Production Strategy

Since I got the idea to use the strategy of filming spaces that make one feel enclosed I ‘m going to try and find some playgrounds within my drift area that have tube slides. Also I know I saw a tunnel on one of my drifts so I plan on going there to have some fun with this drift strategy. This site with the tunnel is highly promising because there is a lot that I can do with it. It’s absolutely beautiful and is long, dark and enclosed and will make some interesting shots when the sun is out. Maybe I can play with whole “light at the end of the tunnel” phrase. I plan on limiting my image capturing strategies to this motif so it might take a while to find a lot of different footage of enclosed spaces and a variety of playgrounds. However I think it will be worth it for the video sequence I’m already imagining putting together.

As for the sounds, it’s going to be difficult to strategize how I will limit my capturing strategies since I pretty much walked the city to find them. If I’m lucky however and come across a lot of good sounds to record then my strategy will be to record sounds that will amplify the enclosed footage. Also I might try to collect some abstract sounds so I can play around and decide what I like best with my footage.
