Abstract:
This creative project is exploring how gender and sexuality can change the
narrative of a film. The project will consist of three short films, five pages in length. Each
film will have the same narrative and be shot identically to each other. The only thing
that will change among the three will be the couples playing the lead roles. The first film
will feature a straight couple, the second a gay couple and the last a lesbian couple. The
narrative will be a completely original piece separate from anything previously written.
The narrative will remain the same for all three films with the exception of using proper
pronouns for each couple. The script is a romantic drama about a young couple
navigating their lives after moving in together. It shows the beginning, middle and end of
the couple’s relationship. During production every shot will be done with the three sets
of couples to avoid inconsistencies between the films, and to make sure that all three are
completely identical besides the character changes
