The video "When I Grow Up" is basically a retelling of Dr Seuss's final book "Oh, The Places You Will Go" and its basically a film about growing up, living your dreams and entering the path of finding out where your path is in life. I think its an extremely interesing premise.
One of my earliest idea's was using a childrens story or fable, so for this director to use Dr Seuss I can really relate to his thought process.
I really like how he's interviewed many people and I think its a really good idea for film. However personally I would want to have a more narrative and fictional feeling, which would relate to the fact that when we're younger we're told the way we should behave by little stories with moral endings.
But because I really like the interview idea, for my audience research it would be really interesting to interview people of my age, and ask them about their first memory of school and what they used to want to do when they were older and now what they want to do.
Interviewing this age range will be interesting because at 17/18 you are about to make some very important life decisions, and should hopefully have a desired path in life.
The other thing I really like in Teddy Saunders video was the use of vibrant colours and very interesting camera angles, for example the girl spinning around is very interesting.
There are alot of interesting ideas I could use, and encourperate in my own film.
