'Never Forget' Analysis - A2 Transition Module - Matthew Bishun

'Never Forget'
  • This short film is set within a city showing the breakdown of a relationship on Valentines Day.
  • Below is the back of our female protagonist, wearing a smart suit jacket. This indicates that she is very professional and is reasonably wealthy. We cannot tell her age from this image but we assume that there is a large age gap between the couple.
  • The setting is related to a city night life. The female has had to lie to her partner/husband on the phone telling him where she was on the previous night. Here, many flashbacks are used of her actually out clubbing. We see her with another man and know that she is cheating on her partner. The pace quickens at this point to show her dancing and enjoying herself away from her partner.
  • Her partner, the male protagonist is seen, again to be reasonably wealthy. His costume is a smart black suit with a red bow tie indicating that this is a special occasion. Below, we see him arranging his cufflinks, a sign of professionalism and taking pride in his appearance on a special evening.


  • To the right, is the man himself on the phone to his partner saying 'Good night last night?', in which she lies by saying 'Chinese takeaway and a bottle of wine'. In this image we can see the background of the river and buildings lit up in the backdrop.

    This still needs a lot of work - it is rather descriptive and doesn't go into anywhere near enough detail explaining hw the technical codes combine to create meaning - about the type of man and women the characters are.

    You need to give yourself a lot more time to complete this type of work. This is around top level 1 / low level 2
