Innitial thoughts on the Script : Part One - A New Hope

First i would like to thank Jennifer for being an Amazing Porducer, she's incredably organised! <3

also thankyou Director for the script.

I've read the script and these are my initial thoughts for use if thought appropriate.

At the beginning the script gives me the impression that there is a panning shot of the room. we could have one large image that moves from right to left with cuts of close ups of specific objects such as:

 one of those calendars that each page is a different number and you rip off the day before, for example this one can read the 10th,

 then a calendar with hundreds of notes on them, but maybe half of the calendar is blank because he has meticulously planned that he will have nothing after today.

there could be close ups of different time keeping devices, such as pocket watches, wall clocks, wrist watches, grandfather clocks, a metronome, a Newton’s cradle(are we going for an old style timekeeping or something futuristic? Or a mixture of both because that could be interesting as the theme seems to be time, we could mix times up)and all of these are keeping the exact same time. so for the background noise, we could have many many different sound samples from watches and such and then have them playing in sync with each other (I have about 8 pocket watches we could record if we want to record the sounds ourselves, moreover I can bring up my metronome and I've always wanted a Newton’s cradle so I wouldn't mind obtaining one of those)

also after the opening panning shot, I was thinking that as the man is so obsessed with timing and as the director has it in mind that this should be comical, the next shot could be of the man asleep in bed and he is breathing in time with the ticking. (maybe everything he does is to the beat of a second or every two seconds or half second)

Now this is a question to the Director, does the man wake up automatic at 7:30 or does his alarm clock go off at 7:30?

Because if he has his own internal alarm, maybe we could parody this somehow and make the character himself look sort of robotic or clock like. For example a clock hand for a nose (reference Cogsworth from beauty and the beast) or we could imply that he has a clock inside of him, maybe in the centre of his chest or his heart is a clock.

If its his alarm that wakes him, what did you have in mind for the alarm? Because if you want to go down the comic rout, we could have 4 or 5 cuckoo clocks going off in a cartoon fashion or something similar, or a plain alarm clock that everyone can relate with.

We could parody the TV show 24 with the style of editing when he goes about his neurotically timed morning schedule. Maybe during the entire animation we could have a faint watermark like clock which always displays the time it is either in the animation or how long the animation it, maybe a stop watch for the timing the animation or a pocket watch/wall watch for the time of day that it is for the character.

I shall continue this at a more godly hour! good night!

on a side not: After reading the script I though that it sounded depressing instead of a comedy, but I’ll humour the director until he makes me see his vision correctly.

Inspirational pictures of the night :

metropolise is a great film, and if you watch it with the theme of time on your mind,I think its going to be very inspirational!

 Moreover I just got the new extended addition version since they found a tone of the  missing scenes and have managed to save them! I cant wait to watch it! <3
lets use GERMAN EXPRESSIONISM as a influence in our design!

these two are character insperation!
ciao for now!<3
