POST #26 - PLANNING: PLOT AND SCRIPT

The plot has been finalised! Finally! So why don't we run through it, plotbeat by plotbeat? We start off seeing Alan sitting at a table outside a cafe. He's having a phone call, while letting his drink go cold. We can hear a female voice, Lisa, on the other end of the phone, who's trying to gently let Alan know it's over. On her end, Lisa's new boyfriend, Chad, grabs the phone. He shouts down to Alan that "the world is gonna roll him". Furious, Alan hangs up, and leaves the cafe. He walks into a musical instrument shop, looking at a selection of guitars, feeling sad. He remembers how he played guitar for Lisa. He leaves the shop without buying anything, and starts walking down the street. He stops for a second, seeing a poster. It reads "MUSICAL TALENT WANTED!", and then a phone number. Alan considers it, then walks away. A second later, he rips the poster off the wall, and runs home. This is the point where All Star starts playing. Alan ...

POST #54 - EVALUATION QUESTION 2

For this question, I'm going to talk about how my ancillary tasks and music video coincide with each other, and demonstrate clear synergy and a consistent theme between products.

POST #34 - PLANNING: DIRECTORIAL STYLE

Image
My choice for directorial influence is slightly unconventional, but it fits with my unconventional theme. My chosen style is the style of Jack Douglass. Jack Douglass, also known as Jacksfilms, is an internet comedian, singer, musician and all around entertainer. His brand is mostly known for memes and jokes, both of which are main focuses of his channel. Over the 10 year lifespan of his YouTube channel, Douglass has made numerous music videos, covering almost every single base possible. He's made songs spanning holidays (including Thanksgiving, somehow), historical figures, the YouTube landscape, etc. While his original songs aren't going to break chart records at any point, his music videos have amassed millions of views individually; impressive, considering that most of the time, it's a one man operation involving Douglass himself.  His editing style allows for jokes to hit harder, usually due to the deliberate cutting off of dialogue. For a good example ...
