Short Film Research - Spin

This film has been cleverly constructed together with the subject of a DJ who is in the city to cure and rebuild everything in terms of saving people’s lives. The producer’s intentions for this film were to show you and make you aware that every little thing in life appertains with everything else. This film has been distributed to many film festivals with its implied audience being the film industry as this film is in the form of a showcase. With the film being shown at the different festivals, the people involved hope to get positive feedback about their work in terms of acting, camera work etc. The people involved with the film will then hope that it opens the door for new opportunities for them to progress in something more of a higher standard. The setting for this film is in the city which is needed in order for the film to work. This is where the different events happen in for the DJ to fix. This film would not exactly work if it was set in the countryside as there would not be much activity. Whereas the city has a lot more people in where there different actions affect other people and especially their lives in this film.
The film has a very high energy beat soundtrack which goes with the theme of the film as DJ decks are involved. The soundtrack throughout the film changes to different tempo’s to comply with the narrative of the film. Also the soundtrack corresponds with the speed of what things happen on screen. When the DJ is working hard at correcting everything the speed and volume increases to show this. The only main character in the film is the DJ which you see throughout the film, he controls everybody’s actions in the film to save their lives. The DJ towards the end does become quite impatient with having to correct everything but does keep doing it. I expect the film to have a certification of a 12 because of the moderate violence involved in the film. I do not think it would be suitable for anybody under the age of twelve to watch this film.
