No update for quite a while now...
What happened lately to my gratious self? Well, we`ve been assigned new groups for our next project, the 10 minute documentary. Our working title is `Black Ice`, and the process of getting the subject right has been interesting and subject to debate in the group. Originally, being my usual politics geek, I suggested having the use and abuse of the environmental issue by left wing and right wing party, green movements and corporate politics as our main guiding line, but given the complexity of the subject (basically, if you read through the lines....people found this stuff booooooooooring...sheesh, who would have thought?!) and the brevity of our documentary, it would be better to look for a different approach. So, change of plans, and the new (and improved) documentary is:
A tale of scientific fumbling, seasoned with cruel intentions to create one of today’s most sizzling topics, in other words…
A historical perspective on the development and transformations of the notion of the greenhouse effect and its consequences (global warming, climate change). The journey from a scientific curiosity to a hotly debated issue that has found its way into politics and popular culture.
Sounds sexy, I know!
Anyway...
In terms of visuals, besides the interviews and some B Roll footage that we`ll have filmed in a `realistic` manner, we have agreed to have some cut-out animations. Soud treatment will rely heavily on cartoony effects, to match the animated sequences, keeping the `realistic` tone in the adequate shots.
The crew:
Diana Sabau - Director, Researcher, Writer
Hollie Taylor - Producer
Joe Lau - Director of Photography
