Old Mill

The Old Mill video is good for several reasons. The way that the movie begins and ends has is the same. This is good because at the beginning there is an establishing shot which helps the viewers see what the movie is about. Then at the end it is the same shot since the storm hit it shows the cobweb ripped. This give the viewers a sense of what happened and how violent the storm was.

Also, the detail in the animals make it a good movie. The shading on the different animals gives the views a sense that they are alive and really interacting with each other. Along with the shading the interaction between the frogs is good. The interaction when they are croaking is good. The reason is when they croaking the lily pad moves which moves the water and makes a ripple. This is the small things that makes this a good movie. The croaking is not the only thing that is good. When they learn other frogs are near they smile and begin again. This is a good way to keep everything going.

The storm is also a good place where the detail is good. The reason is the the music that is playing picks up and when the storm is at its peak so is the music. The music gives the feel that a storm is happening. Another part of the storm that is good is the lightening. This is good because when the light flickers it gives the appeal that lightening happens. The flicker happens outside and also inside the mill which is good. Since there are holes in the mill light should be coming in.

Old Mill is a good short movie that gives a lot of detail with the simplest desgin.
