film Statement of intent – new idea

3 words: A lockdown overview

Sentence: A short Film detailing the life during lockdown through the eyes of a young adult with links to looking back on childhood memories.

Paragraph: A lockdown overview showing my personal thoughts, with links to how memories have faded with time and as we’ve grown we’ve left behind memories that we wish we could go back to. This creates a sentimental link as we realise that time is something that we as humans try to constantly work against but due to lockdown we were stuck for months without being able to do much which made us realise that as teenagers we don’t have many childhood years left and that we will soon grow up into what can become a mundane world.

For my new idea I want the main focus to be around lockdown (the struggles and my personal outlook) and how this whole pandemic has made us look back on our memories. I think that 2020 was a hard year for many of us and I wanted to include my audio recordings of my life during lockdown and my thoughts on how, like for many of us lockdown made us look differently at how we view everyday things. My main aim is to create a sentimental feeling throughout the piece and make people look back on lockdown and how difficult and scary it was as the pandemic took over our lives. I hope to create a film that is vivid with emotions and helps the audience to see lockdown through a teenager’s life. Although I did not experience that worst that the pandemic has brought on to people I hope to allow the audience to be able to relate to my piece and allow them to see how much time has passed since the beginning.
