Arts University Bournemouth Portfolio (Show Reel)

This is my official submission to the Arts University Bournemouth. It's a five-minute showreel highlighting three films that I've made throughout the IB film course: "Good Riddance", "Vestige", and "Goodbye, Alex". "Good Riddance" is a seven-minute realist short film based in Hong Kong which focuses on a young teenage girl's (Lakshmi) conflicting relationship between the influences of social media and her traditional Indian family. It essentially revolves around the idea of how strangers on social media can deceive many young teenagers in this contemporary society. As a realist film, it captures a segment of Lakshmi's lifestyle up until the point in which she agrees to meet her online 'boyfriend', Ashok, and decides to run away from her family to find him. "Vestige" is a seven-minute psychological thriller about an amnesiac teenager who had just been given a confidential file containing photos that could help him remember his late friend. "Goodbye, Alex" is set in a public park where a farewell party has been organized for Alex, a friend who is going to leave Hong Kong. The short film revolves around two friends playing a game of chess. They have a final conversation with each other (one being Alex) discussing their feelings about 'going away'.
