Presentation-the draft

I am going to shoot several scenes of daily routine of a person’s life, a girl. I will focus on the specific, small, detailed and ordinary life events, for example (the events I have in mind) getting dressed, putting on or take off make ups, getting up in the morning, eating, putting away stuff in bag… Those events are all very small and they happen to everyone every day. I am thinking to shoot some scenes that this girl is with other people, both when she is alone and has communication with others. There might be some narrations as well, but I haven’t thought of a good one, maybe something will come out when I start shooting. I want to show the power of the real moment- it may not look that bright and wonderful from outside, but the beauty of it is that it’s real and ordinary. Also I want to create mysterious atmosphere, so I will find different framing and angles to show some parts of the girl but not her face (can be a blurry one). When shooting there will be a mark on her that shows it’s her. In my shooting, there must be direction, performance and staging. My aim is to make it look beautiful, so in that case, I have to consider lighting and mise-en-scene as well. I will try different lighting in different events. I am going to work with my best friend, ask her to be may actress. We share experience and know each other very well. And the girl in the short film is actually an insinuate figure of myself. So when I work with her, I will direct her to act me. Because she knows me and we are close, I think that it will be easier for us to communicate. On the other hand, I’m thinking to look for someone from casting list. It would make me gain some experience of working with someone who’s actually in acting.
