We found this video very interesting and useful because although it is not in the style of our video but the long shots of the location are the type of long shots that we would like for our flash back scenes.

Old short films by students

This short film made by students at longroad is in the style of a documentary which is what we want to do, the idea is very different but this gives us some ideas on how a successful documentary is made.

Examples of other short films

About A Girl is a documentary style short film in which a young girl talks to the camera directly to the camera. We liked it because it is a realistic portrayal of a person, which is something we want to do.



The Life and Death if a Pumpkin, we found this short film really funny. It is not in the style that we are planning to do but we thought it had some interesting angled shots and some really good ideas.

Ideas

We have looked at some films that use flashbacks to tell the narrative, our favorite films for this style were The Notebook and Atonement, these two very interesting films developed our ideas of mise-en-scene sound and shot types within the flashback: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h69l2Ph3GwA - Atonement
