At the beginning of the short film there is a close up of a female and it looks like she’s in the middle of confrontation with someone.

Even though there is confrontation going on in the scene the background is still very bright and colourful which indicates that it’s still probably going to have a happy ending.

Over this scene there is a voice over and the tone of the voice is very soft which could indicate love.

The scene has plenty of light surrounding it. Light is portrayed as symbol of happiness and joy.

The mise en scene of his facial expression shows that he’s justbeen given bad news but his facial expression shows that he can easily get over it. It’s kind of a ‘I’m used to it’ look.This represents that he can move on quickly just like the short film itself. The short film uses facial expressions instead of narrative as it’s a quicker alternative.

The use of this gesture suggests that love short films can be quite humorous as well as serious.They are light hearted.

There's a new girl in this scene which shows new opportunities come along often in love short films.
