Final Project Idea
Final Project
I have decided that I want my final project to reflect the dangers and feelings related to the use of drugs, especially by a teenager. The desired outcome for this film is to resemble a euphoric state, stimulated by drugs; the character is controlled by these small pills who send her off to a sort of dreamland. The main character feels full of energy, light, and grace as she bounces around. The sense and image I'm trying to portray is one of falsified blissfulness, as if the character has been put under a trance by the consumption of drugs. The audience will be introduced to this dreamlike state of mind and slowly the film would ascend into reality where the character is surrounded by a dull and dreary world, resembling her feelings on the inside. Empty pill bottles will be scattered around, along with dark tones of clothes and atmosphere. This drastic comparison is being made promenade in my film to have viewers correctly recognize the effects of drug use.
I am especially excited about the gathering of props and deciding on locations for this project. Props and setting will definitely be the backbone of this film and how I develop the story's narrative. Flowers evoke a peaceful and loving mood, I intend to use this to my advantage when displaying the euphoric scene. The location should have a light hearted atmosphere that contrast well with another location that has more grit and a realistic setting.
The only thing that I am slightly worried about is that the camera I will be using won't give my film's ambience justice. I'm hoping with the right camera and editing software I will be able to show an opening sequence that is similar to the graphics shown in a professional movie. I am also debating between using music or a VoiceOver to carry the message of the opening scene. Although, I have several worries I am secured in my ability to fulfill the duty that this project needs.
