Some Classmate Critiques!
Hello! So, post number 3 has me critiquing my buddies. Fun! I’m a mess and a half, but here we go, I guess.
1: Tu’s Pompompurin Despair!
First of all, Tuyetnhi’s use of a plush for this project made me feel a bit better about my silly figure and collectible usage. This gave off a nostalgic vibe; it kind of reminds me of those adorable doll role-play videos that many would make as kids! The second shot was haunting, absolutely haunting. The slow dolly shot, changing it from a closeup to a pompom grin in contrast to the wide shot with the haunting background, gives a loss of sense of self. How terrifying! This, in addition to the third shot of pompurin seemingly facing to the ground in a top-down shot, really just sends a shiver down my spine.
2: Indirahs Serene Garden!
I love the focus on the scenery. Seriously, oh my goodness, the scenery really is amazing. I really love how, even with a variety of shots, everything feels so calm and at peace. The camerawork is doing great! My favorite shot would probably be the pov. Despite pov shots usually being used in action, the serenity of it all just turned out really great. I love the environment and all, and overall, it's just really great.
Teddy, I loved your little collection of whimsical wonders, I adored the perspective shots for your shoes, the slow low angle shot stitches together a peaceful walk, the steps purposeful and slow which angles the perfect mood for the characters. Not to mention also, the high angle mid shot of your figurine was endearing as well, the contrast of their stature compared to the vast blank background makes it seem as they were truly dumbfounded or scared of something. I wish perhaps the figure could be put on a stand so that the turning could be more smoother but everything else is alright, nice!
