Gasman By Lynn Ramsay

In CMPP a little while ago we watched some drama shorts this is one I will be analysing, Gasman by Lynn Ramsay a clip of it is here if you want a little look http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yP-XQPGE71s.


I enjoyed this short quite a lot, I liked the way the camera gave the audience a child's perspective, the close ups of peculiar things and snippits of information is what gave that feel most along with the focus that often shifted and became blurred. It turns out to be a child's realisation of a father with children in another family and the girls view of the other children mimics our view however an educated audience realises a few minutes before the girl that the children are her siblings and her realisation has an emotional impact on the audience. I really like the way the girl is the character the audience identifies with, it gives the short a unique feel.
