I was able to contact my Brother via the telephone to run him over all the developments in my idea/plan for this project as last I spoke to him he believed it was music video I was making.
I proposed to him the new theme idea of having us work together to base it upon an aspect of our childhood or family. He agreed that this would actually be a really interesting approach to take as like I had realised we can together create something strong in concept and therefore atmosphere because we have both had a very similar upbringing.
We then began discussing the music and I said that once I had done some research and narrowed the topic down to a specific subject I would let him know so he can begin thinking about ways to represent this in music. His musical style is experimental, electronic and instrumental only and we decided he should stick to this usual style and not be literal in any sense when it comes to the theme. Its all about him interpreting the theme through his music and me interpreting it through the visuals so that when they come together we can express together what we both feel and share that experience with the viewers.
We lastly made a little plan between us of how this works and I feel like if I set myself on a theme after some research as soon as possible I can then tell him about this allowing him time to think about it. Then hopefully by the end of this term (christmas) he will be able to show me a mock up or rough cut of his music track so that by the time I start shooting in the following term I will know what the visuals need to fit too and how I can achieve this.
I am very happy that my brother is on board with this new plan and I am excited to begin working on it.
