Ideas of the final project:


I believe the most difficult part of this video is figuring out the outline of this movie and document should be easy as long as you know what it is going to be on it. Here comes the elements or parts that in this video: waking up, going class, wandering in campus, lunch, hanging out with friends, studying, working out…etc

First of all, I am pretty sure I want to make a movie no matter it is 30 seconds or 30 minutes. It must be a video because I think this final project may be the only chance to give me the momentum to create a movie. For me, this is not a simple final project of a course but it could be the first attempt of my movie career. I want it to be as perfect as possible.

Secondly, I am still looking for a perfect script. I am trying a lot of different things that could potentially inspire me. It is an interesting experience when you always try to do something different without thinking or doubting. There is no hesitation for trying, just do it. I went to downtown twice these weeks; I tried cooking myself; drinking wine; listening to some music usually not listen; go to oval observing people for a while .etc Then, I give up creating an entire plots or story, instead, I just pick up the camera and go outside filming everthing. Let's see what I will encounter. And the result is not bad. I see different things that I usually not see. And that's where "the missing dog" coms from.

The story is simple metaphor that the missing dog is the happiness in your life. Starting with some bad luck and unhappiness things I get in a normal. I decided to go outside and have a little relaxed walk. And at the oval where I found several beautiful views and my mood turned good again. So easy story, easy meaning of life, be happiness, my friend.

Finally, I want to thank this course and thank this final project. This is a good course and it teaches many things not only the art but also the life.
