Yo,

So, we are now leading up to the final shoots for this studio.

I’ve decided to lay out a second plan of action post as my idea has grown and taken on new elements since the first one.

Research question: To explore moments when diegetic music is used in film, examining how these moments further character development.

Synopsis: We are introduced to a woman who’s life seems cold and lonely. She expresses her emotions and recalls memories through the playing of the piano.

Light: as discussed in the first plan, the light will be dark, blue and cold, almost moonlight or dawn. Flashbacks will be vivid colours, mostly green, red and yellow.

Motifs: Blue objects will be used as a motif. In flashbacks nature will be used as a motif.

Angles: Will be the same as described previously, with added portrait through window scene.

Equipment: 5dD mark 11 with adjustable lens and 50 mm lens, tripod, sound recorder (zoom) and LED lights.

Actor: Shanti Lane, actor and musician.

Listen to her music here. 

Here are some shots of Shanti that I have drawn inspiration from for her role in this piece.
