EVALUATION: Challenging the Forms and Conventions, Audio Commentary

 

This post is an audio commentary where I discuss how we challenged the forms and conventions of the war genre, specifically with Vietnam films. Accompanied by screenshots of 'Red Tide' and some of our inspirations, be they other films or historical sources, the video runs to around 9 minutes.

If the pictures distract you from the audio commentary, you may wish to look away from the screen. Enjoy!

Apologies for the low picture quality.

 

Despite filming on a small scale, I also feel that the fast paced and intense nature of our action sequences maintain the lure of a big action film, despite being smaller scaled and more tightly focused.
