Our idea was to tell the story of a girl who overcomes despair after losing her best friend.
The story was to be told through a voice over of each possession which she had been given/relates to her best friend who has died recently. Each voice over would have a different voice as it is the objects themselves telling the story of the two best friends.
The first few shots would be in a small dark bedroom with low key lighting. There may be a gap in the curtains, allowing a bit of sunlight in to show, there is a glimpse of hope within the girl's. The reason why we chose a low lit room and that it should be small is to represent the girl's present condition.
The girl's parents can be heard having a conversation from downstairs, talking about their daughter and how she hasn't come out of her room in days as well as their worry about how she is coping with the situation.

The girl would be lying on the floor with objects scattered across the floor and a mobile in her hand. This would be shown in a close up of her face and then slowly zoom out into a mid shot shot from the floor of her lying down trying to call someone, with a name presumably her friends name on the screen. The girl would then slide the phone under bed and she gets up and tries to pick up the phone.
Instead she places her hand on an object which then tells it's story to the audience. The objects we are thinking of using are a necklace, teddy bear, journal, digital camera and music box. Each object has a significance to the young girl's past with her friend. Short flashes would playback when she is holding the possession and thinking back to that particular time. Throughout flashes the young girl's moods are constantly changing as she is confronting her own feelings.

The last object which she looks at would be the journal, reading from it she is saddened and in frustration ends up which throwing the journal. The journal lands open with a note falling out from her best friend.
The note encourages the friend and tells her to carry on with life, through the note there is a sense of reconciliation.
This could be highlighted by a ray of light from the window hitting the girl to signify the hope the young girl has now found, with her opening the window and finally leaving the room.

This is our initial inspiration for our short film. Wongfu Productions have used a collection of objects and a voice over to tell the story of the young girl we may do something similar in our own short film.
