Installation Film Equipment List

Installation Film Equipment List : 

1 x Hand Camera
1 x Bike
1 x Skateboard
1 x Microphone

I wanted my film to be a simple and to the point as possible. To do this im trying to limit the ammount of things needed to make my film, for example no filter, no sound. Much in the style of Sam Taylor-Wood's - A Little Death.

Location's
Due to the nature of the film and its overall point I have only devised a rough list of broader locations in which I think will benefit the film. For example instead of choosing select locations e.g Southampton High Street, I have gotten on my chosen mode of transport and just gone along a rough track as if i had a specific work or social destination. I, quite frankly, mixed it up a little and took routes i perhaps other wise wouldnt have. I think this is to the benefit of the film as it shows that if you choose to use a more fast and loose mode of transport you can pick your own route. Something i think alot of us would like to do from time to time.

Themes

I pondered several different themes, including Life, Death, Dreams, Love and of course Environment. I think the reason i chose to go ahead with environment because not only is it a hot topic of our generation and will be for decades to come, it is a hot topic among very few to whom can actually make a difference.
Too many young people these days are fully aware of the implications of global warming yet seem to have absolutely no care for it at all. Too many people are overly involved in the indulgences in life, Love and Dreams etc. I didn't particularly want to indulge the notion that the individual is more important than the collective.
My hope for this film is to open the eyes of perhaps one extra person, id be happy with one. Because that would mean one more person that realizes they need to take some responsibility for the issues at hand and not just wash their hands of it as it "might not effect them".
