Both old and new technology will be used in my film- Jack uses an old home video camera to film Rachel, they both use a photobooth which produces an analogue version of a photograph that he keeps in his room, and Jack uses a computer and social media sites to try to find Rachel years later. Old technology is associated with Rachel, a memory in the past that is held in analogue form: it seems much more nostalgic, like the way you feel when you look at old photographs of past holidays with family and friends. Without her, this feeling is not there- Jack uses social media to find her, and even checks his smartphone briefly when he gets to the station. This use of digital technology is often a much less personal form of communication as it can instead just isolate us from the people right in front of us, which is shown when Jack is transfixed by his screen and barely looks at his friend Alfie walks into the room.
