- My final project focuses on the effect that a failing economy has over the decisions of people.
- Different scenarios in which individuals are affected by economy will be presented. These scenes will by encased in a television that is in the form of a domino. I will change from scene to scene in a drastic manner. In one particular scenario, a man works at mcdonalds after losing a high paid job and takes the position before his daughter can get it. At the end of the scenarios, the dominos will fall after being pushed by the economy.
- The failing economy has an effect on everyone.
- The content will switch from screen to screen as if people’s lives were only scenarios, but these are actual events that can and have happened. The domino will emphasize the overall theme of how one event affects the next. Storm Trooper
6. Set-up: I establish failing economy by first scene when stock market drops and man is fired.
conflict: scenarios end badly for these characters
resolve: There isn't a peaceful resolve but the dominos at the end make the connection with all of the events that I show.
The piece sounds like it has some interesting overtop humor to it, but it sounds a little confusing. It would probably make a lot more sense if the plots were connected in some way and also made a little more sense.
ReplyDeleteI think this piece could work if executed correctly. I think that the domino effect is a good idea but should not actually show dominoes. I believe the domino effect should be shown only through the scenarios. You mentioned having a man get fired from his job then taking a position at Mcdonalds before his daughter could get it. After this scenario the daughter could rob somebody for money or sell drugs having another character introduced then move to another scenario through the newly introduced character.
ReplyDeleteExecution should be the main concentration. Try looking at the breakdown of shows like "Robot Chicken" and analyze how they execute there sketches. I think the 'grandma' scene could very funny if we had connection between her and the man she's robbing.
