Dissemination for project

For the dissemination of my short film, I wanted it to be shown in a dark room on its own away from any other noisy exhibitions, this is called a solo gallery exhibition or a small gallery space. The reason for wanting it to be separate from any other exhibitions which make noise, is because my video has a narration over the top of it, and it is important for the viewers to be listening to the words I am saying otherwise the narration wouldn't make any sense, if the exhibition was shown on its own, I can avoid this problem. I also want the walls to be painted black and the lighting to be dim, this is so the viewers can see the film properly, but also to set the scene as the film goes into quite deep key subjects in my life.

I want four benches all together for people to sit on, I want for because I don't want the room to look too overcrowded. By using benches, it welcomes people in to sit for a short while when they watch my film. Originally for the sound I wanted 8 headphone sets which would be attached to the benches, but when I thought about it people might just walk past the room as they might not know whats in there, therefore I decided to just have the sound playing loud so everyone in the room can hear it, but also people walking past can too. I didn't want to use a digital screen to present my film on because I feel a TV would look tacky in the room, I also wanted to emulate the feel of a cinema experience as I photographically filmed this film. I also wanted to make the side walls look interesting, so I decided that I would put 4 stills from the film hanging on the walls, as this is a photographic project and one of the themes is stillness, 2 stills will hang on each side. I decided that one side should have the shots that where filmed at my family home, and the other side should have stills of the shots which where filmed in my student accommodation. The stills that I would use would be the images below:

This is my early draft idea of what I wanted the small gallery space to look like:
