Final Cut - Last-night screening party

Final Cut

A selection of short films ranging from one minute to fourteen in length were screened in three sections and proved to be a really interesting evening's entertainment. Shorts are like poetry, because of their very nature - in being short, they are also very rich. The only reason I mention this is because being bombarded by a series of unique stories and styles, it's easy to become overloaded with images and concepts to digest. There were a lot of highlights, but I think my favourite was 'Black or White?', which was cleverly edited and well conceived. The finale was the screening of a short which had been made throughout the evening with members of the audience participating, which was also very good and loads of fun. The Final Cut team run a monthly night at Komedia throughout the year, definitely worth checking out.
