a little thought...

[New Works Unit 15] afterthoughts
. The Pentecostal Ministry of Fire _ not really understand but nice cinematography
. The Fixer _ (from the book) strong kind of style
. The Transcendent City _ excellent, dreamy kind of cinematography, remind me of Avatar
. Think Tank _ (from the book) like the idea but can't feel that in the film
. A Failed Entertainment _ a bit too much sayings, like the last bit of the film very much :P
. The Museum of Consumer Electronics _ many hand-drawings and i think i sort of know how this film is made
. The Exhibit and The Cage _ some interesting ideas within...but the whole film is a bit too heavy
. Augmented (Hyper)Reality _ interesting idea and easily understood from the film
. Royal Reformation _ "Inception"! :P visual ice-cream... (how could i make this?)
. The Reality Obscurer _ the notion is understood through the texts
. Symbols of the Resistance _ not quite easily understood but some of the graphics are kind of nice
. the one from Daniel _ not quite sure as there is no title nor texts, just appreciate the correspondence between the beginning and the end
. Hoarding in Suburbia _ like the changing-focus shots and the way it's a physical model
. Wastefield London _ some interesting space and i kind of recognize some techniques

still i can't imagine i can make a film for myself at the end of the year....
