9 film review

Image
 For the short film it surprised me in a very big way. I very honestly did not think that it would be that good of a film being so short. I thought it would look goofy but it was great. It is one of the best things I have watched in such a small amount of time. If I would rate 1 through 10, I would probably give it a 9. Like I said the plot is great so essentially it is about 9 the Main character.The build up is that first he has something flash, giving him a warning and then he has a flashback which has an amazing special effect to it .Boom he is with 5 they both get alerts; and then they see this big monster which is like dog.5 then tells 9 to go hide so he proceeds to and attempts to fight him off all by himself dies and then the monster takes his soul away.

Final genre decision

Image
 It's time to make the final decision. After researching, my group has decided to make our film fit into the Drama genre. This genre allows us to exaggerate the stages of heartbreak which is common for many people. A lot of people share similar experiences and feelings during a breakup and can relate on some level. This genre allows us to portray realistic feelings and emotions through camera angles, lighting, sound, props, and more. Conflict is also very common in this genre. A heartbreak consists of conflict, and sometimes no resolution. My group can come up with ideas and put our personal twist to the film. Overall it allows us to portray a real life scenario and overstress the emotional impact of the situation. The other genres were certainly possibilities but this genre was most suitable. We didn't have to tweak the pitch and we were all able to see the endless possibilities that this genre presented to us. Choosing this genre allowed me expand my ideas about what the plot...
