Brainstorming Genre and Ideas for a story Pt ll

I made a chart to help plan out the props needed to create the scene; this isn’t including the tools needed to make the set, actors needed, or the costume design:

Idea	Prop(s) or Necessary equipment	Ingredients	Costs	Motivation
The dying protagonist	Fake blood 3 shirts	Corn Syrup Red, Blue, and Green dye 3 shirts for multiple takes	$5 Time to make the blood Separate plans for the different takes	This idea is enjoyable, and I’m hoping I can get the green light to do this idea.
Grieving protagonist w/ imaginary friend	Stuffed Animal Tombstone Fake Will	Stuffed Animal Styrofoam Paper	$7 Time to make the fake tombstone	I think this idea is fun and I can make artistic traits more prevalent with the grieving mind of the main character.
Cookie Cutter  Coming of Age	Book  Backpack Journal pen & paper	Book Backpack Journal pen & paper	None	I’m not as thrilled about this idea as the others but I believe I can still put my artistic spin on it.

From the chart above I’ve put down some of the ideas and repercussions to think about when making props. I’m still open to new ideas but I wanted to mark down what I might need for the future. 

I also wanted to make a note of movies, shows, and openings that might be of assistance. For the thriller genre: Pyscho, The Silence of the Lambs, and Gone Girl. I’ll be taking notes and analyzing the openings. When I do, I’ll report back to this blog so that not only will others see and but it’ll also be on record for what I feel and noticed then. 

For the coming of age genre or more accurately the drama genre, I’ve selected Akeelah and the Bee, Moonlight, and 13 Reasons Why. I realize the coming of age-genre is probably closer to the overarching genre of drama; therefore instead of “coming of age” I’ll just say drama. Until next time! 

Hello World

 Hey, I'm Jireh, just a basic student with a basic life documenting my work and my journey in Media to Studies. My hope is that 'future me' can look back to learn and grow from my mistakes.

To start the adventure, I'll give a little introduction as to who I am. I am a young adult who loves to make and tell stories, especially through film and writing. I aim to someday professionally direct and create my own stories for the world. I have to get my ideas out there whether it's to be hated or loved, the ideas I have must be released one way or another and I hope to use any influence I have to shed light on the problems of the world. 

Until next time. :)
