The perspective of a relationship


Hello everybody, and no I am not telling you how I am doing on the editing of this baby.

I have made a couple of decisions regarding on how I am editing the video; such as doing a sound bridge at the beginning of the scene by first starting of the noise of the party which is occurring on the living room and then Juan appears as he wakes up (meaning that by starting in such manner, it would give the audience the feeling as if we are in Juan's shoes). In the scene as it would occur many times on the film, we will be able to perceive the circumstances according to Juan's perspective meaning that once in a while it may be altered into a more imaginative perspective, away from what is truly occurring (like the fact of Ana Sofia and Juan dancing, when actually Juan has not approached Ana yet to ask her to dance).

It has also been decided that after Juan approaches Ana, a thought of her feeling uncomfortable will be shared breaking the fourth wall, since it will work as her consciousness, what she will tell herself. I consider that the way in which both character's will communicate their perspectives both Juan by altering the reality and Ana by sharing her thoughts and comments and what is occurring, it would bring a more creative and broader perspective on how memories could be manipulated, and how one may communicate with oneself since I remember from the class of Developmental Psychology that I took during summer; that one's memories are always altered on things we decided to make an emphasis on, or they could be completely altered from what truly happened. This mostly happens in childhood memories, but so it happens when one is misunderstanding a situation such as jumping into conclusions (it has happened to me a lot, and this week I got to see how many times I assumed something from what a friend said, and it meant the opposite since I decided to focus on only one aspect, and completely ignored what made the sentence or the intention different; I don't know but this occurs a lot when one is texting but so it happens in everyday life conversations and interactions).

So yeah I have decided I have decided to represent such perspectives of both protagonists in this manner, and now that I am thinking about it, I would like to make clear that I am not conveying that I consider boys to be more superficial or uncapable of understanding the social situations, but honestly the reason why I have decided to represent both perspectives in this way, it is due to the fact that from my experience, I have only been in the shoes on how to manage relationships from the perspective of the feminine gender, meaning that in Ana Sofia's perspective it made with more depth and reality, since it is more accurate to what I have experienced. Juan's perspective would be more of fantasy since I wanted to also demonstrate how Ana Sofia's maturity on relationships would contrast from Juan, exaggerating his perspective of the love made up of pure fantasy, giving comedy to the film. This would not be with the intention of following stereotypes or giving label that men have a more basic criteria when looking for love, but this fantasies perspective could also be relevant to any gender since it is common to blindly fall in love with someone idolizing them, what would mostly occur in the first experiences with relationships. SO, I am not intending to give any label nor underestimate young boy in love, I just want to make a point of how love could be visualized different according to the maturity of the individual.
