What I plan to do this week is to try and write a number or short scripts and use more people. Each film will then explore a different theme surrounding Facebook and how we communicate. Then each theme can be explored without confusion and mess.
So I have some themes to look at and ways to explore each one.
The first theme will be that "fun" repetitive side.
I want to look at arguments, love, adding friends, unfriending people, frape, noise, responses and others. But for this week, I want to look at friending and flirting.
People I spoke to seemed to prefer I keep it light like a bit of a piss-take, which is what it is, however I may explore some darker themes such as what happens to your FB profile when you die? Perhaps you become trapped in it?!
More to come.
I also want to build an interface which will be a mockery of FB, probably called Facespace... or Spacebook. Just to replace the blackness around each video and to make it a bit more obvious.
The beauty of this is that however I lay it out now, it can change and expand.
