First Ideas and Intentions

For this project regarding a response to time space and place, Ben, Isaac, Simon and I have decided to work togetrher again as we feel that we work well together. We came up of an idea inspired by the film "Coffee and Cigarettes" of making our own portmanteau film, centered around a park bench, with each of us taking responsiblity and control of our own section of the film.

We all have different ideas to explore within our section. In mine I wish to explore the idea of someone facing death, and confronting it. I also wish to explore more of the visual aspect of the film as I have always been better at the writing and narrative side of film and haven't explored how I could tell the audience a story without having the character say it in a monoitlogue. As much as I love writing and narrative, I fear my work will suffer if I continue to ignore the visual aspects of it,  particuarlly as film is primarily a visual art form.

I have written a script so that I have the story clear in my head and am currently in the process of going over and improving the script.
