Here are a few important freeze frames from our motion picture (start to finish)…

Despite the fact that this is just a two minute opening to a film, the group thought about what would actually happen throughout the rest of the film. Not meaning to ruin it for anyone, but we decided that the majority of the film would be about ‘Harry’ and his battle having to deal with a terminally ill girlfriend. The majority of films about the terminally ill are about the ill characters themselves so we thought it would be a better idea to base the majority of the film on a character having to deal with it – ‘Harry’ proving the perfect example. At the end of the film it was kind of inevitable that ‘Lily’ would die, but we wanted the ending to be enlightening and hopeful, not so much depressing, giving a sense of freedom and peace to those who were around ‘Lily’, purely because now she is no longer suffering.
Oh, and although it was said having copyright was not a necesity…we managed to finally obtain it! (All thanks to Megan Habgood.)

Hoorah!
Overall I have found the filming of the piece extremely enjoyable and I have learnt a number of skills. Despite the many stressful occasions, i am really pleased with the final outcome, and would like to thank my group for making it such a fun and educational experience. Well done!
