Random Film Ideas

• There is a house around the corner from my street that had bars to protect the front door and around the house that looks quite scary and mysterious. I could possibly use this as a set if I went through with the idea of an orphanage.
• Because Tim Burton's films are dark with accents of light, I had a cool shot idea of a person holding a candle and walking around the house in the dark.
• I want to achieve an 'underworld' sort of story but I can't really do that unless I want to prepare a 2 hours film. I must keep it short and simple so this is an obstacle that I must be weary of
• I can use the gold side of the reflector to create a warm light mood because Tim Burton manipulates the use of warm and cool lighting
• I had the thought of using my younger sister as an actress; however I don't know how that would turn out because she is only 6 years old and it would be difficult to control her maturely. I only thought of this because, like in Alice In Wonderland, Burton's films often start with the character at a young age and then goes forward in time. I could use the fact that I have a younger sister here at home, but again it's just an idea as an option
