This short film entitled Bunker from Paul Doucet is great for many reasons. One being that it’s French which means I’m not able to understand any of the speech but because of the mood created by the videography and other thematic elements I’m pretty positive I was able to discern what happens and am certainly able to distinguish the emotions I’m supposed to be feeling at various times. However, I would have posted this film if for nothing else but for the first two minutes. From a brilliant establishing shot of the pull back away from the phonograph to the isolation shot of the character sitting lying on the couch – it was excellent. Some solid sound mixing too!
Anyway, I’m really enjoying this two videos a day thing. I think on Friday’s though, I’m just going to post one and only put videos longer than 6 minutes up so that there can be a place for those. It would be bad news to put you guys through super long videos during the week so I’ll give you the weekend (every weekend) to check out Friday posts. I hope you’re enjoying this as much as I am – feel free to email me (ted@tedvid.com) stuff you’ve seen and would like to share and let people know about the blog!
