For my short film I was originally planning to do a cultural video giving an insight into lives of some Asians today. However, as I started planning and constructing I felt as though the film that I had planned to do was not exactly what I wanted. I want my short film to be light hearted and I want the stereotypes of Indians to be clear. However, with the idea that I had in mind, the key themes and topics that I wanted to highlight were not obvious and this became increasingly clear during my filming process. So, I decided to alter my idea for a short film slightly and do a comparison of two cultures instead. This way, I can approach stereotypes of Asian people in a light hearted way as I originally intended.
Doing a comparison of westernised culture and Asians allows the key differences to be clear to the audience and is much more effective to construct. I feel that my slightly new idea will be better for audiences as it will now be easier to relate to, regardless of what culture or ethic background an individual may be from.
