The Film Meat

Within the film "Meat" There is a female that seems to start out in a zone of calmness. It is viewed that she is eating or attempting to eat raw meat. As she is trying to cut into the meat and smell it the meat happens to come alive and crawl off the yellow plate and hiss at her scaring her. At first this gave me human vs. food vibes, and it also gave me the feeling of her fighting off her demons. As things calmed down, she then picked up the knife and stabbed the meat laughing and looking into the camera as the film ended. The principle of exaggeration being used in meat can been see at (10 seconds) when she goes in for a cut of meat. As she is going in for this cut of meat, she overexaggerates the cut making it feel like she had no tension and control of her body, and the knife was either heavier than her or in control. The principle of exaggeration is also being used at (17 seconds) when she sniffs the piece of meat that she cut. As she is sniffing the meat it looks like she turns into an animal sniffing the meat at an extremely exaggerated fast pace which is not human like at all. The final principle of exaggeration is being used at (51 seconds) when she picks up the knife and stabbed the moving meat with aggression. This movement look too exaggerated as it did not look necessary to use that much force and fluid movement on a piece of meat. Contrast is used in the film "meat" to portray a sense of horror to the scene. this then gives the feeling that the evitable is about to occur in an area we may not expect. Hence the food randomly moving off the plate.
