Developing my concept into a short film.
According to Wikipedia, the definition of a short film is a film that is anything that is not long enough to be defined as a full length film. The films we are making in class are considered short films and Mr Andrews said that they need to be about 4-6 minutes. I think my film can easily make it in the time frame, the only problems for me is the film going overtime! Below is a timeline of how long everything should go for.
Intro: 30-45 secs [Jade finds the photo album]
1st memory: 45 secs - 1 minute [Jade is rollerblading with Aimee]
2nd memory: 30-35 secs [Beach]
3rd memory: 45-60 secs [Jade scrunches up invitation]
4th memory: 30-60 secs [Jade is at party]
Kitchen scene: 30-45 secs [Jade takes the medication]
+ transitional scenes between the memories: around 30 seconds [Jade showing emotion and turning the page]
Altogether, I'm looking at a film between 240-335 seconds. In other words, 4-6 minutes.
Including the credits, the film will probably go for a maximum time of 7 minutes.
