Problems

We had a rethink of the “No Light, No Light” idea and we have decided that the concept is too complicated; we have decided that the idea of the protagonist cheating is very complex when combined with the wedding idea. So we need to have a rethink, possible ideas are that we scrap the wedding idea (which would be good as it would save us a lot of hassle with making the wedding scene and the hassle with set dressing and costume and venues).  However the alternative is to cut the flashbacks with the person she has cheated with. This was Anna’s thought that we don’t want to become as complicated as it did with Meet Me in the Dark and the plotline became confused. I think the best way to go about this is to cut the idea of a wedding, but that the Protagonist and her partner are engaged, so the idea of a white wedding dress would still work, and in one of the flashbacks it could be the proposal scene. Anna also felt that she didn’t like the idea of showing the person that the protagonist was cheating on with. She mainly felt like this because of her aversion to acting and I think that without the flashbacks the film could work, however unless there was dialogue used (which I have an aversion too) the film wouldn’t work.  So this is a juggle and something we need to sit down and talk about on Friday’s expressive arts lesson.
