Ambiguous: open to more than one interpretation; not having one obvious meaning.

Our film is about how clothing isn’t something that needs to be gendered, men can wear “feminine clothing” and women can wear “masculine” clothing if they want to. In this day and age gender neutral clothing is starting to become the norm and we wanted to show off this controversial topic and encourage everyone to wear whatever they feel comfortable in wearing

Overall I think that this film was quite successful in the production and outcome as I think that our theme of cross dressing came out clearly through the use of audio video and images. I think the use of “collages” (mixture of videos and images in the same frame) worked really well in adding structure to our piece as it gave the audience a sneak preview of what the next outfit would look like but also helped to keep the audience entertained and cut down on footage time whilst still using the videos. Footage time was a problem as even after cropping images our film length was over 5 minutes long so the montages really helped to cut down on that time; the collages also allowed for more creativity and experimentation as we used different amounts of images/videos in every collage and organized them differently which I think made it interesting to watch.

I am also really pleased with the way the audio turned out as similarly with the photos and videos we had a lot of footage to go through as we had audio from interviews off youtube, audio interviews recorded by ourselves and background music/noises.

I think the warm hue used throughout the film works well in creating a “warm” and comfortable feeling to the film in a form of showing acceptance as it is okay to dress in the way you want and express yourself in any way you deem necessary as long as it doesn’t harm others. I think this also helped to give the film an aesthetically pleasing look to it as it gave it an almost old fashioned taste which I think contrasts well with the modern theme; this shows how far society has come but that there is still work to be done.

I think our main struggle we faced was going through all of our footage and cutting everything down to fit the 90 second brief; as this was the most time consuming process and made us force cut some scenes out. However I think that all our efforts really showed in the final presentation of our film as we picked the best videos that worked with the audios and photos and once we got all the videos in place the audio placement was easier as we knew where we wanted to fit everything.

I think that all our efforts and hardwork have been shown through this film and we are all happy that our message was able to come across to our audiences and we hope to have inspired people to stay open minded when it comes to clothing and try and maybe even experiment with different items of clothing to see if they can find a new found confidence; as after all clothing is just a piece of fabric that can be worn by anyone.
