The title of this short film is called, ‘This is me’ it depicts this concept of isolation in a very ‘unusual way’. The film has been captured by taking a series of photographs of a face being applied with face paint. The face paint is of a skeleton, the skeleton resembles the inner self. I will give a short explanation of the film before you watch it, this may give you a better understanding of how I am trying to depict ‘Unusual Portraiture’.
The film is jumpy, this has been done in a purposeful manner. The face starts of normal, then slowly throughout the film the paint starts to appear. Then in the middle of the film the paint starts to reverse and slowly goes back to how it was originally. There is a symbolic nature to this film, that inside we are all isolated like the face paint appearing that resembles our real selves.
