Maps and journeys - Meeting with hannah 1

Me and hannah meet up to discus the research we had been doing so far  and  come up with an initial idea that we are both interested in doing.

The main ideas that we were very clear on is that we wanted to create some kind of experience that the viewer would become part of.

We want to do this using binaural sound played through head phones, so the viewer is fully immersed in the video and can not only hear it but feel it but using very heavy bass notes that vibrate through the person.

we also want to create some kind of space, that the viewer can sit in and be surrounded by the visuals . This again was to full immerse the viewer and get them to feel a connection and in the end experience some kind of journey because of it.


we then brain stormed a few ideas that could incorporate  the immersive experience we want to create. Here is the ideas that we came up with

• Create a feeling of being lost in a woods, very dark atmospheric cinematography, maybe add fog / a smoke machine into the room. 
• Replicate the feeling of anxiety, make the room feel like its getting smaller and create a paranoia through sound. 
• create an elevater shaft and make it feel like it has broken down creating fear and make the viewer go on an emotional journey. 
• make the viewer feel like they are trapped in a video game  creating some kind of journey for them to go on. ( see mood board post for more research )
• have a wez anderson style to the video, very pretty high production design 
• have a kind of sureal aspect like the might boosh ( see mood board post for more research )
• create a spirtual journey representing what the after life is like, very deap bass sounds to feel through body, create a coffin so they are fully immersed in the experience

We are thinking of going down the route of creating an after death experience but will need to do more reaserch on near death experiences before finalising our idea.
