I decided to watch the film I had planned on earlier, Brothers Grimm. I thought it would be useful as the story is based on the fairytale writers, and features a fictional tale as well as lots of elements from many of their stories. However, there were only a few references to the story of Snow White. The film contained the famous 'Mirror, mirror, on the wall, who's the fairest of them all?' as well as a quick shot of an old woman knocking on a door with a red apple, amongst some other small references. Although it did not relate a lot to the story of Snow White, or help me in terms of telling the original story, watching this film has proved quite useful to me. I took photographs of imagery that I think portrays a sinister feel, as well as a video I recorded that I think will be useful to my stop motion animation.
I have printed the photographs I took of the film and filed them in my visual reference folder, I am going to go on and use these images to inspire some pages in my development work. I will then come back to the video (shown below) when researching and making my animation to accompany my book.
