Short Film Planning

Yesterday Ms Pemberton read out a list of groups and - as I requested - I'm working solo!

Yesterday afternoon and this morning, I've been brainstorming ideas.  I started out with 3 ideas initially:

• The first idea was about 3 people who had the same prophecy: that something would happen to impact their lives......no.  Already, I could see that the narrative would be too long-winded for a short film.  So I moved on to idea number 2.....
• Idea number 2: A massive chase sequence (abstract and no storyline) which would use many angles to show a man being chased by another, sinister looking man.  Parlously pondering on whether to use this idea to turn in to a short film (as I'd been angling towards the idea and thinking about it for weeks prior) I decided not to - 
• Idea number 3 was better.  I've recently been taking long walks around the River Thames and on the streets of London.  On my long walks, I've noticed bizarre things and taken pictures of things which amazed me.  My mind has been instilled and I decided that this third idea was the best out of all three because it excited me so much and I was so inspired from the things I saw that I wanted to use them to create my short-film.  

This morning we were in the computer room and I began researching locations which I wanted to film at.  Other things I planned included who was going to be my boom operator and who'd be with me for security.  Planning - my ideas are still being seeded.  It's going well, 2 days in.
