“SWEVEN” is a Middle English that refers to a dream. My film is going to first capture the darkness of the city, then follow with the hope and brightness side of the city – which is mainly initiated by sound (music) and light (yellow light gives a sense of warmness), so to reflect the dynamic changes of my film, tone of the mood board change from black and white (upper part) to black with yellow (bottom part). Picture of dying heartbeat, rainy day, dark coffee, messy bed-sheet, etc. imply a ‘dying city’. On the other hand, a picture of light shines through a door, light bulbs hanging on a strain, light project on a music note sheet, etc. imply peoples’ dream for hope in the city – we struggle hard for a better future. Moreover, the magazine cover which overlapped photography to create different stories for that woman inspired me not to film some fragments of actions or facial expressions to allow people to use their imagination. And the quote “Nothing lasts forever.” is the message I would like to convince at last – Life is always full of dreams, the darkness of the city will not last forever, warmness integrates into life in form of sound and light.

• Consider the contrast: The digital vs. the hand’s movement. What do the hands start to contact?
• Think about what the hands reveal about the city outside
• During production, consider cinematic and framing techniques, and audio awareness covered throughout the course
