Short film research: 3D Animated Sci-Fi Short Film | AUTONOMOUS

 This blog is going to cover the sci-fi short titled autonomous. The title said it was a sci-fi but personally I think you could narrow it down even more to sci-fi action. I say this because the film pandered a lot more to the action genre then to any other genre. It also seemed to go along well with the themes and conventions of an action film. which that being said lets delve into conventions starting with sound. With this film just like any other action film contain 3 main sound types diegetic, non-diegetic, and dialogue. Next on the list is common mis en scene. Ill start of with costumes which tend to very but in this film case they were in biker outfits and skin tight uniforms. Now when discussing lighting actions tend to have a mixture of high key and lowkey lighting. Now Onto acting where one can see that acting in an action film requires you to have much more grit aggressiveness and urgency in your character as one could see from any action film including this one. Now make up for action films doesn't really  have much substance since it can be very diverse. If I had to give my best position/view though, I would say that it is suppose to give a more natural and minimalistic look to the actors making everything look genuine and real. But I Guess this portion wouldn't matter since we never seen any of the characters faces. Now props in this film included the fast vehicles weaponry of sorts, Not to mention objects(could also be a vehicle)that can explode. Now as for the settings of the action genre it can be pretty diverse. In this case it seemed to be a timeline far forward in the future. Now when discussing editing techniques in such 2 main techniques  are mainly used in action. They include regular standard cutting and jump cutting(which are both used in this film). Examples of other films in this genre include  Spider-Man 1, 2 as well as 3, big hero 6, and batman vs superman. Elements I
like pertaining to the film and said genre is its fast pace and high action, Gets me as a person in the audience "pumped up". The down side of the film and it said genre personally is that their is 0 to no plot and where left with a cool fight some slight slight inferences about the plot and a plethora of questions. With that being said this concludes my blog on the short film Autonomous.
