You can film the rain falling in a puddle. You can film flowers poking up out of the snow, with breezes blowing their tops now and then. You can film two people having a conversation. You can interview someone about what it was like when they grew up and film the interview. You can film people playing a game, like monopoly, or tennis. You can film a puppet show. You can film a shadow theater. You can write a script for a short scene, and have someone perform it, and film it while they do. You can film rehearsals for a performance of a play. You can film people dancing. You can film something that has bold areas of different colors. You can film something that hardly has any color at all, but at one point you slowly pan across something that's very colorful in red or yellow among all that gray. You can film something happening behind a window, and then pan to another window with something different happening, or a differnt view of the same thing. Maybe in one window it's one part of a conversation, and in the other window it's the other person.. You can film an old, broken-down house, and film the details that make it look broken-down. You can film something happening very fast. You can film something happening very slowly. You can film something from underneath, and then from above. You can film someone teaching someone how to do something. You can film someone singing a song, or whistling. You can film someone dramatically reading some poetry. You can film someone getting a milk moustache. You can film someone eating cookies, but just film the cookies as they disappear, and maybe one time they put a cookie back on the plate with a bite out of it, or it's Oreos, and they put half of one back. Once you have filmed all of these things, you can probably think of something else to film all by yourself. |
