Steel Homes




Steel Homes' gives the viewer an insight to the storage system, revealing secrets. Moving from steel cage to steel cage. we experience tales of heartbreak and stories of liberation, adventure and leaving the past behind.

In this film film the theme is 'Why use a steel cage'. The directors aim in this film is to inform the viewers about why steel cages maybe used and seeing different types of characters from several backgrounds using the steel cages.

The film structure relates to the content by using the voice over of the subject shown visually on the screen. This also stood out to me because  on the screen the subject  is packing and  clearing out of their storage. While the voice over explains why they are using the storage system and what the items mean to them.

The 2 techniques that I really thought profited the film were the cutaways and the way the different voice overs were used to accompany the  visuals. I  liked the  cutaways because the way they used them broke the typical convention of the way the two elements are used.

The sound is appropriate to the film because it sets the lonley atmosphere and it relates to whats being shown e.g( the first shot was of a life moving and the sound of it comes through in the editing).
