Ange and Brad’s Divorce Explanation
02/05/2010This was slightly different in the making as I used charcoal which at first I found incredibly difficult to use first off, but after the first two frames I started to get the grip of it’s raw nature (although alot more practice needed!). I used charcoal as I wanted to empathize the raw nature of a marriage break down through each frame. Having the experience of being through a divorce then I was younger I was interested in reading about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s marriage break down, which inspired me to write this short narrative. As research I looked at staged divorce break-ups to help me really put both character’s in a blind rational verbal fight.
Although after having my review this week gone, I got some interesting pointers about filming the feature in live action instead of charcoal, maybe in black and white to emphasize the rawness.
