Time is the Essence

Bruce Lee once said, “If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.” That’s what everybody had said to me so far and it was mostly represented in what Lang showed. Lang was showing a lot when I watched it as a part of storytelling.

You could see the mother looking at the time and then the little girl comes back from school. From that moment, I thought when Lang was trying to represent the importance of time I thought it would be like of how Phoebe ran:

 

Never mind. So anyways, I thought the editing and angles were a way to capture the audience to make them think what’s going on. Such as, the camera moving on the poster which was making it for us to try and read it. In other than having the concept and knowledge of doing the editing and angles, but knowing the facts and details about it too. By knowing it, it’ll help to make it better for the audience to understand what’s going on when creating angles of the clips for it. Such as the mother looks down the stairwell seeing the little girl isn’t there which represents a bad sign. The clock is shown again which means how late it had gotten since school was finished. The mother looks for her daughter by calling her out as the camera shows in different ways, the empty staircase and the table. We see at the end the girls balloon and ball with no girl there which means the girl is most likely gone.
