Be Kind Rewind results in inspiration all round.
The name pretty much introduces the topic, but for the sake of it, and my boredom, I’ll expand.
Be Kind Rewind is a film, if you have not seen or heard of it, about an old Video store which is lacking money and needs renovations to continue running. Unfortunately, it doesn’t begin well, when Jack Black, one of the main characters, wipes all the tapes when he strangely gets magnetized by a huge electricity generator. It’s strange, I know, but from here it begins to get interesting.
Over the next hour of the film, they decide that to continue business they must re-record these famous films that have come out over the years, and to be honest, even though it wasn’t as funny as expected it was still a joy to watch how they did it, and their enthusiasm towards it. They soon became popular amongst the people, who found their home-made, 20 odd minute editions of these films hilarious and soon enough, they decided to include these people in the films, decrease the times and earn more money.
I won’t tell you how it ends, there really is no point. I just wanted to point out how interesting and inspirational this was to a 15 year old like myself, and how filming can be enjoyable to film and watch. It’s given me a lot of ideas for projects to do next summer, if I’ve been able to buy a video-camera and some software to edit it upon. It really is a good job I got close friends with high knowledge of the stuff though, because I’d just buy the one which looked awesome.
Anyway, however meaningly pointless telling you all that was, I just thought it was something worthwhile for the blog.
Thanks for reading,
H.I. (Tom)
