My Name Is Parker-Harry Quilley

My Name Is Parker is a romantic short film, in which we see the use of male stereotypes of domestic violence within a relationship, as well as teaching others to forgive and forget about things in the past. 

The target audience for this short film would range from 13+ as the light violence scene means it cant be shown to a too younger audience, if we were to involve and violence within our short film, I think we would keep it as little and as toned down as possible as it can take away from some of the more valuable parts of the film.

The short film follows Chris Voglers theory of a heroes journey, where we see the girl in distress, call upon Parker to comfort her, and by doing so stealing her heart away from her boyfriend, which also relates to Parkers enthusiasm for 'Stealing'. The use of darker lighting nearer the end of the clip when Parker is not around highlights her sadness without him, even though they have only known each other for a couple or even one day.






The film also highlights the danger of a kleptomaniac, which is representing disabilities as not only in a bad light, but in a way which makes us view them as the same as us. The clips of Parker and how we are told he steals things through-ought the movie, really highlights the dangers if someone with a disorder or disabilities, even if they look as though they are normal.



The use of a non-diagetic soundtrack through the film,  implies the change in feelings and attitude from the start. It allows us to relies the obvious change in heart of the girl and how she had fallen for Parker, which is made clear with the very calm romantic soundtrack to finish the film, really highlighted the change.
