In Kirsten Johnson’s short film The Above, viewers are able to identify different view points of a blimp. All of the information that was explained in the short film was new to me, so it was very interesting to learn something that I wouldn’t usually learn about before. I believe the message in this documentary is that this blimp tells us so much information about the world. It can fly over many different countries, but it still has the same meaning. I really enjoyed the different shots that she took of the blimp. Seeing it at different angles was extremely interesting, because sometimes I had to look in the frame to see where the blimp actually was. I am left with a sad feeling after watching this, because this blimp can really show us how this world could possibly change for the worse.
