In our filmmaking and editing, we explored ways of creating visual representations of what was developing inside our protagonist’s head. This is integral to the narrative – as he is under such pressure from the stressful thoughts about his past criminal record spoiling his chances of any real future – as well as being an artistic experimentation that attracted us as it promised to lift our filmmaking out of the run of the predictable into more filmic work.
To suggest his inner maelstrom, we took an image of the protagonist into Photoshop and cut the space inside the outline of his head, filling it with the sequence of him committing the crime which forced him into community service.
Excellent creative ideas matched by interesting exploration of techniques to bring them to life.
