Of Visions and Mixtures

The vision in mixtures

For my film opening I'm going to start the film with the narration as a stream of consciousness, the visuals will  mirror  the disjointed thought pattern to add a sense of abstract realism. As the pattern of thought gradually settles, the narration will shift  into a narrative form,. the visuals will be shown more steadily, they will unveil progressively as the film introductions and moves toward a more structured atmosphere.

As to the sound: Besides the voice over narration, I will be using  diegetic-sound  on the stream of consciousness  but for the for the actual narrative, I will use as a non-diegetic sound the sound of classical a septet. I chose the septet because it  belongs to the romantic era of music, it will add warmth and closeness in addition, the current where it developed paid emphasis on their structure and composition, so to chose a structured piece without much severity and unsteady facets, will aid to contain the diverting ideas in a soothing background.

As for the acting: To express the ambiguity of time in the person as well as their enduring essence I will shift my character's age on the visuals. For example for the character of the grandmother, which the narration will describe her using elements that revolves around anciently and decay, she will be portrayed as a  young woman in the visuals and her liveliness will be enhance on the angles shots. In précis, the narrative will represent the time and the visuals will represent the being.
