While I wait for the updated-with-new-scenes, now-33:20 minute Quicktime storyboard to complete compression for Vimeo upload, it seems like a good time to relate the latest "layer" of reality in the Keskarel A Movie universe.

I think we've already established that The Videographer doesn't have the view of the building across the way that Keskarel has from her solitary window. Given The Videographer's obsession with seeing (i.e., her own eyes are not enough, so she carries a camera everywhere she goes), I think the best exploitation of the conflict we're (hopefully) showing in the storyboard so far, would be to change the situational fact that The Videographer doesn't know about the domestic violence that her neighbor is watching unfold. How best to exploit The Videographer's part in the core conflict than to show her able to hear but not see the neighbors' sturm und drang, and put it on the other wall from her apartment, which Keskarel would be able to see in the existing Keskarel universe.
Speaking as a person who never goes out the door without a camera, let me tell you that it really does make you crazy sometimes when you know something interesting is happening because you can hear but not see it.
So, my assignment this week is to engineer sounds of the neighbors fighting. Watch for an update later this week.
