Our film class is conducted all in the internet. This is might be unheard of for some people, but really it is perfectly adequate. The elearning software that is used is not only capable of film manipulation and minor editing; it is also an online software that enables chat and video forums so that the class and the professor can interact online. This is just another example of how elearning software solutions are really creating so many possibilities not only in the field of employee development but also in the educational system.
The systems is also very simple and yet very effective. The videos, films, film clips, and even movies are available for us to download through the class. Actually the software protects the copyrighted material and it can be downloaded only through the elearning solutions software and only once by the student enrolled in the class. If one does not sign in to the account, then one will not have access to the films.
The film we were discussing this week was “In the Mood for Love” by the acclaimed director Wong Kar Wai. It was such a good film, it played out as visual poetry. The images that Wong Kar Wai captures are so beautiful, you can take each frame, print it out, and hang it on the wall of the museum.
It’s funny how Wong Kar Wai thinks that Tony Leung’s character has such a dark side. He claims that the reason why people tend to accept his character as a “Good Guy” is that because he has a kind face. But in fact, meeting in secret with the wife of the man who is having an affair with his wife (that was a twisty one) and role playing the breaking up, the affair of their spouses, is kind of neurotic. And people tend to accept this because of Tony Leung’s kind looking face.
