This is a review by Alex Clinton on the film Archie's final Project. The film is about a teen coming-of-age romantic dramedy about a media-obsessed geek and the most beautiful and twisted girl in school.
The camera work in this film reminded me of the Blair which project by the way it was shot (Defiantly not on storyline) and with this camera work came some very playful and innovative animation which is seen commonly through the film. The camera work changes constantly through out the film going from POV shots to the other wide range such as over the shoulder and wide shots.
The film is mainly shot from a hand held prospective and not from the professional side of the camera many people either find this sort of camera work annoying or distracting from the magic of film but it work well here i think because of the use with the professional camera work.
When i was beginning to watch this film i could feel that it had a big topic to handle with much dignity. The fact that through out the film we see the main characters life and the way he lives and how he treats others around him gets the audience in a small sense into the mind set of Archie and the way he thinks and the way he lives his life.
