Idea Development

When watching my short film as it stands I have found that the dialogue scene appears to jar as it is the only scene with dialogue in it. As a result I have decided to eliminate the dialogue from this scene making my film essentially a modern day silent film.

I intend to do this by filming the two friends clearly talking to each other and then syncing this with text that will appear on the screen. This will add an unusual element to my film whilst making it more cohesive as it will be as though they are still conversing via text even though they are face to face.

I will also add a section at the start of this scene of Lauren walking down corridors etc alone to highlight the fact that her 'pen-friend' is her only friend.

I am also going to slightly change 'text scene 2' to again make my film more cohesive. I will do this by again filming Lauren looking at her phone, as opposed to the phone screen, and then adding the texts over the footage. This means I have now filmed Lauren going to her locker then looking at her phone, where the texts appear on screen, before zooming in to a close-up of her face as she considers whether or not to meet Chloe.
