Hello.
In todays review i will be reviewing 3 short film's from the Post-Apocalyptic genre.
I'm doing this because I was looking for a short film called The Last Post and couldn't find it. but there 3 films came up, which all look promocing and good,
First up.
The last whimper
Its a nice short film but honestly to me it seemed a bit boring as I reached for the guitar and even got up to check how much time was left but none the less it was still a good film.
The camera work editing and sound was all perfect and continuity was flowing brilliantly.
but to me the acting wasent the best but thats no problem, it still managed to do its thing. having a nice conversation that seemed very real.
Another thing about this video is the way that it uses locations which suit the theme very well, with credit going to location scouts. Another aspect of this is the way the charcters seem, such as the woman seeming like a victem and the sinster looking man is useing her as bait, with a twist showing that she is atualy working along side him, by palying this act and seeming like a victem luring in people who are lonely and just want to help.
Have a watch and see what you think.
Next up
Last Strands of Man
Now I havent even begin to watch this yet, but with the fact it had a text box pop up telling me there is a fight scene at a surtan point into the film seems stupid. As it has ruined the suprise but also seems like it has not got much promis by telling us about this fight scene.
After watching this film in the beginning it looks really good it dose hold your attention, but as it goes on it begins to seem worse and worse, where the fight scene was interesting it did seem like a Over the shoulder shot of one character, who seemingly didn't have much to do with it.
The camera work was nice with interesting effects added it, as well as the opining scene was perfect. Yet in some areas the editing was a bit jumpy at time's. Another aspect it has was a POV shot from the main characters' perspective which had a strange red effect on it which wasn't explained, even a hint of make up by having blood shot eyes would have been a clue to what may be wrong with him.
Have a watch and see for yourself.
And our final film.
The Last Survivors.
This film has many quality's, seeming very profesional yet very unprofessional as well. as the intro promises to be a perfect film was quite gripping and very good, where the camera work was alright but could maybe of been improved by having a better camera, as it dose seem to look like it was filmed on a digital camera. The acting and actors were amateurish and too young but with older actors it would of seemed more interesting and have a better effect. But I can understand where there coming from with this as its a group of friends making a film.
Appart from that it was a really good film, would like to see it remade with older actors and updated equipment as it has allot of potential. As the director and editor clearly have tallent.
Have a watch and enjoy see what you make of it.
Thats it for today, I will be back on saturday with more reviews.
Will
