The first positive aspect of this film would be how there are words flashed up in the beginning; it cuts from the film to a blank screen with a word on it each time. This is good for a short film as you could use it to give the audience extra information or help them understand. This is something i would consider adding to my short film as i think it is a bit different and can cut the film up a bit so there isnt just a constant film running.
The audience hears the radio as they see the establishing shot. The film is centered around the radio so the audience can realise straight away this, as this is the first thing heard/seen.
There is no speech in the film. They have made the radio a sort of narrator so there is no need for anyone to speak in order to understand whats happening. This is different and interesting and keeps the audience hooked.
A negative point i have about the film is based on the shots. I think there isnt enough different shots and they use close up shots too much. In one part there is a close up shot that flicks between two of the actors, this carries on for a while which gets boring. This has made me realise that it is vital to vary my shots as much as i can to ensure i give a range.
The ending was especially good, they made sure the radio was the main aspect of the film at the beginning and the end.
Overall, the film was a a bit different and unique and included some things which i would consider using in my own film.
