The Mary Ward Art Show came around the very first week of May. It was great success with all the amazing artwork, photography, and other wonderful creations. Whenever the art show comes around the biggest hit is usually the films that are shown. There are always a lot of variety of films this year. From the animations, to full length films, to the short films. The video class were all able to take part in making something for the art show, and having the chance to show it to everyone.
The films that were in the art show were all amazing. They all had different stories and different techniques that were brought on to the screen. Everyone was able to experience new concepts and new ideas. The film that got the most reaction from me would have to be, Plug In, Baby! The first time I saw this film was on the opening day of the art show. It was one of the first films that I saw it. The moment I saw it, I was in totally awe. The look of the film was just amazing. It was so clear because of the high definition. This made watching the film even more enjoyable. The choice of music for this film was just really great. The songs suited every scene well and when I found the playlist for the song I just had to download it. The whole idea for the film was so original and it just kept making me want more. I was so sad when the film was over because there were so many questions that were just unanswered in my head. It was a funny, cute, and emotional. The way the director made the film is very unique. He put the MSN conversations as text on the screen, while there was a voice over reading the texts, and you can see the emotions of the actors too. This film is just amazing to watch, and you should totally check it out on YouTube.
Having anything in the art show is always an exciting feeling. I remember coming to the Mary Ward Art Show when I was in grade eight and I thought the coolest part were the films. Coming into the grade 11 film course it was exciting thinking that a film I made would get to be in it. That people would be talking. Sadly, the film that I was working on did not get to be in the art show. I wish i was able to experience the feelings that my fellow friends got to experience when their films were shown. I know next time for sure a film that I will be working on will be in the art show.
Overall the art show was a great experience to be part of. From the long hours working on the films, to all the set-up that was being done. To the all the long hours in the video studio, never being a dull moment because of all the jokes that we all got to share. To screening the films and hearing all the reactions. From making new friends to getting to know people even better. The 2010 Tempest Art Show is an experience I will not forget.
