning middle and end.
- It was a Realist film because it could happen.
- Single strand Narrative because it was coming from the electrical mans view.
- And it had a closed ending because The guy died.
Signs by Patrick Hughes
- Linear
- Anti-realist
