We have been starting to focus on our individual projects since mid March. Since I have been concentrating on my group project (the ACM Gospel Choir Documentary) I have not had much time to work on my individual film.My idea is simple, I plan to create a short feature on modern day life and how we have adapted to today's world of fast food, fast cars and super fast broadband!
I did some research on how the internet and social networking has changed our lives:
Daily Mail
Science Buzz
The Internet Today
I have come up with a basic script idea and am starting to storyboard it.
During the first lecture where we discussed our individual projects we were shown a few example videos. One that really stuck with me was called 'Terminal Bar'. It was very artistic and used stills and a voice over in a number of cleaver ways. It inspired me to do my film in black and white, in a Film Noir-esque way. I think this will give it a more professional look as well as helping me emphasize the message i am trying to convey.
