Edge of Space

This short "Edge of Space" is a great example to explain the difference between making a movie and creating a movie.

This movie is made wonderfully. Cinematography and all the technical aspects are superb without a doubt. The people working on this project definitely know how to make a movie. It feels like following the guidelines in a book, "How to make a good movie". And here's the problem. I literally can see the step-by-step concept of making everything it needs. Which it needs, of course, and which is not wrong at all. But it feels like the part of creating was left out, the most important part of a movie. The artistic part that you can't find in the book "How to make a good movie". You really can do everything right like the team of "Edge of Space" did, but without the creating part , something is missing. Depth, emotions, and complexity, to name a few. The certain something that makes the difference between a movie that was made and a movie that was created. We live in a world where we could use bots as actors, but we don't. Because a bot never would be able to give us what a human can give us. Also, we could use bots as writers, but we don't (scarce) because then too something would be missing. This movie feels a tiny bit like it was made from a bot regarding the profundity. It's almost too perfect, and perfect in this case is a bit tedious. I miss the part of "they were letting things happen that might not have been planned at all," or "they did something that is not written down in the rule book", like I said the creative part. But I'd watch it again anytime. Visually, it is really something. It's produced great - writing and directing; they have to develop or bring in more people from the creative world.
