Telling Lies

We watched a short film called 'Telling Lies'. It was not a live action film but a combination of voice over and sub titles. The cool thing was that subtitles did not match what the characters were saying but showed what they were thinking instead. It was a really cool little short that pokes fun at all the little white lies you can make in a given situation.

The drama is in the subtext - the unspoken word. Whatever a character says is not always the truth. Its a great tool that can add depth to the story and the characters.
