2. At the beginning of the short film there is a close
up of a female
and it looks like she’s in the middle of
confrontation with someone.
Even though there is confrontation going on
in the scene the background is still very
bright and colourful which indicates that it’s
still probably going to have a happy ending.
Over this scene there is a
voice over and the tone of the
voice is very soft which could
indicate love.

3. The scene has plenty of light
surrounding it. Light is portrayed
as symbol of happiness and joy.
The mise en scene of his facial expression shows that he’s just
been given bad news but his facial expression shows that he can easily get over it.
It’s kind of a ‘I’m used to it’ look.
This represents that he can move on quickly just like the short film itself. The short
film uses facial expressions instead of narrative as it’s a quicker alternative.

4. The use of this
gesture suggests
that love short films
can be quite
humorous as well as
serious.
They are light
hearted.

5. There's a new girl in this scene which shows new
opportunities come along often in love short films.
The leading male looks
hopeful again
Which represents that in short
films the moods change
From bad to good very
quickly.

6. This part of the short film shows a male running after a
girl he’s just found after he declares that is the girl of
his dreams. He has many obstacles to get through to get
to her. He manages to get through them all. This
represents that in love
Short films people will do anything to get what they
want.

7. He finally catches the girl of his dreams and then realises it’s not
going to work.

8. His mood then goes back down to how it was
at the beginning but then see’s a new a prize.

9. This time without any obstacles in his way he chases after the girl and gets her.
