Group Meeting 19/11/2012

Before our tutorial with Annie, we discussed the script and the ideas I had come up with for the piece. Everyone still loves the idea of the contrasting views throughout the film. It represents Lola being 'black and white' - Everything is either really good or really bad. For example, when she sees the park at the end of the film, it is full of vivid colours and bustling with people; however, when she sees the boys, they are scary and animal like.
  A great idea Jacob had to evolve the idea of the boys, was to not have them even speaking when it's her POV, but instead making animalistic noises, such as that of a hyena. This will then create a largely sinister juxtaposition between what she sees and reality. Another idea that Jacob had was that instead of seeing the park bright and vivid, we could just display an extreme close-up of Lola's eyes. They would widen as she sees it, showing her happiness and include sound over this image of a busy environment. I think that this would work incredibly well as it would demonstrate just how different her mind is to the real world when we see her sat on a swing alone, in an isolated park.
  I showed the group a copy of the script so far (at the 3 page stage), in order to gain some feedback on what they felt worked and what they thought could be improved upon. Here is a copy of the annotated script once I had met with the group:
