Response for new story 03/10/12

After presenting the life swap treatment that me and Karis have produced, as you know by receiving feedback from our class, we then decided that we needed to either include more scenes that actually made sense to what we were attempting to present or ,to produce a new treatment. Therefore me and Karis decided to produce a new treatment since our feedbacks considered to be very complex and by including more scenes will consist a lot of time consuming of the film.

 

 

After the decision, we both individually manage to do our own research about building a character for Kat. I had to develop a lot of research to understand how we are going to present this character and also think of a new situation which doesn’t consider being very complex. Therefore I have managed to go through the mood board that I have previously produced, in which some of the images such presenting young teenagers drinking and smoking and also the family background can be used to present why has Kate become of who she is in today’s aspects. However I then thought of including a situation where Kate may become murdered in which she doesn’t know because of her drinking problem leading to her of having limbo. Therefore I furthered my research of looking up articles relating to school massacres such as the incident in columbine in 1999.

 

Overall me and Karis still preferred the idea of focusing on the limbo as an eternal state, in which can be used as an interesting twist for our story. I have managed to keep the research of the underage drinking and the idea of how teenagers interact with adults in today’s society. Therefore by including a new formatted treatment being involved of what the characters motivation is will be executed brilliantly.
