I have been searching on Youtube for short films, I have no idea what kind of storyline I want to do nor do I have a clue what genre! The first short film I watched was called 'Tick Tock'; the hyperlink to the video is below.

This film starts from the end and rewinds back to the beginning, I think this is a really clever technique as it keeps the audience captivated throughout - they continue to watch because they want to know what happened in the first place to cause that ending!  I also liked how the sound rewinded made the atmosphere very bemused and hazy, which fit perfectly with the storyline. I may take the idea and start my film from the end.

This is the second film I looked at, which was an A2 short film from another school. I really liked the lighthearted storyline and the music used.

I think I am going to take one of the songs used in it which is called 'Don't Panic' by Ellie Goulding.
