Into the Wild - Video Essay Analysis For my Independent Project, I will be completing a 10 minute video essay analysis on the film Into the Wild . This is one of my favourite films, and the idea for this assignment was born from an essay that I wrote for a different module. I found this essay's constraints, that being 500-700 words, very constricting and it did not do the film justice. This is the short essay that I wrote for the module, and it will form the general jist of what I'm trying to achieve. While it'll be the inspiration for the video essay, I'm sure I'll develop my points better and delve into avenues that aren't even mentioned.
