16th day report: the other writing
report of November 13, 2006
Today we wrote the arabic and english version of the Love subject thet we developed yesterday.
The subject, with some notes marked in italic in order to give you some explanations, is linked with today's report.
After that we talked about the things we still have to do from the day we leave up to march.
Before we leave we have to write all the subjects we still have to work on.
About the timetable we are gonna talk tomorrow: we agreed a group meeting at 4 o'clock.
After that Sara gave them the right coordinates in order that they can export and compress in the right way each movie. In the morning and first afteernoon the only guys in the laboratory were Khaled and Abdulla.
When Ahmad, Hazem and Mohamed Gaze came we talked about the subject The Others (also related with love subject) .
The Others will be an interview of a man and a woman, a palestinian and an israelian, that fell in love 10 years ago and fought with their families and with the society in order to coronate their dream: to get married and became a family.
In the interview the idea is to begin with a dream she had when she was young: an arabic person coming on a white horse to pick her up and marry her.
Then she talks about how they met in Tel Aviv and she decided to follow him in Qatanna (Palestine) and become Muslim. Only in this way they could get married.
The reaction of theirs families and their societies.
Their marriage and their present happy life, with a newborn son.
We discussed about the language of our interview, what is important to show, to say, and in which way. We are thinking to shoot with two cameras on trypod, in order to give the idea of an happy family, how they are now.
For tomorrow this subject will be developed and the treatment written.
At the end we started to put ideas for the Religion subject.
Yesterday an idea was already present, but at the end they discovered that the man they thought about was not as they had imagined him.
So we still have to think and develope this subject!
And, at the end, surprise!!!
Mariam, the war movie, is now finished!!!.
We exported and compressed it.
Inshallah it will be sended for this evening!!

Hey guys, zalabtv-barcelona is back! and I could easily watch your dream of war... I liked it very much and Miriam (is that her name?) is very intense. However, I have some suggestion for you (as ever...) , maybe to make it a bit more "visionary/dreamy" and less "tv": the panoramic views of the landscape with Miriam on the right are very very very nice; on the other hand, despite the strong carachter, an interview will always look like...an interview! that is, a higly standardized format. All those silent pauses on the landscape seems to say that you want to convey a wider feeling than just "listening to her". While watching I felt this kind of contrast, and I thought that using just Miriam's voice over the slow pans on the dry landscape and the wall might strenghten emotionally your bit. And maybe you could discover her as a silent observer just at the end of the clip. This is a possible way for making an interview something more than just an interview, and to unleash the visonary power of simple words left alone on a empty landscape.
Just suggestions, but think on it and make tests!
keep in touch

Hey, guys, I didn't receive the film!
Can you send me it?
