Hello all,

Been too busy to type, and still have some difficulty getting on the site from home.

Anyhow, I should've had my film script completed by now, planned on it, but I don't. Haven't even started. So, just curious.

Anybody have any decent ideas for a short film? The running time won't be longer than 30-40 minutes probably. It takes about 5-8 hours to edit every minute of film. I do have other classes and there just aren't enough hours in the day for a longer film right now.

Please let me have any ideas you may have.

mmmm what about a dude who is in the school roof and is going to kill himself by jumping off, you could show the development of a friendship of him and another guy who is trying to talk him down. Both have similar upbringings, the helper took the good way and the suicide attempter took the bad way, to illustrate how people can react to the same lifestyle.
Just an idea,is easy to edit and cheap to make. :cool:

How about some excessive cumpulsive who always has to be in eye-sight of is cell phone. Make sure the damn thing hardly ever rings. And the phone must be gold colored. Have this cat talk to himself thru the phone at places like museums, art galleries and the like. Get in some sneak shots of artwork and architecture. (Always a plus). The ending probably doesn't need to be very important. Have him meet a girl, get a new phone, it doesn't matter. I smell sundance baby... ;)
