Visual Metaphor
Tina Lin & Deziree Harmon
Concept | Storyline:
1). We will be using the No Fear Shakespeare modern translation of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 98. Deziree will read the audio because we want the narrator to be female and speak with the proper emotion.
2). The sonnet which is written to a lover describes the beauty of spring and the youthful excitement and pleasure that comes with it. However, the narrator has a melacnholic tone as they are unable to enjoy the beautiful spring because their lover is away.
3). We are focusing on conveying a juxtaposition between the beauty and excitement of spring and the loneliness that the narrator feels.
4). The film should be very warm and comfortable. It should move slowly and have a hint of deep longing. We definitely want the aesthetics of nature in spring time to be heavily present.
Execution Plan:
1). We will be using and iPhone to record both audio and video.
2). Tina will shoot in a place with tall grass and beautiful natural scenery. She will film during a sunny day.
3). The potential challenges which may occur include the weather and light fitting the aesthetic that we want. Also, filming and editing footage from a distance may be difficult.
4). We can collaborate by regularly checking in and scheduling periodic zoom calls to show and discuss the progress we makeStoryboard Draft
