Why I like 'mobiles'

This very short film was made by St Joseph's College media students. It shows how much you can do with a fixed position camera. The emphasis is then on the actors' movement. The piece also shows what can be done in post production with such things as black and white, colour balance, contrast and fx such as ghosting. Using echo/reverb on the first section gives the piece a dream like quality that could be useful in those films where you want to use flashback for example. However the thing I like the most about mobiles is the way both classes went out and tackled the whole thing with enthusiasm and good humour.
Behind the scenes
1. In the second part of the film Kelly actually hit Chris with the umbrella in one of the takes!
2. Michael made his last appearance on a St Joseph's film! We wish him well for the future!
