One Man Band

Well today, Mr Razol showed us a short video clip called One Man Band during English lecture and asked us to analyse the literary elements in the video. He told us to post it in our tutorial blogs, so here's mine and I'll be telling on the element of irony in the short video clip.

In the story, the element of irony is used in many different scenes. One of the examples is in the beginning of the story, the two musicians compete against one another to earn a coin from a little girl. The competition went on and on and in the end, the coin fell into the drain. This scene shows irony in the way that none of the musicians who worked so hard got the coin, but it ended up lost and belongs to no one. The second example of the element of irony is that the two musicians who have advanced musical instruments had to play so hard to earn a single coin but the later in the story, the little girl who took a little violin from one of the musicians and played effortlessly, got a sack of golden coins instead.

I think that's all that I'm going to write on the short video clip. Hope this gives all of you a little bit of idea on the element of irony in the story. Signing off for now and hope to see more posts on this short video. :)
