Last week me and my professor had discussed my experimental film , she was very happy, and inspired me , guided me how to put my abstract idea into visual script , I think this is a very important for a director.
At the following weekend when I went out , there are several places which can be used in the film .
My theme is lattice , all visual sensation and what I want to present to the audience is a lattice, TV is the lattice, the road block and frame, so this experimental short films just wanted to bring you a sense of infinite .
I finally wrote the script in six small respectively parts, which are ZAK , BI-CYCLE, TV VERTIGO, FUNERAL, HEAVEN I AM IN HEAVEN, LATTICE.
I also draw the storyboard, and it really could see what is gona represent at my film, there are some events I want to say: A jazz party, it sounds thrill me and people are gathering around ,dancing together; a sad man sits on the toilet and thinks of his childhood; an old lady’s funeral and people are crying for that…..
The object is the key when the different scenes have some connection and transfer to each other flexible. I want to use the movement of camera, maybe use the trailer and arms, which I could pull out or push in, facing to the direct emotion.
Music I pitch are mostly from jazz, and I want to hire a jazz band to help me holding the scene when people in the big house.
I watch some resource from the internet, including the movie ‘VERTIGO’. Seeing the masterpiece of other directors and students could help me to know the sense of “experimental”, it’s hard to define so that is no rule when you filming the experimental film.
I hope I could do my best to represent my first experimental movie.
