(Post 39) Final idea based on all planning

The basic storyline for my idea is still the same:
It is still a love story, with a 'split-screen' feel- half the story is set in the past, and the rest set in the present. The main character is still going to use photographs to see into the past, and these will still show the progression of their relationship. 


The only bit I have changed is the storytelling. The main character is going to behave in a different way to portray the story in a more interesting, mobile way. Specifically, rather than just remaining in one location (before running to her girlfriend's house), she is going to pick up the photographs and go for a walk. 
Along her way, she will find the locations used in the photographs (the field, the river, the bench), and hold up the photograph to the location. Examples of this technique include:
This won't change the story in any way but will make it more interesting, as there will be more of a journey, rather than just staying in one location. Megan's new route is:

Start at field near Tiffey.
Walk (walking shots).
 Tiffey (hold up a photo).
Walk (Walking shots).
Abbey (hold up a few photos- them on a bench, walking etc).
Walk (Walking shots). 
Field near my house (hold up a few, with longer focus).
See argument shots in a photo. 
Run to Charlotte's house (really mine).
End

This hasn't changed the story in any way but just makes it more interesting. It will be a little more difficult, as I will have to be quite specific with the locations, and remember where each photo was shot and how they were framed.
