This is where Lindy and Kyle first meet, the scene shows Kyle hiding beneath his hood which tells the audience he is shy and insecure. Music is playing in the backgroung very quietly.
This is the first time Kyle and Lindy go on a date and he takes her to a rose garden. The volume of the music increases and the dialog stops.
The film then cuts to the couple reading poetry in the same rose garden but we see a time difference as the roses are no longer blooming and there is snow outside on the ground. This tells the audience the couple have been seeing each other from the end of summer through to winter giving the audience an image of their long term relationship.
This medium shot shows what the couple are looking at. This is the scene where the couple break in to a zoo together and watch a film. This creates excitement for the viewer as well as the dim light making the scene feel romantic.
This is the final scene in the sequence which shows Lindy asleep on Kyle which tells the audience she trusts him and their relationship is close. As the sun rises in the scene the music becomes quieter to signify the ending of the relationship.
In romantic films the time passing sequences build up a false sense of security with an audience before something happens to tear the couple apart. We have used this structure in our film. We also used a similar technique to Beastly by using the same location, by the lake, but showing the couple first in big winter coats in dark cold weather first meeting and then later with t shirts on hugging in the sun to show the audience how much their relationship has advanced.
