Directions Unit: 1 Minute Sound Film - The Ideas

As part of our unit we have to create a 1 minute film consisting of just sounds to accompany one of a selection of images. Below is the image I chose:

Why I chose this image:

- The snow gives it an ambient vibe.
- It looks almost remote, an untouched area, fitting in with my chosen theme of loneliness.
- A nice open, wide shot: allowing me to 'explore' the area.

What I am thinking of right now (sounds-wise):

- Tattoo Parlour on the left: have the sounds of the tattoo machines fade in then reveal the source (the parlour) a few seconds later or even much later on.
- Chatting in the restaurant on the right.
- Footsteps on the snow, the crunch.
- Traffic lights: a delicate sound of the lights changing, a small ticking.
- Car driving in centre: snow crunching underneath. The engine rumbling.
- The long vehicle in the background: doors slamming and/or engine running, idle.
