Shoot one- worli koliwada

Our first shoot, a learning lesson

 Our location was chosen to be worli koliwada, a Famous tourist spot and a local fishing area for fisherman to fish all day.

The Worli Koliwada facelift is intended to blend seamlessly with the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, the planned coastal road and Worli Fort to create a unique aesthetic view to attract tourists.


Theme

We were trying to show a day in the life of a hardworking fisherman and get their perspective on how things are for them, hardships faced by them, and what their life is like.

Location

We chose this particular location, as it perfectly portrayed the theme we were trying to capture the side of Mumbai, that is not often displayed or given exposure by media.

This location was visually perfect for our documentary, from a cinematic point of view and even an aesthetical point of view.

Plan

My teammate Meit kanal and I went for a recce a week before our actual shoot. This was when we decided the location, shots and framing compositions for our film which was planned to be a documentary. We found a local fisherman, and told him about our plan, and he agreed to voice the documentary. We then exchanged contacts for our plan and were done for the day.

CREATIVE CRITICAL REFLECTION: INCARNATE

  Q1) How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? A1)Our film is a work of fiction, and doesn't essentially Target a social issue, but when it comes to depiction our film illustrates our idea on a very symbolic level. When I say symbolism, I mean how our film has provided slight hints to the viewers about the doppleganger itself,and is an abstract idea without a concrete explanation, which leaves it open to free thought and the viewer's creativity. When speaking about dopplegangers, it can mean a lot of things, such as split personality disorder symbolism where the charecter is same, but goes through a change in personality, as well as a fictional storyline where the doppleganger and protagonist are two different characters. Really it depends on what the viewer interprets when watching the film, and in my opinion that is the beauty of it, leaving the film at a cliffhanger keeps the idea open and possibilities endless.
