So.
I have news that comes with some good and some bad.
I am working all alone for this portfolio project!!!!
Scary, I know. But I think that the benefits outweigh the risk in this case. I know that I will be better off being allowed to have all of the creative freedom. I work well in groups but only when everyone is ready, willing, and able to help out, you know?
Anyway, this means that I get to make every decision all alone totally based on what I want, this gives me sooooo much freedom which, granted, is amazing however it is so much pressure and I cannot stop pondering this project. I have so many different ideas all in my head which, side note, I cannot wait to start filming and producing because I am so excited.
Let me share with you some ideas.
I want there to only be one main actor and little to no dialogue. My plan is for this movie to be about a teenage girl who is rich and famous, although I am a little limited because I don't have limos and fancy things like that I think that it will be a fun hurdle to get over and I think I can enjoy attempting to create a set and a film opening that feeds into my vision for this project. I plan on having castings for the main actress this weekend- I want her to be a girl, but if no one fits exactly what I'm looking for then I will do it myself.
There are pros and cons to acting in it myself. The pros are that for the most part I won't need to disturb anyone when I am trying to film this is good when I am editing and realize I want more footage. Cons however are that I need to really direct whoever I get to film and they need to do exactly what I want in terms of shots and camera movements because it all has so much meaning in the overall development of my film opening. I will weigh those both and consider it while I am finding someone to be in it.
Tight shots, use of lighting- either very dark or very bright, and a controlled setting- my room, are some of the ways that I have brainstormed thus far to overcome the obstacle that I have of not being able to show the life of someone who is rich and famous in my home and everyday surroundings.
I am going to find some examples of what I am picturing so you can better understand my vision, keep an eye open for my next post!
Lots of love,
Lina
