initial ideas

 
Nick's idea: short film about a day in a life of a teenage londoner, 24 hours of situations. School life.Home life.love life.
It could start of a the day being brilliant and avarage then through out the day, it gets worse and worse. Much like a short story, from one of my fav writers, which has also been put into a film. IrvinE Welsh's 'The Acid house'.

One of the short, twisted, genius story's include Granton star cause, which popped into my mind, the moment Nick pitched his idea. The way in which this short story is composed, is clever, and if we use Nicks idea, then to take note of this story would be wise. The book had also been turned into a film by Paul McGuigan Which includes 'The granton star cause' Followed by 'A soft touch' then lastly 'The acid house'. The film also featurs some of the Trainspottings cast, which i brought shortly after reading the book. The film unfortunately comes nowhere near the book, or Danny Boyle's 'Trainspotting' however is still done well, and portrays a twisted version of Welsh's sthoughts and disturbed ideas!

This is a just thought of what we may use in our film, which will relate to the sotry line, because of the genre the charater may listen to, or may be exposed to.


This song may be perfect, because she sings about being awake for "24 hours" and she knows she should be asleep, and her life can amount to more, however the temptaion is too strong. Which is exactly what ours film is about.
