Planning the Plot

Planning

Storyline

After creating a brainstorming outline for my plot...I decided on idea 2!

Overall, I think I have created a good basis for my film opening. I have been focusing a lot on what the entire storyline of the film should contain as it will help me decide what should be in my film opening, but I was having trouble deciding the complete plot. What I do know is that I plan to have the film follow a 16 year old girl who is very genuine and always true to herself. The film will focus on her life as she becomes aware of the insecurities and struggles her peers around her are going through, which begin to have an effect on her. The film will follow themes about conforming to society, peer pressure, and how your surroundings effect you mentally. Deciding on how I want the plot to go has been very difficult for me, as I don't want the film to be too cheesy and stereotypical. 

Upcoming Group Meeting

In class on Thursday we will have our first group meetings about our projects and I am so excited! Getting insight on how my peers are feeling as we navigate through this complex project will be extremely helpful in allowing me to see where I am in the project compared to them. I hope the meeting will help me with deciding on my plot!
