My Specification: Love

STORY: What is your love story?
Describe in:

  • 3 words – Human and Angel
  • A sentence – The emotions of a guardian angel protecting its designated human on earth
  • A paragraph – Showing the love between a guardian angel and its ‘person’. The feelings of protection, hurt, love, empathy of watching over someobody’s life – following the persons more bleak life, contrasted to a magical angelic scene.

Angel look inspired by euphoria’s character Jules, i would like to mimic the makeup and use the same purple hued lighting – the style from the show is referencing juliet at the ball in the 1996 remake of ‘Romeo and Juliet’

Character on earth just wears normal clothing and capture just mundane everyday scenarios in black and white with low contrast and slightly overexposed

Edit – try to capture a series of one nightmarish moment, that would call for an angel to be needed

NARRATIVE: How will you tell your story?

  • Story would be shown through 2 contrasting scenes
  • One focuses on a guardian angel in a purple/blue smooth looking scene, with elegant clothing and glossy soft makeup – mostly close ups with contrasting of showing emotion. Perhaps have a body of water with reflection shots, but also use as the means for the angel to watch over.
  • Second narrative would show the day to day ups and downs of life, through aerial view of events, emotions, places the character experiences. Have pretty bleak scenes in black and white. End with a happier scene showing character glance at a new love interest, have higher contrast/bolder coloured scene – would be cutting between Angel and human throughout
  • Edit^ – second narrative is going to be a sequence of pictures progressing through one nightmare-ish moment that would call for an angel to be needed. Dark black and white images continously but presented cutting to and from the angel scene

AUDIENCE: Who is it for?

Audience would be younger, millennial’s who perhaps are more spiritually connected and have hope through what could be watching over us. Could be religious or follow a culture that believe in spirituality and heavenly figures.

On first page use definition of guardian angel as a small glimpse to give more of an idea to the audience.

During book switch between full page and one image for angel, and multiple or reduced size for character.
