The sound effects and the cinematography of the entire video was very well-done. The sound effects added confusion and gave an insight into what was going on in the head of the girl and the camera shots tried to show herself alone and away from everybody else. I liked how they used the Allegory of the Cave (even though they didn't describe it as Plato had intended) as I have always had a fascination with The Republic.
What were some of your major "take away" or observations regarding the film?
You don't need to change because society doesn't like you. In other words, don't let everyone else put a label; you are the only one who should matter to yourself. I believe the video was pushing you to be your real self and not the one society wants to see
What kinds of themes from the film do you think were applicable to life today?
Be yourself.
Love yourself.
You're not ugly, society is.
Love everyone, don't care if they don't love you back.
And uhh....
# YOLO XD
This world's kinda get messed up. You get lead into Playgroup like "come on. come on. keep working. a reward will come. people will love you. the craving you need will be satisfied." And then you go to Kindergarten and then Gr. 1, and then Middle school, then High school, then it keeps going like "come on. the reward is just around the corner. you will be loved. No. No. Don't take off your mask. Your real face is ugly. Let's keep going. So you go to college. Then you get your first job. Then you slowly move up the ranks being lead up the same way you were in Pre-K and then you finally get to the position you've somehow supposedly wanted since you were 2 has come.
But you feel cheated.
Cuz we always have this craving that we're not good enough. We won't make it. We crave to be greater. And the world says we will never be happy until we reach it. And we keep going. And so we will never be good enough, even after we reach the top.
What masks do I wear?
Nice guy- I pretend like I care about anyone but myself. Cuz I don't. No one does.
I try to be very nice to other people, even people I don't really like, because I crave the happiness someone finds in making someone else happy. I'm addicted.
Brotherhood- I hang out with some guys and we used to have a clique and other people don't like it.
A mask which would have a deep dark face with a confident look. Possible blue color cuz thats the special color for jocks
Smart Big-words Guy- I use big words to sound smarter than I really am because I crave people's admiration of myself.
A mask with letters written all over it and has a bigger mouth ripped open
I just crave other people to admire me. So sometimes I'm something I'm not.
I really didn't like the video because it looks at the world in such a shallow perspective.
