Art Movie Brainstorming

Art Movie Brainstorming

Battleship Potemkin

My favorite part of Battleship Potemkin is at the end wear the carriage is falling down the steps but then looks like someone stabbing the exact spot where the baby is but it never shows the baby being stabbed.

 

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid

My favorite part of Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid is when the guy is looking at a list of names while being followed by someone else. It feels like that is a completely different story line; it’s quite intriguing.

Metropolis

My favorite part of Metropolis was the music. Because there was no dialogue to move the story along, I found that giving the film music gave it a bit more emotion and feeling while still maintaining the qualities of an art film.

 

Brainstorming

Battleship Potemkin

I would like to incorporate the baby carriage. It seems like very suspenseful footage that could be interesting in a storyline

Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid

I want to use the man checking the list of names as well as him getting on the train.

Metropolis

I want to use the part with the man reaching out and the thermometer rising. These pieces of footage seem like they could move a story along nicely.

 Loose story line

Idea #1:

·         story of a relationship

·         find secondary footage of a woman in order for this to work

·         a man and woman separated for a long time but are anticipating the day they will meet again

Idea #2:

·         show the past life of a man

·         have a reunion between family members

·         a family being separated in the past

·         let others interpret if they actually meet or not
