Sudden change!
To convey the concept of my film i would have to take a more static and literal approach to filming and editing. I have decided to play to the more visual aspect. I am going to re-shoot the footage without the map background. This way it will be a more visually pleasing film and still have the concept as all the bulbs are positioned to hang in each country, but there will not be the obvious loud map. It is a last sudden change but i think it will create a much more effective film in the end.

However here is an edit of the film with the map in the background. I painted the outline in glow in the dark paint so when the lights are off there would still be an interesting outline visible.
I am also unsure whether to involve text - but i would film it rather than have it appear as black and white text as below.

Here is a short clip of the production film, the whole film follows the process of making the light piece for the second film...but i am adding to the sound exaggerating the individual noises.
