The first part of film gives a introduction of my interviewee, and then it raises a problem he met, at last , it shows how he deals with the problem.

The voiceover narration explained the process of a designer’s routine of his work as he is telling his story to audience.
- What role will the ‘found footage’ play in your portrait?
The found footage gave reinforcement and explanation of my portrait, it fave audience better understanding visually, for example, many people know less about Dali, so when they see the found footage of Dali, they will know what kind of person he is. It is better than just introducing him in words.
- Does your portrait have a dramatic turning point?
Yes, it is when my interviewee has no idea and inspiration about his work.
- When does this turning point in your portrait and why?
At middle . Because the first part of the portrait is quite peaceful, so I want to make a big contract comparing the it in order to get audience’s attention.

I use different kind of sound track to create contract, and I also minimize the clips to keep each part equally in order to avoid overlong clips, and keep the video in the right rhythm.
