Partly Cloudy
Produced by Pixar
An animated short film about birds that deliver whatever their chosen cloud makes for them to give to people on earth, however as most of the fluffy nice cloud produce cute things such as puppies and kittens the most beaten up bird has to deliver from a sad cloud that often produces not the best or safest of animals. In the beginning a tracking shot is used to follow the birds to show where they deliver the parcels; the first place in which the clip cuts to is delivering a baby to a woman's window it then cuts to two kittens being delivered to a cat flap, then to two puppies at a kennel of an older dog this then presents that the birds are delivering parcels for the good and not the bad as well as it gives the audience and overall brief to what the short film is going to be about. It then carries on to use a tracking shot to follow a group of peck's as it is then leading the audience to where the presents come from in the first place which is up from the clouds, as it shows each peck going back to its beloved cloud.
It then uses a medium shot to present all the happy clouds laughing together then pans down to the unhappy cloud where he is alone and underneath everyone else, however is still presented to be happy as he is smiling whilst making his new creation, even though it still comes out as something bad he is still shown to be happy as it is his own creation and tried to teach it to behave. His own peck then returns however his peck isn't in as good condition as the other pecks due to most of the parcels he has to deliver try to destroy him as is shown throughout the clip, however he still always returns to Gus the grumpy cloud and when he does they show affection and love towards each other by hugging and joking about however as the clip goes on the peck is presented to start to get worn out and fed up by what he is doing.
It then cuts away to a happy cloud as this is supposed to shown the perspective of what the Peck and Gus are looking at as it shows the happy cloud producing something cute and harmful, it then cuts back to them both and Gus looks at his peck in despair as Gus knows that he could be much better off with one of the other clouds however the peck still then carries on to deliver his parcels for him. It then pans up to the other clouds again therefore connoting to the audience that something is going to happen with the main peck and the happy clouds, the Peck then flies off to the cloud that he keeps looking over at then a gliding motion to a low angle is used to show the build up of Gus's anger as he begins to produce lightning, a close up is then used to show the emotions of his face, then a medium shot is used to present the Peck and his new clouds reaction to when Gus starts producing rain (crying) as they look over in shock, the peck then flies over with a parcel in which he has just received from the happy cloud, a feather then flies over his face which is a signifier of the Peck himself therefore presents the arrival of his return, he then opens the parcel and the audience see that he has got protective gear so that he can no longer get hurt by the parcels that Gus produces.
I thought that this was a very good animation as the idea of the film then produces a comforting message to the audience about how friends should never give up with each other they should persevere and try and help one another and comes across as very professional produced.
