Group Meeting - Split Screen idea...

Tuesday 5th November - Had a group meeting to discuss story ideas.
For creating two stories with different tones, I suggested to the group the idea of splitting the screen in half with the 2 stories on either side. If we were to show the audience one before the other separately, they would have already been influenced by the first first which may affect their viewing of the 2nd. Therefore putting them side-by-side eliminates this problem and actually creates a nice visual contrast between the two.

My references/inspiration for this were:

Coca Cola's advert 'Grandpa' - showing the differences in lifestyle of a man and his grandpa when he was his age, this advert helped to make people aware of healthy living: a balanced diet and of being active:

500 Days of Summer 'Reality versus Expectations' scene - Everyone can relate to this type of experience where we imagine how a situation will play out, but it ends up being completely opposite and not how we originally imagined it:

Other notes from meeting:
- Rough version for June for research, Polished version for hand-in in August?
- Would need to be same style/tone
- For the research do different voices for the narration to change the tones of the films
- Slight differences at beginning, then, gradually differences get bigger and bigger until very different at the end
- Look at people's habits
