My film is about a boy mourning the death of his girlfriend, holding onto the only connection he has left with her, his dreams. The film will portray how the mind which you dream in interprets memories. Each location will shoot the protagonist, the girlfriend, twice. Once using a camcorder (home footage) juxtaposed with footage from a HD camera (dream sequence). The home footage will be the memories he has of her, in everyday life. Contrasted with his minds manipulation of her character. For example one memory scene is set with the girl in the bath, she leans over the side and looks up at her boyfriend as he brushes his teeth. It will then cut to the dream where the girl is still in the bath but this time covered in red rose petals (also symbolic of death). As the girl has died almost all of the dream sequences will incorporate death, mostly through the use of props. Another dream sequence will be the girl surround by candles, commonly when someone young dies their friends and family join and each bring a lit candle.
Throughout the video the boy loses control of his dreams. Therefore losing his control of holding on to her. The lyrics repeat "be my dream come true, just play my game come true" As if a demand onto her to stay with him, she will eventually walk out of each scene to show you have no control over your dreams. And will fade from the memory sequences, to show her death.
