Virgin media have just run a short film competition. I really liked the winner - black hole and we've watched and discussed it in class. What about the shortlist? Since we are not doing animation I have spent more time looking at the live action shorts.
Since I am currently running a module called 'planning a film' with the aim of writing and preparing to film a short (5 - 8 minutes long). Its interesting to look at the winner - Black Hole and the runners up.
Black hole Competition winner as chosen by the judges
5 bricks high (Short listed)
Butterface (Short listed)
The calling (Short listed)
Elevator music (Short listed)
The hobbyist (winner of the the People's choice) (Short listed)
What do you think of these? Can we draw any conclusions from the short list?
Interestingly none were highly rated by the visitors to the Virgin Media website. Only Black hole was listed on the most viewed selection!
Lastly Virgin Media have now up some details about the filming and the filmmakers on the website. It make interesting reading too.
