Drama - Idea Two (Chosen Idea)
So, our second idea is all about a guy called Martin. He is a single 24 year old man who worked part time in a supermarket and voulteers one day a week at an old peoples home. He is very into his comouter games, Playstation games, crosswords, comics, sci-fi films etc. Martin is very happy and content with his life apart from one thing is missing, a lovely lady to join him.
this five minute drama piece involves Martin signing up to an online dating website in the hope of looking for love. It will show him around his house and showing the viewers what he gets up to on a daily basis as to what he is putting into his dating video.
There will be various shots if him around the house completing various "nerdy" activites such as painitng his action figures, playing playstation and computer games, completing crosswords, reading comics etc. It will include several point of view sdhots of him typing on teh screen to make the audience believe that the story is real. Also it will show a response in his emails which the audeince will also get to see.

Although this is idea is very simple, with a variety of different shots including point of view to focus pulls, I think technically wise it will shine. I prefer it to idea one as well as it only depends on one actor not three and as a group we were finding it severely hard to find actors to suit the part correctly, however the boy we have found to play this part is perfect! I look forward to the production forming!

Drama - Idea One
Our first idea as a group consisted of three best friends who are currently living the typical "student lifestyle" at University. They all share the same house, which involves topping up the electricity metre when it runs out. It will start with the three of them chilling/relaxing in the living room until suddenly the power cuts out.
From here, the three off them then decide on who has to go to the shop to top up the metre by sensibly playing "rock paper scissors" - again this is something typically that only students would do! So, then the guy who goes chosen makes his way to the shop, but somehow on the way gets distracted/lost by something (this hasn't been confirmed yet) whilst the other two wait patiently back at the house in the dark.
It will flick back between the two at the house and the boy on the "journey" (as the brief stated their had to be a journey) and their will also be a minor comedy element to it for example, the couple who are sat in the dark will light candles and start to play chess to pass the time, then they realise some of the pieces are missing and so they decide to use bits of food like sweets/crisps as the remaining pieces, yet one of the players eats the others etc.
The ending will eventually be the character who went for the metre coming back to the house with something completely different such as a pint of milk and so the problem hasn't been solved at all and then it will suddenly end with one of the characters swearing at the other.
