Inspired by “Contact Lenses” from Audre Lorde
My paper is about how life is very different from the fairy tales and happy endings that you see on TV. Even though the things we see in the movies only happen inside a screen, we want to believe that it will happen in real life as well. This is why we start expecting love to happen the way they do in the movies; we are blinded from reality. But in the end since our expectations are not met we only feel disappointment. This is why we need to get ride of these false hopes and live life for what it really is.
For my video I asked my friends to help me so it was really fun. I got to hang out with them while being productive for school. This video is suppose to show what we want and expect from love versus what actually happens.I decided to take away most of the audio so that the songs I’ve chosen is what moves the story. It first starts out with the meeting (Enchanted) then moves to the romantic stuff you see only in the movies (Fairytale), and finally the way reality works. (Just a Dream)
