Girls' Generation: A History Part 2

DO NOT RE-UPLOAD A fan made film on South Korea's most popular girl group; Girls' Generation. The film will take the audience through their early years in their company, S.M. Entertainment, all the way to present time with their latest Korean album; ''I Got a Boy''. Director's comments: Part 2 explores how the girls fell into a state of melancholy after the Black Ocean incident and how they slowly recovered with time, healing little by little. The Black Ocean incident is something very important that happened to them which made them stronger mentally. The Black Ocean taught them that there are people in the world who simply will not like them no matter what; it is one of the realities of life and we all face it everyday. During the girls' downfall, I implemented many sound effects of the ocean because I wanted to show how they were being drowned by these fandoms during the black ocean incident and how it was suffocating them, leaving a scar in their hearts. They all cope in their own ways to heal and the music (''Tree of Life'' by ''Park Ji Yoon''), I felt really complimented that process; the process of recovery. The voice of a SONE during this scene was used to tell the girls that despite everything bad that happened to them, it was never one of us, we would never betray them. I used my voice as the SONE, manipulating it in software to resemble a voice of both a young boy and a girl. I felt that the words said would not be as powerful if two different people said it and so I tried to find a balance between both sexes. In part 2, adverts are slowly beginning to come in and I used this in a way which would resemble a commercial break on a regular TV show. I chose to include adverts because I wanted to show that the more successful Girls' Generation were becoming as entertainers, the more contracts they were getting from different advertising agencies due to their popularity. Advertising beauty products and food were also a big part in my choice in deciding which specific one I would include. Girls' Generation are known to be very beautiful young women who look very healthy and in good shape, and so I specifically included a beauty product to show how much of an influence they are becoming in their country. This is also the same reason why I included a food advert; people were being influenced in what they should eat by watching the girls themselves advertise a specific food on screen. The last scene in the video shows the girls at peace, completely healed from their terrible experiences and stronger than ever, ready to tackle anything head on in the future. I chose clips of them cycling away and waving their hands as to tell the audience that they have said goodbye to the past and looking forward to the future. I implemented sounds of nature to display a sense of tranquillity. There is something so beautiful about the display of affection between the girls that it puts a tear in my eye as it reminds me of the human bonds I have with my own family and friends.
