Plot Brainstorm
As I brainstorm setting ideas, multiple things are running through my mind. I know I want to film outdoors. But do I want to shoot at the beach or at a park? The beach is more open and crowded so it would be a dilemma to take quality footage. A park with nature trails would have a variety of areas to record at. Additionally, it's more secluded and easier to take individual videos. I chose Markham park because it's a beautiful scenery with several trails for filming.
The film will begin with several shots of trees, flowers, plants, and possibly wildlife. This is when my credits will appear.
The protagonist will be an environmentalist. She'll be wandering through the nature trails inspecting and journaling her thoughts and observations. As she explores deeper, she discovers tons of litter and other objects not meant to be there.
Towards the end, the noise of trees being chopped down is heard in the distance. This clearly can't be filmed, but I think with the sound of trees falling or a loud bulldozer, as well as a sorrowful facial expression from the protagonist, the situation could be understood.
The title will then appear, after the final facial expression. My intention is to create curiosity regarding what the main character will do next. How she will conquer her goals and hopes for the future.
Additional details will be elaborated upon in my next blog!
