Experimental Film - Idea

"What's Wrong?"  -  Script
  • People who are distracted by meaningless things from what is really important in society to me
  • People who are put into categories in society and how their futures are set in stone
  • Pollution, Technology, Beauty Standards, Death

Hands painted brightly in certain ways in which they're suffering

  1. Pollution - Black (like tar and death)
  2. Technology - Blue (electronic)
  3. Beauty Standards - Pink (woman standing still with train-tracks outlining a smaller one shot by shot - put a chocolate in mouth and face fill up with pink)
  4. Death - No Paint (nothingness of death - all different colours in tank reversed to symbolise the removal of identity and to cleanse the world and society)

Costume of Woman:

When polluted and dead: long white dress with black streaming from her eyes and hands are all black
When objectified: glamorous makeup and clothing with pink on one hand and blue on the other. Train tracks mark a smaller, more 'perfect' body
When obsessed: dressed in typical clothing of a young person 


Intro: All One Shot
Analysis (Why?) - This scene includes foreshadowing into the future and of what happens to the people who have influences by their parents and how it can effect the world in time. The white background represents the purity of children when they are born and the glass case filled with water represents children's future and how they are kept in a boxlike manner. The water represents the children themselves and how their world and future are vast and ever-changing, however they could be manipulated and a deep depression of their future could form. From this, as the droplet of black paint is dropped into the water, the audience is shown the darkness of the world and peers that pollutes their future, hence the older woman crying and black paint covering her hands and eyes.

  2. -Zoom towards the glass case and add a black droplet of paint (slow motion) 
  3. -Flash shot the polluted women zooming in on her while the black is spreading

Analysis (Why?)
