Bride is with family and friends, planning elements of her wedding. She is considering elements such as flowers, catering, invitations, but develops doubts about getting married to this man. When she’s outside of the room these doubts become flashbacks. When he’s being weird e.g. she looks over his shoulder and sees large amounts of money being transferred to other accounts, sees him order a tv and sound system worth a lot of money and seeing the brides family members without her knowing and asking them about family inheritance, but she does not question him. It gets to the point where she has to choose to go through with this decision. The film will finish with her choosing to go to her wedding or run away.

Bride: what you doing?

Groom: (closes phone,slightly jumpy) what? Oh, nothing.

Bride: could've sworn I saw massive TV

Groom: oh yeah, and looking for one for my friend

Bride:but it's like £3000

Groom: yeah I know I'm just browsing

bride: why you transferring so much money into Sterns account?

Groom: oh that? He's just saving some money up for me

bride: did you see my family yesterday?

Groom: yeah I just want to get to know them

week 3 movement and passing of time

The movement indicated here is putting and taking off jewellery which also relates to the passing of time. On an abstract level, for me, the lighting in the images indicates wearing jewellery brings happiness but also the stages of life in the sense that, for a female, the obsession with jewellery gradually increases to ‘make fashion statements’ (2-3) which transfers to a wedding ring (4) and general decrease in jewellery to not wearing any again for reasons such as practicality/ loss of the relationship.

Week 2 character

The aspects portrayed of this person show that they engage in reading, up to date with technology, wears casual clothes and owns a unique pair of footwear, likes to keep things tidy. The footrest on the floor roughly indicates their height and indicates posture issues. This person is likely to be female.

This person takes pride in their appearance and hygiene, most likely female due to the mirror and type of lights in the room, it is evident that they own quite a lot of things due to the number of cupboards.
