Problems

At our meeting today we came across a few problems with our idea.

• The female actress wouldn't be hard to find as it can easily be someone who looks/is young, so therefore someone in our year, the main problem is the male. We want him to be tall, quite hench and generally look older (bit of stubble etc), and this inevitably causes problems as we don't know many men in late 20s early 30s
  
  
• We really liked the idea of shooting early morning (6am-ish) because it strays from the conventions of night time and we could get really good effects with breath and mist, but this would mean we'd have only approximately 30-45 minutes in which to shoot. For this problem we do have a solution though: we would need to have everything perfectly storyboarded and organised so that we could shoot efficiently.
  
  
• Different weather conditions could also cause problems, not only just rain but for example sunshine and then not (coming through the trees). Although this is a problem everyone doing this project (and anyone ever shooting) faces.
  
  
• The costume for the female is hopefully going to be a white floaty dress - to connote innocence/purity and to make her stand out, and probably bare feet, but as we are shooting in December and early morning our actress would get very very cold. Although this could be minimised if we shot very efficiently (as said above) and if we brought like a big warm dressing gown for her to put on between shots.
  
  
• Our final problem is slightly smaller but we quite like 'Post Blue' by Placebo for our back ground song, except that this was used last year and we didn't realise.
