The Maltings hosted the "Future Shorts Film Festival: Autumn 2014." Charlotte, Al and myself decided to go since it was only £3 and we could find something especially inspiring. Which we did.
"The Swimmer" by Lynne Ramsay was simple in concept, but intricate and complex in aesthetic and technical aspects. The lighting and composition in this film was absolutely gorgeous, most likely a result of shooting in bright weather conditions. What got to me the most was the use of sound from archived material to depict the thoughts of an endurance swimmer.
This has challenged me to think ahead for the sound design for "See You Soon." For example, instead of trying to find a way to show that our main character is a nurse, what if we told our audiences through the sound design? Like as she walks and is in a pensive state of mind we can hear the sounds of babies crying and hospital machine beeping, to depict what her occupation is.
I relayed this thought to Charlotte, since she is our sound mixer in post production. I've challenged her to think ahead.
