Damon Dark Fiction
I don't know how Brandon last term got such great quality with his videos because unless a movie is by Hollywood that I have seen you can tell that they are homemade. But eventhough Damon Dark is homemade and you can tell it is, it's still pretty good. When the opening credits came up I thought the movie was going to be better quality than it was but oh well.
I like the fact that the director made this film black and while because it is suppost to be a freaky film. The voice that the doll has adds to the freakyness of the film as well. The shoot taken from under the guys chin upwards and how shaky the camera work is, also adds to the freakyness.
I really like how the film is shot from first person but inside his head. The voice-over worked really nicely the way it was done. Then the flashback using fadding from different objects while he was talking like the rock and the candels was done well also.
What I didnt like about the piece was the use of still pictures. Like the uses of the picture of the graveyard. That in my mind was cheesy. How hard would it of been to use a real graveyard. I wish that a real doll would have been used instead of a picture of one. When music was used it was very fuzzy and hard to focus on the film when it was going.
Other than that I really liked the story and how it was presented. I just love black and white films.
