Planning For Our Shoot

Because our project is based around the idea of the left and right side of the brain, we felt it was necessary to research more into the actual ins and outs of the two sides and try to understand which sides produce which individual thoughts, emotions and behaviour. We came across an article on the internet which gave a brief list of things that are typically attributes to each side. We found that the right side of the brain is a lot more creative. It's what's responsible for our imagination, how we respond to music and how we perceive artistic awareness, however, the left side is the opposite to these things. The left side is responsible for your analytic thinking, it's the side that we use when we try to break down puzzles and problems. It's also the side we use for maths, science, logic and language. These are all very helpful traits to know as we can now dissect the brain more in depth and really pick out the genre of clips we will be using in our two different videos. Our plan is to have one side show all of the things and places around use that can stimulate creative thoughts and show a network of thoughts intertwining and linking with one another. On the other side we plan to show how when the left side brain takes charge, we all of a sudden see things in a different way. We start picking away at things strategically instead of diving in head first which is what a lot of people tend to do when thinking creatively. About three quarters of the way through the video we wanted to have the two brains go into 'meltdown mode' and by this we mean that we want to show how the two sides can think very well independently but without each other, the brain cannot cope, it needs both sides to function to its full capability. We plan to do this by turning the videos into what a computer screen would lookalike as if it was rebooting, thus symbolising the brain being unable to cope and trying to start again. This is where we plan to loop the video, making it seem as though the two sides have 'reboot' themselves and everything is now fine again when in reality it just goes back to the beginning, ready for another 'meltdown'.
