What would you do?
I`m going to comment about the second video:
ResponderEliminarwell i think the video is very good, because he prefer to stay in the camera, because he found the picture of his wife, he was very sad because she was dead, but he wanted to stay with her in the camare and i think that is very good, because we can see that he was in real love with his wife, well this thing is not real because we all know that nobody can stay in a camera, but in the video we see that his dad was very sad, but he undertands that his son was in love.

ResponderEliminarIn my view the short film I liked was "Leave me" because it has a beautiful message. Transmitting the deep love he felt by the person who loved and lost in disgrace.
ResponderEliminarWith few words one can reflect on assumptions that may happen in our lives, to me the message is very deep.
The most significant thing to me was in the scene where the parent with tremendous courage wing access request of his son and left the place he wanted.
And the reaction of the man to see his woman alive, was the passage of melancholy to happiness, which to me represents the union after life.

My comment is about Tick-tock short. The film shows us the actions of a guy in back, at first he is seen apologizing to his girlfriend, then behind from his actions is seen taking out his anger on his teacher, then he is seen in a phone conversation with his mother, apologizing for all he had done in his life, leaving his entire family greetings. Then he understood the reason forthese actions. By mistake, instead of taking an aspirin, take a morphine pill that will kill himin 5 minutes.
ResponderEliminarThis video suggest what would you do if you only had 5 minutes to live, but other than that, it reflects that you have to be good all the time with people you love, because at any momentcan you can lose your life, without telling them how much you loved them.

ResponderEliminarI'm going to talk about the short film "most"
What would you do? Well I think one would say several things about what to do as I said I would save my son, to be in their shoes would be more complex , As I know myself I think ,I would stay in shock , I could not do.anything
the thing that most impressed to me about the man though he was his son decided to save people from the train, not knowing what kind of people had on it.
Another scene that caught my attention was the change that had the young drug addict who was on the train to see the gentleman, crying wildly for the death of his son, and as time passes and sees on the street with his son, he gets very happy to know that could help her and see her happy with her son.
At the end of the day the action that the gentleman was beneficial for people,unfortunately had to sacrifice his beloved son.
I´m going to talk about the short film “An creatur”.
ResponderEliminarI think the young boy acted like that because he felt that everyone treated him like a stranger, but he was not, he was just different, so it doesn´t mean he was inferior to others.
At first I think that by making this short film the director wanted to show the mindset of someone who is different and how it feels when you are treated differently, being that has the same capabilities as the rest, for example, the brother always thought he needed help, but the boy was angry because he felt that the brother did it out of pity or because the mother said since childhood to look after him, but it was not. Then over time the young man began to having anger or envy his brother, and I think that's why he threw into the sea, or perhaps he was just immature for wanting to hand over the car, then the young man began to disregard his brother , and that was just wrong, because he always cared, but perhaps it was because when he treated him as strange not like to protect him all the time, but then at the last moment when we all saw that he was drowning to kill his he just wanted to stop and rest in peace suffer, but because of what he did caused his brother to relive what had happened years ago and he regained his memory and his body began to function well.
Why this happened I do not know, but I can deduce that it was perhaps because he did an act of love for his brother, because if he died would somehow be able to rest and his mother just because life was not wearing worthy of having it, because you could not even stand on its own and was always going to have to be linked to the ridicule of their peers and their parents take care of it.
Another meaning of this film may want to show how a child feels when the father had not taken into account, because if you look at the video all the time the father's elder brother was pending and he was put aside, then perhaps he wanted hurt his brother to see if the father made him more intent, and that now he was going to be healthy and his brother differently.
Im going to talk about “An Creatur” I really liked the shortfilm , the paradox seemed to me to be very interesting of being born, dying and being reborn, since it is the case of the big brother, the similarity of his accident in the sea and the intention of his minor brother of drowning it. And this one re-lives without complications. It left me too much to think about on not having understood very well what the shortfilm wants to say. Besides the coincidences that owe to the number sixteen because it is born to the sixteen and it can only like that up to really fulfilling the sixteen. On having had the sixteen he drowns his brother, which I was really surprised because I did not deal if it did it by the way knowing what would happen, or if really it was a surprise for through the one that his brother was re-living totally healthily.

