Old Fangs, which is this week's short film, was an interesting film. This one unlike the past shorts actually had dialogue between characters, although not much. The young wolf was on a search to mend his relationship with his father. Him and his friends drove far and walked through the scary woods in order to get to his father's house. The woods is a scary place and the creator of the film displayed that through sounds and noises to create suspense. As they journeyed along, the moods changed; as the moods changed, so did the colors of the woods. It went from green, to blue, to yellow, and so on. That aspect of the film was very interesting and exciting.
They finally reached the house and the young wolf enters. He is a little uneasy about talking to his father and you could tell through the sounds and the tone of his voice. As he sat there, he reminisced about his childhood when everything was okay. But he had one memory that might have shown why the relationship with his father was estranged. I really like how this animation film used different shapes, colors, sounds, little dialogue, and creativeness to tell a story. Unlike the previous film, Between Bears, this film had a main purpose and clear concise story to tell and it told it well.
