I like to consider myself a simple person.
I know this is a complete and utter lie, but, at times, I like to trick myself into believing that statement. Simply put, I am not a simple person. There are numerous layers to me, hidden emotions, secret nooks and crannies. It's not often that I open up to people.
This all is on display in my everyday life. I like complex films. I prefer rich, deep stories. I don't get enjoyment out of mundane things. It's just not me. I can't sit still - I always need to be moving.
So, why then, do I love the short film I'm posting here today? I'm not too sure. It could be because the shots are beautiful (cinematography..yay) or that it just feels refreshing since it is so different than what I usually find myself watching.
Just remember...I enjoy complex things, like this: (and please - if you haven't seen this yet..go see it)
So than why is it that so stark in contrast - I love this little gem:

God...the things I can't wait to do with a camera when I guy it in a month or two...

And I promise...things like "Symmetry" will be made once I get a camera. "Inception" style productions are unfortunately a little way off still...
It is amazing to me all that goes into making a film! I am impressed that Christopher Nolan did it this way, in lieu of CGI!
ReplyDeleteSymmetry - AMAZING!