this short film is very interesting and also it is a pretty way of thinking what is your son and family, to know how hard this would be. It helps yourself notice from what others can manage to suffer for the loss of a loved one but with the conscience that was leaving many happy persons, though it costs the own happiness.
It makes you think about the religious thing that it concerns to Jesus' death where it let his son die for our, the sinners the same thing can be seen in the short film since the father sacrifices his son for the rest of persons who were in the train. The video is very emotive, where you can find feelings.
in my case, it would be a difficult situation and of desperation, but I believe that for seeing the happiness of others I would let my son diesand to save all. Though also I am selfish and believe that this might change in the same situation. It is very difficult to see to die to a son and more if this depends on you.
I'm going to talk about the short film Colourbleed.
ResponderEliminarI found it very nice, what I understood was that the girl lived in a world full of bitter gray, black and white and when she went to arrange some paperwork and saw a hummingbird she identify herself with the bird because it was like her, and when the lady hit her hand... she thought she was going to dig his world full of magic and colors Because of the lady had lived.
I found In the short film there was some unfair discrimination against different people and it was noted that much in the way everyone looked weird at her clothes and society always wants to bring you to boring things to most negative possible and that nothing can be a world full of joy love and friendship without discrimination through this video you can realize about the discrimination that we are living in and how are people without knowing the damage that can cause
I'm going to talk about the short film "most"
ResponderEliminarI got a lot of this film by the crudity of this, because he has to kill his own son to save the lives of many people who were on the train.but in the end all, it caught my attention a woman drug addict who was on the train changes her lifestyle to see the sad face of the person who loses his son in which the subject becomes very happy after seeing her with his son walking down the street. for me this scene makes me feel very comfortable, because I said that despite all the sacrifice you have to do (even lose your child) can have good consequences and that many people are in a dilemma much more complicated than yours.
To begin with I will discuss the short film "Most":
ResponderEliminarI found this short film that talks about the importance of spending time with friends, family and people close to one to enjoy every day, every moment, every second with their loved ones, and that at any moment something could happen between them also plotted on a difficult decision in the case of film, making the boy's father, that the destiny puts in front complicated situation: save the life of his beloved son or full train passengers, the two decision means sacrificing human lives, there comes to me a moral from this, it would be "the daily lives and enjoy every second with your loved ones" and also "in a difficult situation you have what is best for others" this is as far as this film emphasize by highlighting the importance and give him the tape.
I think it was a very nice short film, a very sad end, but with a great message that invites us to reflect on our own lives, even questioning some aspects.

In my opinion, the film is well done, because it is concise, also, circulates the emotions of the characters, for example at a time when the main character has a camera in his hand that shows the sadness in his face, without desires to live.
ResponderEliminarI also could notice the sorrow that hetransmitted with his face and emaciated without love of life.. I was pleased the short, since, shows the romantic love and eternal couple, because the character preferring to remain as in a dream in something that is not real, fantastic, but when He is with… his beloved. It also shows the type of brotherly love that owns with his father, since this last accessed to the request for his son to leave him on the camera and his father would be sorely missed much, and everything to make his son will be forever happy and puts a picture on the wall that contains the last photo of his son, in which he writes in his hand "Leave me”
I`m going to talk about leave me ...
ResponderEliminarI found a beautiful lifelong learning that love is so strong for some things like the character that died, his Husband preferred to enter the camera to find the photo in which he found his wife and stay with her for all of life.
above all preferred to stay with her and not with others around but for me that's not accepting the reality, not accepting that his wife already was so well.The silly but cute at the same time that their feelings are real and genuine.
In part I liked that I made do with more value and appreciate the people around me every day that you know at what point or moment can go from this world or my life.

