First Post Ever!

Hi there, my name is Natalie and this is my AICE Media Studies project. So I'm just going to jump right in and tell you the first three ideas that came into my head when we started planning.

So a huge part of my life revolves around running. Back in January I completed my third full marathon and just a few weeks ago I ran a 25 kilometer race with my dad. So naturally my first idea was a film about someone who is running their first marathon. I have a vision for what this opening could be, but I'm quite hesitant on it. Typically when I have to do something creative or when someone asks me what's important to me, I always write or talk about running. I want to do something different, something that will challenge me (cheesy, I know).

My second idea was a story about a brother, mid 20s, and a sister, early teens, who have an absent mother and their father just recently died. The story would follow their chaotic relationship and their struggle to move forward with their lives. If I did this idea, I would want to delve into mental disorders that go along with these traumatic events.

My third idea is a story following a cellphone. Nowadays, people can't go anywhere-literally anywhere- without their phones. So imagine living in a phones' speakers (that's a pun) for a day. The film would open with the alarm going off and follow a teen on his/her typical day, including the bathroom. Something I would have to heavily rely on is sound, since all we'd be watching is a phone. The only thing is I'm not sure what the plot would be...

Stay tuned to see which one I pick, or if I come up with something else!
