This is yet again a film directed by Oliver Hollingdale; I have chosen to write about this because I really like the opening from 18 seconds to 1 minute, this beach scene is what I generally wanted in my film, as the beach is an iconic thing for Hastings, and it gives a sense of setting whilst also looking quite artistic with the reflections in the water; I think that this almost reversal of the waves crashing would work well in my film as I'm showing a flashback to the night before so then this would symbolise going back in time whilst allowing me to give a sense of setting and natural sounds. I don't really like the rest of the short film as it is all a bit too si-fi for me, and that is not my personal preference, I do however think that the editing for this film is so well done and all the light shining through actually looks rather natural as if it should and is actually there not just edited in.
 From this short film, I am going to steal the idea of the beach and the waves crashing as I think that it looks rather artistic and gives a feel of art involved also.
