Need some ideas!

Discussion in 'General' started by Dark_Angers, Dec 5, 2006.

  1. I need to make a 3min short for film class about anything. Problem is I got no ideas:(. If any of you got good ideas post them. If I end up using it u will get +rep:D (no porn, or smoking related)
     
  2. The 9/11 conspiracy (dont know if your into that or not)

    Something to do w/ hemp (idk if that qualifies as "smoking related")
     
  3. seeing as its that time of year why not something holiday related
     
  4. Do like a montage, either like your daily routine played to music maybe add some sarcastic comedy in the mix, or do a fake info mercial or something

    idk , id try to do something funnny since its only 3 min
     
  5. how about "a day in the life of Joe Schmoe" and just have a little stick figure guy living his stick figure lifestyle.:p
     

  6. LOL that could be good, but it has to be pulled off right, which is hard to do.hmmmm....

    Keep them coming this is good.:D
     
  7. how about a simpsons classic "man hit in nuts with football". Or maybe something really cool, I see your thing says true asian, why not something of your heritage. Try showing some wicked martial arts, with some decent music.
    Or if your the artful type, something in a cherry blossom field. Possibly go Hero and go martial arts in a cherryblossom field.
     

  8. That would be great, but there are no cherry blossom fields in NYC:p

    Martial arts are always fun, just got to find ppl who can do them well;)


    so ideas I like so far

    Stick man
    Hero/Asian theme
     
  9. You should just find 1 or 2 second clips of the most fucked up shit you can find and mash them all together. Kind of like the video from "The Ring."

    You might fail the class, but it would be totally worth it to see everyones reaction :)
     
  10. make it like a thing where there's a hidden message. i did a cartoon for art class about some kids that went to a park and rode a marry-go-round (not a big one but one of the smaller ones that you hold on to a bar and someone spins you around) and they all went on and ended up being hella dizzy and walked around their neightborhood looking like idiots (since i couldn't do anything drug related, i had to be creative and sneaky). anyways i got a 100% on it. just thought you might want to use it.
     
  11. ideas eh...

    here's a few...



    a boy awakens where the dream he was just in, has manifested into his reality... whatever that may have been... alien worlds, super hero abilities, etc.


    a legalisation piece...
    a comparison between a bunch of drinkers with their associated problems (inc death) and a bunch of tokers and their associated problems (including spilt bongwater).

    or check out http://www.active-remedy.org.uk for even bigger ideas.

    you are going for better than top grades right? going for the best fucking piece they've ever seen right? anything less isnt worth doing and you should quit if you're setting your sights to just average.


    i like bleezi kings hidden message idea.

    make it so they outlaw / prohibit carrots, and there's a black market carrot underground. "Hey man, are you sure these are organic?" "yeah man, primo organic samurai carrots" "I thought samurai carrots were red?" "Hey look man, do you want em or not... you cant expect the same quality controls as in a regulated market" :D n so on.
     
  12. LOL I think I might do this one. I can't stop laughing at carrots.:hello:
     
  13. I would call it "Beachball". It would be full of potent imagery and deep mystical messages, but basically runs like this...

    Somone buys a beachball, or just picks it up to buy it, and then drops it. Oops! Then we follow the beachball as it bounces off down the hill, being chased by our hero. Our hero could be a child or an adult, depending on what you want to convey.

    The beachball passes and creates many scenes; there's a wide-open scope here; it could cause calamity, inspire art, bring people together, cause "accidents", all these things; whatever you like.

    Eventually, it bounces off, and rolls onto a beach.

    Then it could sail off to sea with our hero standing at the water's edge in the sunset, or bring our hero to some cosmic meeting, a girl, or whatever. The ending is all yours! There could even be another beachball waiting! :p

    -mu

    ps. closing credits must include "concept by Mr. Underperson". jk ;)
     
  14. Make a bomb (so many easy ways, check totse.org i think it is) video it blowing up and slow it down so it takes up 3 minutes. Fire and explosions are so cool in slow motion. Thats if you want to do something fun. If you want a good grade, I like the hidden message or beach ball idea. Or you could do a 3 minute video proving wrong the common anti-weed propaganda thats out there.
     
  15. do a day in the life of a hippy....with stick figures!!!
     
  16. I remember making a vid for a class one day where I did it on Marijuana. I put the song White Rabbit playing, and I had pics come up that matched the song at the right time with the words. It was pretty sweet. How about a day in the life of a homless person? XD. But if it could be drug related - why not do it on the negative/positive affects of Marijuana on somebody's life?
