New Wave design brief

I have studied a range of New Wave movements and I have decided to focus on the French New Wave because of its influence on cinema. I am researching and analysing three French New Wave texts. I have decided to apply some of the characteristics from the New Wave and these texts to my own New Wave film. Some of the techniques I will be using in my film are: Jump cuts, lack of narrative, colour overlays and a handheld camera. These techniques were used in the French New Wave in order to break the rules of film. Jump cuts were introduced as a way to save time watching characters doing things that were unimportant to the overall narrative.
