Story Construction:
Idea 1
Dylan:
Suppose a family move into a town, where, unbeknownst to them, there is a person that murders a supposedly innocent person every full moon. My lead's story goal is to solve who the murderer is, and why they only attack on full moons. Also, they attempt to keep their family out of danger by keeping them ignorant of the events.
My film is about a person who is attempting to uncover the mystery of the murders that happen in their town that they have moved to, as well as trying to keep their family from being scared. He/She will do this by following links between the murders, whether they're connected, and what they have to do with the full moon.
My character will be Elizabeth Mcgee, a mother who works in a well paid job as a successful journalist and provides money for her husband and teenage daughter. She looks young for her age of thirty, and is quite sarcastic in her mannerisms. She has had quite a protected life, for her parents are quite wealthy, so she hasn't come in to contact with anything threatening until now. Other than her lack of experience in the unordinary, she is quite a strong willed character, and doesn't appear to be fazed by anything strange or creepy.
The oppositional character is the murderer that only attacks on the full moon. This character gets in the way of Elizabeth Mcgee, due to her worry for her son and husbands safety. She will be both wary and curious about the identity of this murderer, and will try to discover who they really are whatever the cost.
The confidant will be Mcgee's 16 year old daughter. She confides with him, often finding that her husband's advice is not the best, whereas their son's is. Like his mother, this teenager will not have had any experience with the strange or unordinary, and Elizabeth Mcgee would prefer to keep this ignorance how it is.
Audience Feedback:
Daughter instead of son
Risk of being killed
Discover murders through neighbour, who has had friends that were murdered
Have a pattern to the deaths
Idea 2:
Scarlett:
Goal: My leads story goal is to get rid of evil spirit in house.
Crisis: Suppose evil spirit terrorises a family.
Story: The family must try to survive and find a way to rid the evil spirit from their house. My lead character would be the farther of the family. He will be middle aged, tall, with dark hair. He will very protective of the rest of the family and very serious. He will be middle class and work in the city in an office. his name will be John Coleman.
The oppositional character will be the evil spirit and the confidant will be the mother of the family.
Idea 3:
Isaac:
Crisis - Mother and Father realise their daughter is possessed by a demon upon visiting a haunted house in a forest. Daughter is affecting their lives by haunting them and trying to kill them and her brother.
Story Goal - The goal is to stop her and perform an exorcism with the aid of a priest. Ultimately to save her life and theirs, or alternatively just theirs if need be.
The parents will go to a priest upon releasing that their daughter is possessed and attempt to perform an exorcism. When this fails they are unaware of how to help their child. They then travel back to a house near where they live that they believe is the cause of the possession. The mother will be taken by the daughter and it will be left to find her and save their daughter from the demon. The daughter will try to prevent him from doing so.
The lead character will be the father of the family and will be roughly 35 years old. He will be dark haired and tall and will be of middle class. He will be fairly successful and will be happy in life until the daughter is possessed. His name will be Mark Johnson.
Oppositional: Daughter/Demon
Confident: Mother
