Whilst we were filming some location scenery at Norfolk Park last week, I wanted to experiment with how we could adjust the composition and content of the visuals to create perspective. I liked the idea of taking a small part of the general, larger location and adjusting the camera positioning as well as the focusing. Because our idea is based upon remembering and reflection on memories, some of which are unclear, I positioned the camera at ground level and decided to focus on a view point from lower down as opposed to a more general establishing location shot. I thought about how this could fit more widely within the context of our film, and by how showing just one part of a scene that isn't the most important or dominant, could be representative of a person experiencing memory loss 'not being all there'. I took a video test shot of this, whilst moving the camera to create a feeling of disorientation, and a sense of trying hard to focus on remembering forgotten memories.
