Hello!
Alright, the time has come. The last three things that have been really inspiring me lately are quite a world away from my last post's imaginings. However, under this category, if I play my cards right during filming, post-production wont be nearly as grueling as the cyberpunk idea. Either way, without further ado, my second option for the vibe.
Coming in at thing number three, we have Studio Ghibli films. Every moment in these pieces enthralls you with a sense of child-like wonder. The studio is notorious for making even the most mundane or unimportant parts of life beautiful. If I could live in one of these movies, I would. I would love to make something that could give others that same feeling, or at least try to.
As for number four, films centering around childhood, or rather, taking on the point of view of a child. Things like this tiktok series, entitled "Growth," or The Florida Project (the theme of this blog). Again, nostalgia is a powerful thing, what can I say. This route could give me a lot of freedom to play with perspective and almost exaggerate my techniques to appeal to that child-like sense of emotion. Every emotion felt in a film like this is a first.

Finally, we've reached thing number five, which is this tiktok. I saw it and was completely transported. I thought it was the cutest thing, and captures the vibe very well. Its comment section was full of references to Wes Anderson, and, admittedly, I haven't seen many of his films. However, from what I do know, I will certainly look deeper into them as he will serve as massive inspiration for this project should I choose to go this route. The use of color and the music in his films holds a story-book magic that I would try to emulate with my work.

With all this said, it's time for me to make a genre decision before I delve into further research. This is gonna be tough, but I'll be back in a few days time with the decision made, full speed ahead.
