www.pawky.com - Eviction - Directed by Steve Loff
This is a short documentary about a family in New York being forcefully evicted from their apartment. They are not being evicted for not paying rent, but for occupying two apartments in the building, and this is due to the recent split of the parents. In the film you watch how the family react both emotionally and physically as their door is being knocked down by the police. Although it is a short film the viewer learns quite a bit about what is goin on because of text appearing to explain the story. I thought this was a very effective way narrating the picture without having to have a voice speaking over the scenes.

Text can have a powerfull affect with visuals and can help to give another dimension to the story.

This film by Simon Ellis ( local filmaker) uses text to great affect.
