initial idea

we have an idea that we are going to have diegetic credits and the story is going to be about a girl who has an accident and damages her hearing after the surgery to fix it she begins to experience strange things. we think that at the begining she could hear the first sentence for the first time in a year and what she hears takes her back to a point where she couldnt hear but this time she hears everything and finds out. when she flashes back to the future she isnt herself she is just watching over her life. And when she goes back to present time she reveals what she knows and nobody understands how she knows it and everyone thinks shes mental because the bad things she reveals other people deny.

1. she comes out of hospital and cant hear for a year
2.a year later she has surgery to fix it
3. she has a black out and she goes back to a time when she couldnt hear but she can hear what people are saying now
4. she finds out that her husband is cheating on her because he is on the phone to his girlfriend and she hears what he is saying and he was taking advantage on the fact she was deaf.
5. throughout the film she has flash backs to what people were saying when she was deaf and finds out that her life when she was deaf was all fake.

This i s our idea for the whole film so we are not going to show much of it in the opening sequence, we also realise that some of the shots and things could be hard to do with the doctor and the hospital it would be hard to construct this and we doubt we would be allowed access so we think we are going to leave what happened a mystery to also make the opening sequence more effective.

aThe opening sequence as she is laying in bed at home she has a flash back where she can hear what is going on and finds out that her husband is cheating on her, this is from her point of view but she is watching herself then she comes back to reality and has a sound overload where there is loads of voice overs and maybe some sounds of the crash and a heartbeat sound which carrys on when all other sounds stop then slowly fades out. Then from her point of view the bandage is being taken off that goes around her face and covers her eyes and ears we will film this from her point of view so the sound will become clearer and the vision will become focused then it is her husband that took it of. we name this the sentence. we think we could film through a bandage at first so that it is clear that we are filming from her point of view and show what she is seeing and hearing.
