A love story with a couple just finishing arguing and walking thru the streets of London using social media to contact each other. Using the mobile phone, web and any devices, the two lovers transcend across the virtual space trying to reach other. The same setting can be for Singapore as well.

Idea based on a script I am working on back in UK
Just a background note: I was working on this script for a British friend who is a fan of Kant, and also a theatre director. I shelved the script to prose when I learned of his death after I come home from my summer holidays. So, I changed the script to prose as a result. It was one of the 4 stories in the script and it is called "Winter". :)
Let's see how far this goes.. :)
Love, 140 characters at a time
Aha! I was wondering why no one has submitted a love story yet. So here we have the first love story suggestion. Will you care to direct this little short film? Who would you nominate to star in it?
If I have the choice
I will be interested to direct this film. It's based on a short story I am working on for some time. Hmmm, I will prefer to use someone new and not famous... You got male and female leads for me? U want to do it in Singapore?
Filmmaker Bernard Leong
Cool. You probably know about the budding starlets in Singapore than I do. We must include shot of Merlion in the film. :)
Some important props
An iPhone, Nokia phone and netbook for the leads to move around the city. Yes, I include the Merlion and the Singapore Flyer.
You Are So Advanced
Wah! iPhone, Nokia and netbook...are you thinking of product placement opportunities already? :) We need to get the Flyer to cough up some money too.
Script Idea
Hi Siok Siok,
I have actually written a part of the story, and might have to modify the whole script for another setting. Yup, I can get Nokia to be interested for this product placement opportunity. Probably will be a challenge to get Apple to sponsor. :)
Of course, I know of some good cafe locations where the whole filming process can take place. :)
