Barney Elliot: My personal opinion about his Masterclass

On Thursday 7th April, we had an amazing film Master class. Barney Elliot came to talk us about his experiences throughout life. He introduced himself in a very relaxed way and told us to make lots questions so that he could be able to understand us more and be sure we understood all of what he was talking.

He told us that the inspirations he got when making his two most famous short films: “True colours” and “The last resource”. When making the short film “True colours”, he told us the he was inspired when going to a supermarket. After looking to the film, we were able to recognise his relationship with real life and understood how anyone can be inspired in different real life situations.

I personally think that both films were really got created. I found them very interesting and like the camera angles, which make them have an eye view more motivating and attracting. Characters were very attention-grabbing and let us the audience to want more about the story and what it will happen.

Finally, he told us about movie-making and their future plans: he is actually looking for fundraising to be able to have his first very important movie. He make us believe and understand that it was possible to life from making movie and we should make in life what we are going to be happy and pleased because that is what we are going to make throughout all of our lives.
