Sign of forest

Sigh of Forest by Runxin Mao (Mason)

The bushfires cause wild animals to lose their habitat, which is closely related to us. Although the virus has attracted our attention, the animal problem has not been solved, and we should continue to pay attention to this problem.

Motivation
In my free time, I like to go for a walk in the forest, listen to the sound of birdsong, and feel the wind blowing on my face. But the forest fire that occurred in November last year destroyed a large area of forest, Wild animals have lost their homes. When I go to the forest again, I can only see the charred trunk. With the advent of the virus, the problem of wildlife has not been solved, but people ’s attention has shifted. So I want to make a documentary about wild animals injured in a fire to make people aware of this problem.

Prompt
In this video, I combined found footage, archival footage and the footage I shoot in the forest. At the same time as the drama is very strong, it also makes the whole film very close to our daily life. Combined with the current hot discussion about masks, it enhances the audience’s sense of substitution.
