"Show, don't tell"
In discussion with Peter North, we were advised to include sound in our piece, besides the music. Our group finally decided to book out sound equipment for the filming days to record diegetic sounds such as the toast popping up, butter spreading and the kettle boiling. These sounds will be incorporated within the soundtrack.
However, we were opposed to adding any dialogue or voice-over, and instead wanted to really focus on the actor's performance, whereby their facial expressions and gestures will hopefully communicate a message to the audience. The lack of dialogue within our film also enhances its dream like quality as the young boy is Michael's memory of himself as a child.
