Homework #4- Filming Locations

I think that it is amazing how some people can go back, deconstruct and revisit different locations of a film and compare it to the original look that was filmed. Itā€™s clear to see, from the side by side video, that there has been some changes to some of the locations that has been made since the shooting days. From the videos there has been some remodeling done on certain buildings, some painting done, and some environmental changes. Itā€™s really impressive how Attia can go to these Sonoma County and point out the various locations that were used to film ā€œThe Birdsā€. There must be a lot of preparation and research done to achieve this. The fact that itā€™s his hobby also adds to the quality of work he has put into this video. Everything is his work is so authentic all the way down to the small brief moments of the scene. He films the roads that Tippi Hedren drives on, to other smaller scenes by the bay.Heā€™s also exposing and informing a lot of information for other fans of this film as well. It also makes other people further appreciate ā€œThe Birdsā€ by being more knowledgeable and for others, a little nostalgic perhaps.
