For my visual poem I plan on following my friend doing several activities and cutting each activity short, leaving the viewer guessing the ending of the sequence. For example, waiting for the train:
He’s seen waiting on the train platform at say Chambers street (I think that station has an interesting look, it’s kind of eerie) and shots would include the platform, maybe him walking down the stairs, a close up of him looking ahead or down the tunnel, and a shot of the train arriving in station. For sound I want to use a combination of natural sound and background for certain shots. This sequence for example might include the sounds of the station and during the close up you can overhear the music from his headphones.