About ColourBleed
ResponderEliminarI don’t really know what can I commet about this shortfilm, i just can say that I really love the art, the music and the story with that it was developed, the way I want it to stop seeing it when the girl take her out her nails and how after a few seconds i was falling by the idea of his colour blood and that I just want that the shortfilm never ended. A simple and clean history, without big exaggerations and beautiful results.
I investigated the director Peter Szewczyk and turns out that this was one of his first works as a director, he often do the special effects of a lot of movies like Harry Potter, Schreck and even Avatar that explains his talent with the special effects in the shortfilm, I can’t wait to see his new projects.
Most
ResponderEliminarAs an independent opinion, I think it was a very good short, clearly expressed and the child loved the father as the father loved his son's son he was a very happy child who wanted to just enjoy life and his father, however only the father worked for his son, happy knowing that his son was very happy, your link was very close family, and I felt sorry for the poor child died, it was too cruel as he died, and his father that tube to choose among hundreds of people or their son, despite the difficult decision of all, I had chosen as his own opinion and my son is my blood and I love who loves the person that I want to see grow and a whole adult to be happy in your life

ResponderEliminarI will talk about the short film "Most", which caught my attention because it shows a life of a parent and a child in their daily lives, with a question to the father of the child to see if he could accompany the parent to work, this would make a hard day.
what strikes me is that this video game was in the child's life and many people, which makes you think what you would do in that situation.
In that case I would save my son because he would do everything for the videoand the father had a difficult desicion which could not repent and was quite difficult.
he had to decide between his child's life or the lives of many people, which could not risk lives against one that was his son.
short overall this is more to think about what you would do in the difficult times both exceed costs.

ResponderEliminarI am going to talk about the shortfilm "the man who never cried".It seems to me very funny , I felt a bit identified with the man, because in certain areas I could not demonstrate my emotions
ResponderEliminarThe fact which the man was born sleeping without crying it was a fact that I was astonished .Because all the babies are born shouting and screaming but this one not this one was special and during all his life he never did it like for example when his girlfriend cheated him
and it did not anything.That gave me a mixture of feelings was when his son died and his wife was crying and he was surprised about the situation.The video is very graceful, nevertheless, the video gave me to understand that there is no big emotion that to see the birth of a son and that the greatest thing that a man can feel.
The man who never Cried
ResponderEliminarThe film "The Man Who Cried never" is film that delivers a very deep and very beautiful message of hope and optimism and solidarity.
I was often quite sorry to see the clown that could not mourn but at the same time I liked the way he could accept this and, assimilate and above all to cheer up others, not only to children but to all types of people.
The saddest moment in the film was when he couldn’t cry in the father funeral, but the song of his friend was a nice song, and very sensitive. I think the end of the movie is very emotional because he could cry in the moment when his wife was having a baby, and finally, he and his baby, could cry with the mother. This learns to we must show our feelings to other people every time.
The real message that he gave was that the only good cause to cry is happiness.

In my opinion this video has very much contained. In addition I believe that the decision of the father is extremely difficult on having confronted such a complex situation; nobody can walk in someone else’s shoes specially in that situation.The responsibility that the father will have to load for having to decide between his son and to avoid the death of a hundred of people will be very big I believe that it is a very difficult desicion and represents many persons who probably have not taken a decision between the life and the death, but if they have faced difficult situations.
I believe that this short film really leaves an education and helps us in seeing it difficult that aveces are the desiciones, probably these are not of life or death but if of great importance.

ResponderEliminarI think the video (Most) is very very complex, the question about saving his own son or hundred of people is not easy at all. Maybe some of us wouldnt make that decision,
ResponderEliminarwhat do I have to do? is it a good question in this situation. Probably many people
would save the child cause we usually think of ourselves and the rest of people are not important in our lives. What about me?
It's is hard to say, but I have to be sencere I would save my son and I don't know how God would understand it.
The short film that I liked best was "Tick Tock" that shows what a man does in his life unless happen to lose it.
ResponderEliminarAt the beginning of the video the man goes back in time and showing what he did a few minutes ago. Later we see him running desperately to see his beloved, whom he never really said he loves her. to spend time fixing things that could have been done long ago as the conflict of their parents. When they see the man taking the pills was the most shocking video, showing the truth of the man who never does things before and when he is at a critical moment as the man who was going to die soon, it more a message that says, many do not realize what they have until they losing it
