The mask in the film represents fitting in with everyone, but also being used by the people who realize what the mask is when they talk about chess. The film shows that it relates to the poem when Hughes says that he wants to fit in; it's basically the exact opposite of the short film, so that's how it relates to it. I'm using the mask to show my enjoyment of technology and cameras.

Not in class for summary and reflection
