Week 33

Short Drama: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JV1_TXm0XHs

To begin our planning for a drama, it was important for us to analyse another drama that covers a similar theme.

'About a Girl' is in a way documentary styled. The story follows a girl talking about her goal to be a successful and famous singer, as well as her life situations. The editing is a tracking shot of the unnamed girl while the editing cuts away to show these life events take place as she describes them. Our drama will be very similar as ours is also character driven, so watching this drama has given us a guideline of how we could go about producing our own solo character driven film.

Overall I think this style of film works well as it is a different approach to your typical narrative. Instead it focuses on a characters perspective of the film. It is a good style of film if you want to focus more on the character which is what we would like to do for our own drama, as our own drama will be focusing on how a mentally ill person sees the story.
