"Sign Language"

The single effect I got from this short film was hope. At the beginning he mentions that he is being promoted, which indicates he will be moving up in life; this provides a sense of hope for him to have a better life. The way he describes the community and life-that its beauty is all around us-shows the audience that he has hope in life altogether because of the way he sees the world. His friends also tell him to go talk to the girl he likes by using signs. They motivate him to talk to her; this shows that he has hope and that it could work out. If I were to take out the background music in the film, it would lose that feeling and sense of community. The music provided almost a calm feeling, and it created a nice contrast from the busy and hectic hustle and bustle of the city streets. The music made the film flow well, and it gave the audience a sense of belonging in the community he was trying to explain.
