Another shot from 'Anxious Me' the lack
of focus and dark background sets the cold and mysterious tone for my film.

Studio Day 3 Evaluation:
This week I created some very strong ideas, most notably with my idea entitled 'My Bad Side/Anxious Me'. This idea was created by myself, illustrating my anxieties by using
metaphor. The metaphor involved was a friend who would be barely visible
in shot, as she is a figment of my mind only. The purpose she serves
within the film is that of a parallel of myself and the representative
of my anxiety. Within the film the shots change from myself to my
'anxious me' as she mirrors my actions. I largely try to ignore her as
she mimics my moves and I cannot get rid of her. Another way she is used
as a metaphor is due to my idea that anxiety is a stalker, and follows
you everywhere. I filmed everything myself with a Canon 550D and
recorded with my Olympus digital recorder to get my sound and atmos. I
am enjoying the process further, and am reluctant to start on a final
piece as I have another strong idea brewing. I believe instead of my
previously planned 3 designated weeks for my final piece, I will extend
my idea generation period so I can continue working and creating more
compelling ideas. Not to be mistaken however, I am happy with this idea
but do not wish to simply settle.
