Idea

As a group, knowing we wanted to explore feminism, we decided to use this opportunity to create a video showing empowerment in the world of women. Our initial idea was to use one girl throughout the video and have her walking through doors that lead to different stages of feminism. She would start in in kitchen and would represent the fist wave of feminism (women’s suffrage) as well as the women of the time, hence why she would be in the kitchen, the stereotype and mostly reality at the time. She would then walk through a door, walk through time, to the seventies introducing the second wave of feminism. This stage would have more colour and saturation implying the good changes that had come, however not fully. And through the last door would come not another stage of fighting for equality but a hypothetical world where women feel free, safe and happy.

Storyboard

Each stage lasting ten seconds would add up to 30 seconds, our aim being to represent how women have fought over the century but showing it in a gentle way. As for audio our initial idea was to change the music for each stage, however, we decided that instead, having three snippets of speeches of women at he time as well as empowering music would be much more emotional and powerful.
