Summary
'Missed' is a 5 minute short film by Guy Ducker. In the film a man is sat working at his laptop in a cafe. One of his friends walks in and informs him a woman has died. The man is shocked, when he sees the woman in question walking past the window. The sit down and chat about how shocked he was when he thought she died, and how he'd wished he'd got to know her better. The woman fades away to nothing and the man continues working.
Why it relates to 'The Lost Ones'
Missed was actualy the main inspiration behind our film. The content of the movie is obviously similar except we like to think the way we film our movie will be very different and contrasting. The concept of meeting up with a person who is just a memory is one that appeals to all of us at Six String Studios.
What I Like
There's a lot to be said about Duckers film. Although it doesn't delve into any majorly traumatic issues (we want our project to deal with terrorism and lost love) it concentrates very well on the particular topic at hand, and through a varied length of shots effectively creates a subtly beautiful film. Generaly, I think this project works very well as a short film as you get a real sense of character development and narrative in a very short space of time.
