Why?

Shot Types

Target Audience

Making a short film would be relevant to my portfolio as it will allow me to be more creative and show more abstract and visually better shots that you cant really do in a documentary

I feel with making a short film i will be more connected and interested to the production as it can be something I really enjoy or a topic I can take my own spin on a and make the story be exactly what i want

Topics I'm interested in

True Stories

Science Fiction

Success story

Colours

Lighting

I want the shot types in the film to connect in someway, either with symmetry/match shots or similar lens and angle

Metalic

Brutalism
