Well we’re 4 weeks into the semester, I believed from the start to have my idea all sorted, apart from the finer details… like an actual story.
The idea I had originally planned to run with from the start, was to create a “choose your own adventure” style short movie, made for dvd. However, some problems arose when i started to really think deeper into the idea; like a basic story to film. After talking this problem through with some of my peers, I was given the idea to create a movie version of one of the already existing book stories. Great idea. Still, that would mean a whole lot of work for one person, not to mention the copyright issues involved with this idea considering that I would like to be able to use this piece in a portfolio when Uni is over. SO… solution to these problems, is to find a partner (which, most people are already partnered up or wanting to go it solo), or change my idea… possibly some other options could be thrown in there, like giving it a go and either failing or doing a half-arsed attempt at it.
If I were to choose the second option, and change my idea, there are a couple of things i am thinking about. The most probable of these is to do an online animation style version of the “choose your own adventure” story. HOWEVER, I am of the belief that this could be just as hard
IMPASS.
Other possible ideas:
- Multimedia package templates for clients requiring portfolios or the likes.
- An advertising campaign for an imaginary company/existing company/UQ Multimedia design degree.
- A movie trailer.
I need more ideas, and a solution FAST.
