Four Hour Film Challenge - Unusual Pespectives


As a class we watched the sequence twice, to which (thankfully) everyone found funny. As a general, we primarily got praise on the variety of shots and pacing used which enabled us to create a character out of an inanimate object without the use of mass props; Though we were asked if there was opportunity to use more props or different backdrops. However, in my opinion, I think using little to no official props makes the video as a whole funnier because it looks more like a parody that making a backdrop which could have distracted attention from the eggs.
In terms of editing, the only critic we got given was that more titles could have been used to make it more punny and look more like a movie trailer than just a sequence of shots. Similarly, the sequence was very short so it left me personally more to be desired; I wish we had filmed more to be able to create a longer trailer and possibly even more references to the movie our inspiration came from. Although one of our critics was that we could have been more original and created a narrative from scratch rather base it on a preexisting trailer dialogue; but because it was intended to be a parody I don't fully think this comment was relevant.
