Silence Is Golden / Slapstick Comedy

The brief for this project was part of my second year at university final coursework. The purpose of the project was to celebrate the golden years of silent cinema. I choose slapstick comedy because I think the audience needs to be given the chance to know and understand the origins of this genre. How all the exaggerated silly movements and mild comic violence from the 20s led to the classic comedy we all know nowadays.
