short film

this is not my favorite online short, just to preface. this is more of a music video but i still find compelling images in it and i like the setup of not trying to hide itself. the short knows what it is. so this piece is kind of making fun of itself in a way. i say this because of the background and the attire of the people. it places itself on a stage with a spotlight, and alternates between close ups of the faces and medium shots of the group dancing. it follows a pattern, alternating between people and between faces and groups. it has a high key lighting setup, and uses all thirds of the frame.
