√ 1. Beginning: a chat on the hill about what we would do on the last day of the world (1’08 min)

Video is turned off suddenly.


I break down.

I become excited and explain the idea of wishing to an asteroid.
I talk about how and when to wish,
and introduce the idea of making a wearable device.

√ 4. Test the prototype and tie knots. (1’30 min)
。
5. Montage of buildings and tyings with news reports. Time flies. (My next priority for cutting.)
1) building

Already 9’30 min. Aim to edit the whole film down to 15min.

New Role of Sound: it is what connects to his inner feelings and the ghost orchestra – but doesn’t solely carry the story now. It is a part of it, just like the rest :
because we got into the visuals and it made sense to us to also focus on visuals. It naturally developed and it felt like the focus on the sound limited us.
We managed to make much more with the visuals than we thought we can do. Now each dimension of the film equally tells its part of the story.
