I've had a thought about what my film could be. After looking at how other creatures see the world, and what we miss when we see images, I think I could demonstrate this in a similar way to how the video with the gorilla does.
My idea is to record a situation, either a POV handheld scenario or filming a character and at first play it in real time. Then play it again in a split screen with that same situation slowed right down almost to a frame still, and have it slowly playing next to it. The idea here is that we will have hidden details in the original film that you may have missed in the real time version. The idea of this is to show you what you miss when you watch something, or indeed go through something in life. I want the audience to realize that what the eye actually sees and remembers in truth is very little. We rely very heavily on our expectations of what is likely to happen and just our plain imagination to fill the gaps in our memory, and as a result we see very little.
I think it's an interesting idea that could work very well and I may do some small tests and a bit more research into this technique to develop my idea a little more.
