The upcoming task of Me, Myself and I is to create a 3 minute moving image piece, centred around my life. The piece can be entirely experimental, and the aim is to show something about your life through a series of shots. The shots can make up a narrative, or can simply show things in your life that you fear, love, value etc. We will be working in teams of 3 on the project; sound op, camera op, and director (myself). We are being graded on working within a team and working within our areas, so it is of importance that we take each role on each others project seriously, as we will be making our projects in a three-way cycle.
The personal concept for my project is to show my life as it would be on my ideal day. As I no longer have much spare time on my hands from balancing Uni and my part time job, I would like to show people how I would ideally spend a day off. From waking up in the morning to going to bed at night. I think this is a fantastic way to sum up my personality and capture the essence of my life, interests and passions.
I will do this in a linear style, from morning to night. First capturing the morning light rising with some landscape cinematography, based at some of the more photogenic locations of my surrounding area. Then moving onto the morning and midday activies which will be myself at the driving range, then meeting up with friends to go skateboarding. I will end like I started with some cinematography, with sophisticated shots showing the going down of the sun.
The initial idea is not set in stone, I may have room within the content to include another form of hobby such as football which I could easily film a small sequence of with a voiceover. Another idea I has which is connected to the soundtrack which I will move on to talk about in a moment, is to include myself as an orchestra conductor. With the right soundtrack I could show myself in a visionary light, being the director of my own passions. I would do this by filming myself possibly in the studio against a set, in a tuxedo or suit. This is again just an inspiration which came from a soundtrack option.
The soundtrack I will be using within my project will most likely be a royalty free piece of music I will buy the rights to use, as a student. The network audio-network has an extensive range of songs from many genres and musical categories. I believe the soundtrack to be an extremely important aspect of any moving image piece, as it really sets the mood and contributes immensely to what you see on screen.
At present I have composed a list of possible pieces of music I will look to buy from audio network, so that I do not forget them.
