How did you decide on your Big Idea?
I decided my Big Idea based off of my previous shorts. I am very fascinated with the concept of conflict and how it is perceived by others. Personally, I have experienced a lot various situations with stressful conflict and have never truly observed the severity of them. Conflict is overlooked and can develop off of almost anything.
How did you decide on a way to show that Big Idea through video?
I felt that to show conflict can run as almost too simple. I wanted to put more meaning and depth into my videos so that rather than just watching, the audience is thinking. I chose a rather serious and dramatic proposal that enveloped a constant and understandable topic. Death. Negative impulse and hysteria.
What video concepts did you decide not to do? Why?
I did not want to drive the idea of relationship conflict into my videos. The most intense and deep form of conflict resides in oneself. This gave me room to work with how easily or hard I could make the meaning of the videos faucet.
Do you feel you effectively talked about your Big Idea with your video? Why or why not?
I feel that I did a decent job with it. The video is straight forward with the meaning and it flows. The only issues may be the fact that if someone watching the video doesn't know me, they may not understand the reason behind such a dramatic representation of conflict.
What was the best part of this process (brainstorming, writing, planning, shooting, editing, etc?) Why was it the best for you?
The best part, for me, was the initial brainstorming. For every video I make, brainstorming the ideas really get my mind flowing and venturing into almost another realm. I like to believe I'm the actor in every short (I kinda am for most of my films) so that I can develop their sense of feelings and emotions throughout the video.
What was the best part of choosing your own Big Idea as opposed to me setting one for you? The worst part?
The best part was the unique input that everyone got to put into their videos. I love to see expression through other peoples' minds and that honestly what makes this project so attractive to me. The only bad thing I find with this project is the fact that we are allowed to do whatever we wanted. This is really stressful because, to me, thinking of so many possibilities leads me to leering to far from my initial intent.
Propose one additional Big Idea video idea that you could accomplish by March 14. I want very specific details: what, who, why, how, when, where.
Another video I'd create would defiantly be about brotherly conflict. I would use my two little brothers as my actors and my neighborhood for my setting. I want to show the common and playful relationship between the brothers and how is slowly can diminish over small confliction. The time will be throughout the afternoon. The conflict between the brothers will grow so immense that in the end one will coherently kill the other brother out of a short-lived rage. Not understand what he has did wrong, he will continue on a happy manner for he know he got back at his brother. It will then hit him like a troublesome wave that what he has done was terribly wrong.
