I have decided to research films and short films to find inspiration for our 'dream' sequences in our short film, whilst Josh is researching the 'reality' scenes.
'The Virgin Suicides' is a full length film from 1999. We want to take inspiration from the scene below, which interested our group as it involves a lot of the same sort of shot types we want to include in our 'fantasy' scenes of the girl meandering around the field, with warm, bright colours and high key lighting.
We found the following shots in particular to be very warm and beautiful, which is exactly the mood we want to create with our 'dream' sequences. They need to completely contrast to the drab, dull shots of his everyday life.
What is also interesting about this sequence is how some film is super-imposed on top of other footage, creating a collage of different images; we first have the girl in the field, her sisters, then images of horses, her diary, and the boys reading her diary. We'd like to experiment with this sort of film work whilst editing our film and see what sort of different effects we can achieve - normally in dreams different thoughts and ideas are appearing all the time, which is what this super imposing will reflect.
