Title: HELP ME WRITE A MOVIE
Post by: Sam on January 04, 2009, 06:57:07 PM
Okay, so for my video production final, I have to write a 3-5 minute movie (and film it and stuff). My story board is due tuesday... and my brainstorming has brought me nowhere. It can be any genre. I'd prefer it if it was nothing too complicated becausefor some reason any sort of complex 3-5 minute movie made in high school sucks. I'm sure mine would be no exception.

Anyway, help me brainstorm a bit please... and if you really want to write the whole thing out yourself, feel free. >.>

I suck. :(

Yes it has to be live action and yes it can be artistic. I actually would love to just make something artistic, but I just don't know what to do.  The thing is, it really needs to have an audio track other than like.. some song in the background. Well I guess it doesn't need talking.. but it can't just be a music video of sorts.

I get A's on these sort of things all the time. bassir;

Pick any genre and I'll try to come up with a plot.  Are there other people in this with you or is the movie by yourself?

Actually, this is a good idea.  It has potential to be really funny, and it suites your interests.

Do the story of a kid who runs away from home after his parents scold him "just to show 'em." Have said kid get killed by a car or something and show the family's reaction, whatever you want it to be.

Sit in bed naked and face down. Have a man come in, preferably older, and lay down a stack of flapjacks on your bare bottom. Let the melting butter and syrup seep all over your buttocks and into your crack. Have the man slowly eat the flapjacks without saying a word. Once he gets halfway through the flapjacks, start silently sobbing and make sure it's visible. When he finishes, have him lay down his suitcase on your sticky butt, then the first statement will be made: "GODDAMNIT WOMAN, YOU GOT MY PAPERS STICKY."

He'll then go off to work, angry and disappointed with you with his sticky briefcase in tow.

Fin.

Also, must be in black and white for greater dramatic impact.

I have a reasonable idea for you...

Have it be a series of scenes filmed in average locations, that contain a good amount of people (airport, cafeteria, gym). Then focus the main idea on a man, who is walking around these scenes looking for something, but everyone else is frozen. Then at the end, just have the man and a woman be looking directly at each other in an empty room, perfectly still.

You can either get lots of friends to stand still for you in these places, or I guess use a green screen but that wouldn't look nearly as good.
