Blog 12: Project_2: Beginning of Pre-Production:

Introduction:
We have been discussing various ideas for this Project_2 which is centered around either one person moving through space or two people in a follow/chase scene. From what we have discussed I have sourced some u-tube sporting advertisements. I have an idea of  'a day in the life of a rugby player/hurler.' Here, the frames would focus on the various locations of the player as they move through a regular day. There would be interplay of light and shade reflecting the cycle from morning to night. If one actor lots of scenes could be shot with the person interacting with their location and the props such as breakfast focus on the steaming cup of coffee embraced by the actor as they ponder on the day ahead...working on the computer.....getting gear ready for training..and various...The following entitled: "Be there all he way," sports advert portrays the idea of how a person moves through a location that has an obvious non-verbal identity i.e. sports arena, pitch:


similarily in parts, various clip frame ideas in an "Electric Ireland" advert:


rugby video, some apt frames:


A development on this in terms of the narrative could be a sequence of scenes repeated.
A series of repeated days in the depiction of a 'ground-hog-day' scenario, the actor is 
aware of the scenario,but each day certain things change slightly, which contribute to a 
the e.g. 4th day (last day of film) round where, all these smaller things come together as 
a separate event, something significant, that means
an end to the ground-hog and the beginning of something else, where the viewer is kept
at the edge of their seat as the film concludes.
