Director's Comments

My first attempt at something non-violent. I listened to the song ("the face of boe" by Murray Gold) and I realised I had to do this. This is also part of my ICT coursework which is why I had to make it informative at the end, a bit like an advert. Also, I have produced a new Bling Blong Studios logo for my new widescreen format. i made the lightening bolts in Paint.net after seeing a tutorial done by "glstudios" on youtube. I created the depression title and credits on dafont.com. I hope you enjoy watching!

Staff Review

david reino :
"Depression" is an interesting film that illustrates a concept through a glimpse into the life of an unnamed character as he goes about his daily affairs. For the most part, this concept is well-presented, and the thought-provoking piano music helps to set the mood well. The concept being illustrated, however, becomes especially clear at the end of the film, where the viewer becomes informed about the mass numbers of people who experience depression. All in all, this film, at its short duration, is worth a watch, and doing so may provide you with an eye-opening message besides.
