Creation of a Short Film : Summary of My Final Idea...

Although I have always been focused on the concept of revolving my film around the object of shoes, I have found it challenging to develop a fixed structure for my film and therefore found it hard to become passionate about my idea as I have not been able to "picture" how my film will come together. I therefore decided to look back at my research I conducted for my AS piece to look at how I over came the dilemma of which genre of to follow for my opening, this I overcame by brainstorming both ideas looking at the positive and negatives and coming up with an opening that Incorporated both genres. I therefore decided to do a similar thing for my A2 piece, and have finally come up with an idea (which I promise is my final, final idea!) that incorporates structure, the object of shoes, different peoples lives, a protagonist character and the big city into one! Below I have created a summary of potential elements that I shall incorporate within my short film :

Genre: Short Film
Film Type: Silent Film
Title: Moments
Music: Original piece composed by my friend Alex Reed
Summary of the opening: A fictional drama, following the journey of one women as she seeks to find the truth behind different pairs of shoes. From sky scrapper heels of the business world, to vintage brogues of a city park, through the use of sound and imagery it addresses the question as to whether we really can judge a character by its shoes and whether we are all culprits of living our life in the same pair of shoes rather than exploring the world and culture in which we live in, whether we are victims of living out lives for the week rather than living our lives for the moments
