Project Proposal

What?:
I want to make a short movie. I’ve never done it but I have had a few friends that have and it seemed pretty awesome I plan to learn a lot from it and maybe keep doing some of the things I learn from it.
Why?:
I want to see how much a message can be changed through subtle or large changes visually in a short scene.
How?:
I will vary things on different scales for each scene while trying to find a visual base that will connect them all. I plan to do five or six scenes that will all vary in one way or another:
1) scene one will be the base scene. Nothing to big and a stationary camera.
2) scene two will show a change in clothing. That characters will be wearing and surrounded by things that will reflect their mood. The camera will be stationary again.
3) scene three will have the camera moving around the scene. The characters will have the same clothing as scene one.
4) scene four will have a location change and the camera will return to being stationary.
5) scene five will be a slide show but of photos from the scene and done to the audio from it.
6) scene six will have the same stationary camera but be put to sock puppets. I’m still not too sure if I want to do this but we’ll see how much time I have.
The script will be ambiguous so the mood will have a chance to change between scenes and allow there to be hopefully variation in the message.
