Fiction Adaption (Initial Idea 2)

   I had an idea of something to incorporate into my short film. Even though I do not know what my film is going to be at the moment I was thinking of having footage shown on the screen be pieced together to make a music to accompany the film. This is only and idea at the moment and if I did plan to go ahead with it it would have to match the mood. If it is not clear on what I am talking about the video bellow will show what I am trying to describe. I will not be using garbage or instruments in my version but this is just to give a general idea on what I am going to aim for.

Fiction Adaption (Initial Idea 1)

   For the fiction adaption unit I have decided to choose the poem 'The Cenotaph' by Charlotte Mews. Out of all of the poems I feel that I understand the poem yet at the same time be able to find different meanings and visualise different interpretations. The poem may be about world war 1 but when reading it without the thought of war in your head there can be different meanings drawn from it.
   One way that I have interpreted the poem is that it could have some sexual connotations. Researching Mews' I have found that many people have claimed that she was an in-closeted lesbian; during the time she was alive this would have been highly frowned upon. Reading the first two lines of the poem (Not yet will those measureless fields be green again where only yesterday the wild sweet blood of wonderful youth was shed) can be interpreted the fields being a metaphor of innocence being lost, which could be youth being lost when someone loses their virginity. I may be taking her possible personal life too much into consideration while analysing the poem but even if there are not sexual meaning behind these words, they definitely have a sense of some form of innocence or purity being lost.
