Intro:
After a long week of research and planning, I had finally had all my CCR question responses mapped out and ready to go. Naturally, the next step is how I would be filming it. What would I be doing, where would I be, etc. In todays blog post, I will be discussing possible productions for my CCR filming. This would be simple since my instructor had taught us a lesson on what to do and what not to do. She also told us what had become repetitive and common mistakes to avoid.
Plan:
What would suit my style? It certainly would not be something like a podcast, because I do not have that type of personality. After bouncing around some ideas in my head, it finally hit me. The perfect idea for me would be one that my teacher mentioned in class: the directors cut. Traditionally, the directors cut is a version of a piece that the creator has the opportunity to directly explain their choices. This is effective in conveying exactly what the creator wanted the audience to know, and usually features scenes not seen in the actual film. These are usually released after the film it covers, which would make it perfect for my film project which would already be out.
Idea:
I decided that I will most definitely be doing 2 directors cut style videos to answer the CCR questions. I would answer the first 2 in the first video, and the remaining in the next. Your probably wondering: "What makes this not boring?" Instead of the standard talking into the camera style video that we were told to avoid, I would use the new editing and shooting techniques I developed to shoot a visually engaging CCR response. It would include the car on the same road as my actual film opening, giving me a bridge to connect it back to my film opening with. However, I would not be acting as Adam, the main character, and would be taking on the persona of an actual director.
