My idea

 I am going for an idea where I am going to show the struggles of procrastination whilst trying to do your homework. 

The film will only include me - Jacob.

The film will start with a 7 second mid shot of my dog with a upbeat non diegetic song over the top and the title of the film will pop up in the middle of the shot and then 5 second black screen will come up after with other information like the director etc and then another 5 second one after that with different information still with the music over it.

1st act will be me sitting in my chair at my desk in my bedroom, head in hands staring at my MacBook. This is because I am stalling and do not want to do my work. There will be no non diegetic sounds, it will just all be silence with me sighing and at the end I say "I can't be arsed to do this shit, why have I been given a 5,000 word essay to do in the space of a day, what's the point man". After that I will look at the camera and it will jump cut to a close up shot of my face and music will start playing and it will cut to the Act 2 This scene will involve various different camera shots including a close up of my face, a shot of the empty word sheet on my computer, a mid shot of me etc. The editing speed will go fairly slow as it is a chill scene. 

Second act is a montage with the music still playing from act 1. This montage will include me making tea, gaming, running round my garden, playing with my dog etc. This will involve many different camera shots like close ups, mid shots etc. And will include different editing techniques like fast pace, slow pace, time lapse etc.

3rd act is me going back to my chair, head in hands still stalling to do my work but the I look up and see my headphones and there will be a close up of my headphones with a heaven type non diegetic type music. I put them on and all sound disappears like noise cancellation, and a song starts playing and I start doing the work. there will be different kind of camera shots of me doing it then I just sit there staring at my computer with a cut to my computer with the work completed and then it goes back to the normal mid shot and I close my laptop and fall asleep on the table and it goes black. Editing pace is slow.
