for my current project i am in a group with the lovely emmie, kat, james and wai sum. we were asked to watch a film (any film) and choose a still from it. from this still we have create it life size and down to a tee, then photogragh it with the correct colouring and gels to create the exsact still.
we chose to the film "Noir albino". i reconmend u watch it, its amazing!
In movies the coming-of-age genre has been formed, reformed, recycled, copied, and in the case of Noi the Albino, refreshed. In an Icelandic village sitting at the foot of a massive glacier, a bald, skeletal teenage misfit named Nói lives a commonly angst-ridden lifestyle. Amidst his day-to-day offerings, which are limited to trudging around the frost-bitten streets and sitting at his school desk, he finds few serene moments to kick it in his basement's sub-floor space and ponder the existence he wishes he could escape to. When he meets the new gas station attendant Iris and finds her charm nearly irresistible, a slimmer of hope presents itself. However, destined to follow in the footsteps of his slacker father, Nói's attempts at escaping his bleak life are simply clumsy and ill planned. deadpan humor in depressing and unconventional characters is shown though out this film. They plan their clothing around it, their jobs, and it seems that their personalities reflect it as well; the village's inhabitants are all calm, introverted, and perhaps cynical. Surely this quiet atmosphere makes it mark on the film, literally when Nói describes the animal museum as being the wildest place in town.
