Matthew Leigh G324 Advanced Portfolio

Here, I will list the limitations of my current situation, and my solution to each in turn.

1. Traveling severely affects my health - I will create a film that can be set in and around my own house.

2. I have limited access to other people - I will only use a single character in my film, to be played by myself.

3. I am limited in my equipment and software, meaning if I try to use too many special effects, it will most likely look cheap and amateurish - I will rely mostly on creative camerawork rather than special effects, and try to erase the need for much hi-end equipment by using the tools that I do have available to their fullest.

4. Sound quality will be poor, since I have no mics - I will replace the audio track with music created by me especially for the film, and also concentrate on physical comedy which does not need dialogue or diegetic sound. The music I create will be tailored especially to fit what is happening on screen, partly inspired by silent movies. I have recording equipment for my piano.
