The 5 Master Edits w/ Noah M.

Our Film, I've Went Ahead and Titled it (masterfully) as "PeepeePoopoo".

Contrast:  The way we did the contrast was I was sitting on a bench, all calm-like, then boom, I'm coming at you at Mach 10 (looked it up, Mach 10 is 7672.69 mph, sounds about right) smacking poles on the way over to you. The crappy watermarks of the TikTok logo and InShot logo only add to this experience overall enhancing it. They make me want to die but I find them funny at least.

Parallelism: In this one, Noah thought it would be a good idea to make us go down stairs, so prepare for a walking simulator twice as boring as anything you have ever seen. (but probably only about half as boring as that dumb "Cats" movie from 2 years ago.) The parallelism here is that we meet at the Trojan statue after walking stairs at opposing sides. 

Symbolism: This is symbolism for how awkwardly long mentally deficient people (Noah in particular) point a camera at a tree before they're happy with themselves. The result is they point it at a tree just long enough to make you want to die. Genuinely, this was my idea, we pointed the camera at the tree (albeit I didn't think he would point at it for as long as he did but maybe he's got something for trees that I don't know about.) and then back at me who was writing on a paper. I, of course wrote profanity after profanity but that didn't get caught on camera unfortunately. 

Simultaneity: Combination of ideas from Noah and I, I had the idea to steal a phone and then switch it to the camera, and he thought it was better to point it down at me while I do it from the top of the stairs, a good idea. This accomplishes simultaneity through him catching me stealing the phone. (Stealing my own phone by the way.)

Leitmotif: He accomplishes Leit Motif through capturing the theme of time or clocks, I really like the gears on the wall clock. As a fan of time travel films and the like, I was a fan I've got to say. Unfortunately though, the shot looks cropped and it was captured by Noah so there is only one thing to describe how I feel. 🤢🤮 <--- Emojis in case your whatever device you are grading this on doesn't allow you to see it. You could say these emojis are symbolism for Noah's existence. (Extra credit?)
