The Black Hole


This is a sci-fi short film, in which the character finds that a piece of paper he photocopies has a black whole init which allows him to put his hand though objects


  • The font of the title is in a comic book style which gives us the feeling something supernatural is going to happen
  • The way the film start is very good because all we see is a office worker looking bored and tired of his work. The low key lighting also adds to the feeling of it be a boring place.
  • I think a great shoot is when there is a low angle shot looking through the black hole, its good because it simple but shows us (may sound stupid) that the hole paper isn’t just a misprint
  • along with the alien sound which plays when its looking through the hole adds the suspense
  • the concept is very good and gets the audience intrigued, like when he puts his hand through the vending machine and takes sweets , it has us think what would we use the paper
  • the ending is very good because we don’t really expect it because we are so surprised by the fact he actually able to put his hand though and take as much money as he wants but we see him get more and more greedy. so that when he goes in and gets trapped we end up having no sympathy for him
  • I think the style of the film was good because it was very basic and simple concept; they used a lot of editing techniques.
  • The mise-en-scene also makes it believable because its such an ordinary setting which makes it more shocking when some thing out the ordinary
