It's a Plan Stan! (Take 2)

After a discussion with our assessor, about our newly revised plan for our trailer, we came across an idea which seemed to spark up a debate. We have, at our disposal, a house with both incredibly modern sections, such as a kitchen, bathroom and bed room, and old, 1920-40s looking rooms, including the living room, the hall and the dining room. This sparked an idea in our minds about time travel, or visions from another time. This lead from one idea to another, and we ended up using a scene from The Shining for inspiration. The idea we have is that the protagonist sees visions of himself in the past, committing heinous acts, yet he is unable to leave, or stop them. The lines between these visions and reality become increasingly blurred until the two cannot be told apart.

An alternative idea which branched off this would be if one version of the protagonist was stuck inside this house, moving between the past and the present, with another version of the protagonist attempting to get in to either free them, or kill them due to a discovery made by the person on the outside. A great deal of illusion- based imagery would be utilized, as well as old style objects and possessions, which we have access to. These potential props include;

• An old style telephone
• A Gramophone
• Pocket Watches
• Old porcelain-like dolls
• A Typewriter
• Old Records
• Masquerade masks

We could also make newspapers if the trailer warranted such objects. Aside from this, we also have a wide range of suits and similar costumes which fit in with our chosen time period.

Furthermore, we have also had a few thoughts about potential music that could be utilized if we were able to use such a theme and a setting; 

Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPiTrnPVvTM

After You've gone (1912)- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kA6ulKFXiTA

Midnight with the stars and you- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQmOvngHQk4

From the above we now have a number of new ideas to consider, which we will now take into consideration when working on our idea.
