Check out "Oblivion"

[DontExplain]

Hey guys,
I wasn't sure if it was appropriate to post this here or not, but I found nothing saying I shouldn't so I figured, ok, I will. If I'm wrong, tell me and I shall delete the thread.

Anyway; made a youtube video for a project, it's 5 minutes long and is about a blind girl. It's 'Alternative'.
If you want to watch it

Click if you so wish, and yeah, any criticism is well loved, nice or not.

Thanks

It certainly looks interesting, but it is over the top in my opinion and the voice of the girl is rather annoying, the whole thing looks like it is only filled with traumatic, overacted, pseudo philosophical stuff.

How right you are, that was basically the assignment. It was a hideous thing to write, but in the same way it was fun. We had to do an Alternative Film with hundreds of layers of meaning, so I basically did something convulted and crap, but atleast visually interesting.

Blindness -> Ignorance
Boyfriend -> Society
etc, it's all stupid. Ahah

Well if it was, then you clearly were more than succesful, did you get a grade for it? If it fits the task like that, then it better is the best mark you can get, since the whole thing shouts : "Look at me! I am art! I don´t make sense, but hey, this whole thing is as deep as it could get! Break the borders of your mind!"

Handing it in tomorrow, actually. The other projects aren't quite as pretentious (and the quote at the beginning didn't help ours), so I think I went overload. Ahah. The others are like "This person has no gender, so she doesnt fit in, watch her not fit in!"
"This man sent all these men into war who died, watch him battle them in a game of chess in his mind!" (this one actually felt very Tarintino talky though, it was good, in my opinion).
