The One Word Film project requires students to create a short film that represents a single word through visual storytelling, using no dialogue. The film should be 1-1.5 minutes long and include only instrumental audio. Each group must brainstorm, create a storyboard, shoot, and edit the film using their own footage.
For our project, we were assigned the word “sorrow.” Our film depicts two kids walking together before one turns on the other and bullies him. Later, one of the aggressors regrets his actions and helps the bullied kid up, highlighting the theme of remorse and sadness.
We brainstormed by visualizing the impact of bullying and mapped out a simple storyboard to outline the sequence of events. I used Adobe Premiere for editing, incorporating instrumental music to enhance the emotional tone.
One thing that worked well was the use of close-up shots to capture the characters’ emotions. Next time, I would focus more on smoother transitions between scenes. Here’s the link to our project.
