Comparing Le Jetee, the short, and 12 Monkeys, the full-length movie (2)
I found it interesting how one could even envision the concept that was shown in the video. More so, putting into practice and turning straight-up pictures into a film. I seen in the video that you don't have to have film to make a good film, that pictures will do. What matters is the way you captivate the moment. The emotions, the scenery, and all such components. Without expecting, I actually enjoyed watching the montage of photos as a film, and I was hooked within the first minute. This will help me during the short film process, because now I know how crucial it is to capture the moment of any scene to the fullest extent possible. Basic cams (angles, shots, camera movements) are a fundamental necessity in this process, which is why I will be paying much attention to the fine details. The article reiterated what was explained and shown in the video. However, it dove into depth about the importance and the how's of capturing moments in film. It also provides context of the two films it's comparing which is Jetee and The 12 Monkeys. It explains the plot of the film, and breaks down the details of it and the scenes leading up, and after it. To really prove a point to the audience that details matter, which is how it was able to convey the feeling to the audience that it did. The authors did this by explaining the lighting, the costumes, and the characters' mannerisms, and how it brought the sensation to the audience that it did.
