5 Second Film

Posted by

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.
