Here is a sample of some vignettes I had started working on to varying degrees:

Interviewing a scientist
Or at least someone whose profession means they can talk on a scientific or theoretical level about how we perceive the image we see in the mirror.

Analysing Actions
I initially planned this as a dramatic vignette, shot with a goPro or similar camera. I would get an actor to carry out a series of actions including making a morally questionable decision. I would then pair this with their narration as they justify their actions and grapple with the decision.
Another alternative is to get someone to wear a GoPro and them have them watch back their actions and narrate their actions or to just purely gauge their reaction to their behaviour. Any thoughts or musings they have about their behaviour.

Mirror Experiment
Although my first Idea I never ended up completing my poetic vignette experimenting with patterns created using mirrors. I found that my focus shifted away from this due to it’s lack of people but I believe now that there may be a way the idea can be explored using a model and creating patterns with their face/body.

Skeleton
I was incredibly eager to shoot this particular vignette but the difficulty to find and borrow a replica skeleton dissuaded me. My ideas was to juxtapose narration discussion the beauty of the human ‘soul’ alongside images of the skeleton. I wanted an abrupt clash of the spiritual and physical components of the human being. I wasn’t sure if the narration was going to be a poem I was going to craft myself or a particular quote of some religious scripture. I wasn’t failure with any but I had started researching. Another aspect of this I really want to look at was the eyes socket of the skeleton and the brain cavity. Within the skull is every emotion and sensation we’ve ever felt, all our memories and lusts. The fact its just a hallow space in a skull is a little bit disconcerting.

Old Friends
This was going to be another a drama vignette centred on the reunion of old friends. Both are bitterly disappointed at what the other has become and because they are so hung up on this they aren’t able to appreciate the reunion.

More Booth Interviews:
I also quite eager to continue shooting Booth interviews looking at a wider selection of people. Rather than just getting the white male perspective I want to put the same questions to a number of people from a variety of ethnic backgrounds, ages and socioeconomic situations.
