Another Film with Stills

During the online discussion, someone asked a really good questions. Would you like to see another film made the same way - with stills instead of moving images - if it was about another topic.

Well, here one is. A former student of mine made it a few years ago when he went to film school at NYU.

  1. i didnt like this compared to the other one in class because for this one it it seems as if the people are posing for the pictures which i think they are and i think it looks better when they dont look like they are posing for pictures

  2. I agree with what Richie said. In class, the film looked like action shots. Where as in this one, the pictures look as if they're taken from Google. I think you can make a really cool movie with still photos. Personally I don't like stills just because I want to be able to see what's going on, such as actions and emotions during a film.

  3. I understand where Richie and Sandra are coming from when they say they enjoyed the one we saw in class over this one. The difference i saw from La Jetee to Hiding in Plain Sights was La Jetee had sci-fi theme to it and Hiding in PLain Sight was more geared toward comedy. It's hard to compare those to one another. I give the student credit for turn such a bland topic "Waldo" into a funny E! inside story of his life.
