Stanley Pickle

Setting:
Small house, countryside, spring, near the forest

Conflict:
Person vs Himself

Climax:
When the boy dig up the dead bird to bring back a smile of the girl. He finds the dead bird from the grave that the girl made, and turn it into a clockwork bird by taking out all the organs like how he did for his parents.

Symbol:
Wind- Freedom
Bird- Living things
House- the boys territory
Toy- Insensitivity
Forests- Pathway to freedom, decision making
Clock- Never-ending routined everyday life

Irony:
When the girl comes to the bird's grave to put a flower, and meets the boy. After seeing the clockwork bird that a boy made flying oddly, the girl runs away to the forest from fear.

Theme:
The theme of this video is that robots, or artificially made products can not give the love and warmness that the livings thing have. The object might move and do the job that it used todo, but their movement is unnatural, and it does not feel the pain like how living things does. Irony became meaningful for the boy, because he noticed that even if his parents exists and does the work he needs because he made them move systematically, he does not receive the love and warmness that he used to get from them. Until he met the girl and made the bird, he had forgotten what true love and warmness he had been received from his parents when they were alive.
This short video's theme is very meaningful to our society that we live now. As the artificial intelligence (AI) technologies and cloning advances, the possibility of human would become infinite. On the other hand we should never forget, how much similar the technology can duplicate a thing a person that we want, they are no longer the same as what it used to be.
