The Artist within us

The documentary follows four aspiring artists, each of them with their own choice of medium on how to convert their unique story into something visually that depicts their relationship towards art.

Synopsis:

This documentary is going to show four artists doing their medium/s of art while in the background the audio reveals their opinion, passion and relationship to art. The four interviews are not going to be chronologically order in the video but rather instead the answers are going to be chronological making it seem like the four artists are adding on to each other create a long single monologue.

Script:

The video starts of with a black screen and the answer to question 11) answered by all four artists. The main part of the documentary is going to show all of the artists doing their passion in form of different medium while the other answers to the questions play in the background but seem to hold a story/plot as if someone was holding a poetic speech about art. The final scenes will be about question 12) which will have the exception of having each artist in front of a white background giving their advice directly to the camera and thereby directly to the audience.

(I wish I could write more about the envisioned script but a great part of this documentary and its structure is passed on what the artist´s responses will look like)
