As the start of our second year, the first project we have been given is Fiction Adaptation. Here I am allowed to choose any poem, short story or comic book/graphic novel to adapt into a 5 minute long short film.
Immediately when given this brief, I thought to myself that I wanted to do something different, I want to go down the horror route. Baring this in mind 2 poems automatically come to mind. The first is 'When Will the Forest Speak?', a truly frightening poem by the band Sikth. The other poem I thought of is 'The Raven' by Edgar Allan Poe - which has always been a favourite of mine fitting the gothic horror genre.
I believe I could do a lot with either of these 2 poems, whether I go for a literal adaptation or a more stylised root.
