I’ve decided to pivot from my original idea of filming a trail near my house in my hometown and creating a narrative about trail cleanups. I’ve changed my idea to highlight local flora and the stillness and tranquility of Maine. The Main idea is to try and highlight the missed areas of our wildlife and how slowing down and taking time to look at the world around us. The attached footage is a very rough edit with no music or sound. The idea is to add more b-roll footage and some nighttime footage if I can get a good shot. This cut of the footage aims to show the basic concept that I’m getting after with this project. The basic flow of the video is to start with an overview shot of some of the filming locations and then to pan into using the macro lens app to get in close with the flora. The next steps for the final draft are to add a voice over, some free music and change the order of clips if needed or trim them.
