When he talked to us, unlike the other groups we had two ideas for him to work with. Ashen delivered his first because it was most likely to get a green light as it was more practicle. My idea was a back-up in case Ashen got shut down. Luckily, Ashen's idea got the green light, but there needed to be changes. Matt said that he loved that our idea was current and relevant to the world today and the style of the piece i.e. black and white works really well. He didn't like the idea of the boy travelling to school and having a mysterious bag because it was too obvious and it felt more like a scene within the film rather than an opening title sequence.
Matt gave us a few ideas:
- Set the scene in a hospital/clinic waiting room to support our theme of overperscription of medication
- Mess around with the order of the scenes and make the character aware of these "De ja voux" moments i.e. the character walks in a room and a few shots later he ends up back in the same place and saying the same lines over again, while being conscious of what happend.
- Distort the picture so it gives the audience the same side effects that taking these drugs have.
We took these ideas on board and chose to discuss the following day what we had come up with in terms of an updated idea.
Matt wanted to hear my idea anyway to see if mine could work without any changes needing to take place. He told me that it was a fantastic idea and he loved the fact that I had the resources available to film i.e. the mansion and the Lamborghini, but he said that it is very difficult to film in a day because we would have to mess around with the lighting inside the house and filming with a car is always fiddly. He told me to hold on to that idea so that "when the stars aline, you can shine" - Matt 04/12/15
