This assignment was to “Make a supershort, 5-second film; basically enough time for one gag, bit, or joke. See examples (ALERT: Not G-rated, generally) athttp://5secondfilms.com/. Or alternatively, try your hand at creating a 5 second version of a major movie.” This was a lot of fun, and not as difficult as some of the other assignments. I watched the example, and thought that humor would be a good way to go. I am home alone right now, SO I didn’t have access to actors, so Photo Booth would have to suffice. I wish I could have had 10 seconds, but at the same time the 5 second mark makes it short and sweet. Please watch the video before reading below, or else it will be spoiled for you.
Inspiration: having terrible allergies, and just wanting something good coming out of my nose for once, like maybe diamonds. I initially tried to photoshop a fat cat in the tissue, but it would not show up! What can you do? Well, you can Google it. I found the fiamond (aka fake diamond.. some stud from some piece of jewelry, probably) and I was happy with that. Maybe one day the fat cat can come out of my noise, but until then, this is what you get.
Assignment worth 3 Stars.
EDIT – This is what I intended to have in my hand, but I couldn’t figure out how to put it in there.
