My first story idea
So I had my first story idea. Well, my first good story idea that I feel I could actually develop into something serious. I got it immediately when I woke up this morning, I was half conscious. I think the idea may have started off as a quasi-dream and then morphed into me thinking about it, and then me thinking, "Wait, this is good!" Luckily I have my new moleskin journal sitting right by my bed. I will share it here later, once I submit it and all. I'm not sure how smart it would be to post a movie/short idea on the internet for everyone to steal...you greedy thieves. Haha, I'm just kidding, I'm just waiting for it to be fine tuned a little before I post it!
As a class we are voting on the five best story ideas, and then we will developing them into films. These five films will be shot on any of six Warner Brothers sets on the WB lot. I have the one in mind that I want for my idea, so hopefully the class will like it enough and vote it as one of the top five. You have no idea how bad I want to have an idea developed into a short this summer. Because if you are the writer, the story originator, people have to come back to you and ask you how you visioned x or y in whatever part of the movie. I would still enjoy developing someone else's idea, this is what I will probably be doing for years and years, but this summer is my chance to get an idea out there and be creative with it! So hopefully, I'll get my chance! Here are the sets if you want to look at the six sets that we have to choose from:
