RESEARCHING SHORT FILMS

Today in class we look at two short films, High Maintenance and Next Door.

High Maintenance was a short film by Phillip Van, it is based in the near-future, where a women who has a robotic husband who fails to meet her standards. She then shuts him done and exchanges him for a newer model. Upon the new models arrival she becomes disappointed finding the same problems as the first. The new model then proceeds to shut her down, exposing how she is also a robot, he then watches TV and smokes leaving her at the table.

Next Door by Drew Mylrea was about a man who fell in love with his neighbour, he then helped her with her plans of making TNT. Upon her death we find out she was in fact a terrorist.

Both these movies work well due the plot twist which most short films feature, this keeps the audience engaged.
