Scene 1 & 2 ~ Director's Commentary.

SCENES!

Scene 1:

Scene 1 was with the lyrics of ‘A drop in the ocean, a change in the weather’. This scene, as being the first one took a little while. First there is a drop falling from the sky and hits the water and makes an effect on the water. Then rains starts to fall at a rapid pace and then it stops and the sky becomes black and lighting blots come from the sky, therefore symbolizing the changing of the weather. The part where the drop hits the ocean, took a little while longer than the rest of this scene. This is due to the fact that we had the make the drop look like it disappeared into the water, to create the real life affect of the drop hitting the ocean. The problems we had with this scene was the fact that we had problems with the deleting of the scene and then we had to recreate this one scene more than 3 times.

Scene 2:

Scene 2 was a fun and enjoyable scene, because we got to make the hands look like they were praying and then a heart came onto the screen. The lyrics to this scene were ‘I was praying that you and me might end up together’. We wanted to make this scene look different to the words, but in our own creative way. The hands were really cool, because we had to trace them and then make them move from the outside of the shot, into the shot and then move from the bottom right hand corner and move really fast out of the shot to the left top hand corner. Then two halves of a heart move together and make a whole heart. Therefore creating the ‘you and me might end up together’. This image really creates this because it is trying to show that the two halves of the heart are from two different people and that they were hoping that they could end up together.
