I've been thinking about assignment three continuously since it was assigned and rented a camera this weekend to do some sketch recording. I've got several scenes I've been experimenting with and am centralizing the story around reversing bad experiences with intimacy, depression and phases of self-inflicted withdrawal.
I'd like to delve deep into this one, turning it into almost a repentance, and fiddle a lot more with various concepts of symbolism and allusion.
A few different shots I have planned out:
- someone repeatedly taking pills, showing a daily routine. I want to reverse the footage so that the person is spitting them out, until a sink fills entirely with pills, and I shoot them spilling out onto the floor.
- a woman is sitting on a chair, and a person begins cutting off her clothes with scissors. Her sweater, her blouse, her bra, until she's naked
- a man's hands reaching up around a woman's body, starting at her hips and going up around her stomach. There will be a trail of black, dirty smudges from where he put his hands, using soot or some kind of residue.
- a woman pulling an orange or an apple from her skirt, cutting it up, distributing the slices to faceless people until she has nothing left
- the woman is standing under an umbrella, crying, and lifts up the umbrella to look up under the rain, and the raindrops blend in with the tears to make them indistinguishable
- glass filling with liquid, over and over again being dranken, and filling up again
- blurred shots and in and out blackness, walking up stairs, suddenly in another spot
- woman cleansing herself, water pouring over her, down her face and body
- she's crying, and a man kisses her tear
- she wears cut up clothes all sewed up
- she takes a whole apple/orange and eats it to herself
Haven't experimented with sound yet, have mostly brainstormed about video shots... so that's the next step.
