Harvie+Krumpet

====My First impressions on Harvei Crumpet continuously changed. At first I thought it would have been a child's animated Short Film. But then it turned out to be a movie that had a deep meaning and a very beautiful message. What I thought about the film is the message that is sent. In my opinion the message was that there are different types of smart, just because someone has a disability doesn't mean you should treat them in any other way. They are no different to us. That was my first impression on the message that Harvei Krumpet conveyed.====

====The short film in my opinion was an entertaining piece of work that portrayed relevant situations that people can go through as they age and face new challenges. He, of course, suffered more than the average human but the fact that he has the ability to move on is inspiring. The situations that Harvie faced could be devastating depending on the persons outlook on life and we see that persistence as well as motivation can help people to carry on with life through the way that Harvie had dealt with these affairs. While it was an eccentric idea that was portrayed in the short film, you couldn’t help but find it humorous. I believe it was successful in bringing together wittiness and arousing humour. - Christine-Ann Tecson====

My first impression of the short film, //‘Harvie Krumpet’//, is that it was a slightly odd yet entertaining film that used an interesting medium to create its characters. I enjoyed the pace of the film, showing the life, hardships and triumphs of Harvie Krumpet. The clay-type animation tied well with the portrayal of the main character and if it were to be shot with real people the communication of the meaning of the film would be lost. The story of the underdog was portrayed in a new and unusual way making it different to stories of a similar nature. - EMMA WILLIAMS

1. When the short film Harvie Krumpet began, I thought it was going to be a film that had a target audience of very young people. The idea of it being in an animated format also drew me away at first but as the movie progressed, I came to understand why this technique was used. The ideas that were explored in the movie also made me think twice and kept me interested as to what would happen next. There was also humour at times and the facts that randomly came between scenes made the movie more enjoyable. Cinzia Favotto

When the film first started and I realised it was a claymation film, I was not very impressed. I thought it may be a film with no real point and so I was not thinking much of the film at this stage. Once it started with the birth of Harvie I thought it was quite cute and was further intrigued as the film developed to tell his life story from start to finish and turned out to be a very funny and original story of a man who has turrets and the adventures he undertakes through the development of the film.===== Rachel Lorizio

====Once the short film, Harvey Krumpet began, l thought it would be a hysterical and humorous. Not only this, l considered it as a film for young children which would be simple with no particular meaning embedded in it. However, as the film progressed l began to realize that this was not true. In particular when Harvey was born, l felt that his life wouldn't run smoothly, although experiencing many challenging throughout his life.==== Carol Kong

====The quote indicates that there is a character in the movie that has a very low self esteem in this case Harvei Krumpet. In this film Harvey Krumpet thinks of himself as nothing. He thinks he is a retard like everybody else does. The quote at the beginning shows the complete lack of self esteem and confidence.====

====This quote provided to us at the beginning of the film is very significant. It shows us that there are people in the world who are generally phenomenal or become of this standard. However, we are given the opportunity to believe that this film is not about either one of those categories but the underdogs. The ones who aren't as lucky or aren't as great as the aforementioned categories. This is what captures and makes the audience want to continue viewing the movie. - Christine - Ann Tecson====

2. This quote made me think that some very interesting ideas were going to be explored. However, the last part, ‘but then there are others’ made me think that perhaps this movie was going to focus more on those others. Those slightly different individuals in society. Cinzia Favotto ====This quote at first seemed like it was going to give insight to how the movie might continue, but after the famous quote finished on the screen and the last line flashed up, it suggested that this film was to be quite humourous and will perhaps follow the life of one of ‘the others’.====

Rachel Lorizio
====This quote assists in giving the audience an idea and a clue of what the film will be about. The use of "........" shown before the phrase "and then there's the others" portray a sense of hesitation and disappointment, in addition, it allows the viewers to focus on these words. This suggests that this short film will give more attention to the people that are born not so great.==== Carol Kong
