This week I have been working on ideas and such for Richard's Mondays class, after a full week of trying to come up with ideas, I love the fact I seem to come up with better ideas at the last possible moment. I have been reading the book 'Save the Cat' the how to write a screenplay book. Its an interesting read, but most of it seems to be common sense, such as your premis has to be clear and concise so people know what the movie is about. Duh? comes to mind.
I'm looking forward to going back to Richard's class tomorrow and hope he likes me idea's, theres not alot but its not about quantity but quality. Well at-least thats what I keep telling myself, I hope its true in this case. I have been going in circles as I come up with what I think is a good idea then realise its already been done ten times over. I have been trying my best to incorporate zombies into my ideas, just because I want to make a movie with zombies in them but they just don't ever seem to fit. I will just include a random zombie at some point in the background having a cup of tea or something!

It should be zombies, AT NIGHT! Just so we can get a night shoot but obviously, the story and characters should come first. Like you I seem to struggle with ideas most of the time and I'm finding it harder and harder not to retread other ideas.
