The Mysterious Explorations of Jasper Morello (Personal Opinion)

The short movie "The Mysterious Exploration of Jasper Morello" started in a sepia coloured style. There was a big steam punk influence through out the movie, which was shown by the way the people and buildings looked. The images in the short film were made into silhouettes, the people had small amounts of details but were still in silhouette. I liked the dark and gothic style theme throught out the movie. There was colour within the movie, it was mostly in the background but it put more emphasis on the objects in the foreground. The only point when the people had colour or detail was when they were inflected by the sickness which was the main part if the short film.
I would say the short film had a small message that ran through out the film, it was constantly asking the purpose of man and what we do to give purpose in our lives. This was shown by the trials the main character Jasper Morello was presented by.
