Textual Analysis - Code 8

In this post I have produced a YouTube video in which I go into deep analysis of the short film "Code 8". I have done this because I felt that I needed to gain a better understanding of modern short films and that I needed knowledge in how a good short film is structured.

After completing this textual analysis and producing this video, I feel that I have gain a tremendous amount of knowledge and understanding of short films such as how they are structured and what makes a good short film. I am now aware that keeping the number of characters to a minimum is essential in a short film because, due to the short duration of the film, we cannot learn a lot about all of the characters which can be extremely frustrating. Also I have learned that mes en scene is crucial because the clothing that our characters wear and the location that they are in can tell us a lot about our character without taking the time to properly introduce us to our characters.
