青年电影人关注塑料消费的利弊

莱克西波特纳

Is plastic always bad? 例如, what about its benefits in medicine and public health during the Coronavirus pandemicHow does society misuse cost-effective plasticWhat are the biodegradable options for plastic packaging?

The short stop motion short film, 塑料: 恶棍或英雄 (现在在Planet Classroom Network YouTube频道上放映), focuses on why plastic is not a black and white issue.

Creator Shayna Zaidi Gupta shows us that when it comes to plastic, there are benefits and there are challenges. Gupta was the editor, cinematographerscreenwriter, and director of this LXL Ideas production. 在电影的最后, we also learn that it took 15 天, 过 500 图片, and numerous props all produced from repurposed materials to create the film.

塑料: 恶棍或英雄, a young girl teaches her grandmother that plastic has benefits as well as negative environmental impacts. The film shows that although we know plastic can be damaging, the way we use it and dispose of it is the bigger problem. Particularly during the Coronavirus pandemic, without plastic we would not have had syringes, inhalers, PPE suits, gloves, sanitizer bottles, or nebulizer masks. The girl explains to her grandmother that even though we are inundated with media messages that plastic is the problem, we need to take responsible steps toward sustainability because plastic is not going away any time soon. Gupta draws our attention to biodegradable products that have been developed and the importance of sorting waste for recycling.

Stop motion is a long process, and in this case it serves to make an entertaining and creative short film. 我会评价 塑料: 恶棍或英雄 4 出 5 星星. There were some issues with the camera that made the shots less than fluid when cut together, and the lighting could have been angled better. 然而, the background sound was great as it enhanced the film overall, and helped to move the message along. I really enjoyed the visuals and using a girl teaching her grandmother was a great way to get the message across. Using repurposed and recycled materials to create the props and characters emphasized the core purpose of the film.
