Another spin off from the previous draft, to try to improve on our skills of filming a first person perspective with a camera.
This was more of testing the monologue sequence. Instead of editing it, I had my friend say it out loud. Everything was in monologue until he says “YES THANK YOU!” This was a test on how a monologue feels together with a first person narrative. As a second try, it was fairly simpler compared to the first draft. The mistakes I found was that I could not use my other hand to set it like I had in the previous take. If I could not use it, I shouldn’t have put it in frame at all. Lesson learnt!
The monologue had given emphasis to the first person perspective narrative. I find that it allows the viewers to jump into the first person POV easily compared to showing actions. The monologue allows viewers to understand what the person is thinking and what he desires. The only thing left is for them to anticipate what the outcome will be.
