1. One thing I noticed about Melies' style is that uses many camera tricks and illusions. His films are almost surreal, with bizarre plot lines and dream- like shots.
2. Some consistent elements that appeared throughout his films is a feeling of surrealism and unrealistic plots. He also uses many different tricks that appear to have one person appear in a scene multiple times. He used camera tricks and illusions in almost every one of his films that we saw today.
3. Yes, I enjoyed many of his films, especially One Man Band and The Prolific Magical Egg. I thought that the tricks and and layering of film made it very visually interesting, and I loved the idea of the egg morphing into different objects.
4. One thing that I am going to take away from watching these films is a real appreciation for layering and blocking film. I really loved the way he made himself appear multiple times in one scene, and i hope to maybe be able to do that in one of my films.
