The second part of the Digital Film brief is to create two 2-minute long videos in response to Poems (One chosen, one given at random).
Our group consists of myself, Siobhan, Rhys and Tom, all taking on different roles. I am focusing on the storyboarding and concept art part - though we all are involved with each aspect of the project in some way, as help with ideas etc. The poem we were given was 'Define Me?' by Zenam Bi and mainly focuses on the concept of being labelled and stereotyped.
We were drawn to the word 'Puppet' in this poem, and researched a little into videos for movement etc. A more detailed/ organised record of our ideas can be found HERE - (By Siobhan - taking on the 'producer' role).
Siobhan found this video which I really like. The movements I think we are trying to achieve for our 'Character' in our concept, will have this 'controlled' feel, but perhaps less mechanical. It gives a slightly dreamy feel - yet shows the lack of choice in movement through the wires.
Our concept involves a woman being controlled like a puppet - as she is 'expected' to act/be a certain way - a certain stereotype. I did a rough concept of this sequence, as we intend for it to be in a light/white space. Things such as amount of ribbon and the look of the girl will probably change through development - for example the girl at the moment has no real 'defining' features (We are considering making her a 'stereotype' e.g a goth or nerd)
