  17. how could you wrap a film and not know what the script is like? disaster..
  18. Awesome. Kev have you got any ideas on how you would like these scenes to look?
  19. Okay here is the concept: The show is called YouTopia. The basic concept is, what would happen if your life ended right now? This happens to 3 people and they all deal with it differently. Where are they? Who is speaking to them? How do they get back? If our life ends now and we go to heaven, which is for eternity, is that what we want? Do we want certainty or uncertainty? I think this gives everyone a chance to take this and put their own imprint it. This allows me to write what I want to write and explore some deeper themes. Right now I'm handing you a canvas with these words which you are free to explore with your own creativity. How Kev edits this could be really interesting, switching between the 3 characters. For the actors you can bring your own ideas to the characters which will govern how they react to the situation. Just remember you've been pulled away from life and you don't know why. There is a twist at the end of the series, but I don't want to reveal that, because these characters don't know what's going on. I've written a draft of the first episode. If you want to throw ideas at me or develop this further have at it. If you got any questions let me know. You can change the characters names. You can come up with concepts as to what the space you are performing would look like. I imagine you'd be performing right at the camera, which is "the voice" Ewan: He is angry as hell, frustrated, misses his wife & son, wants to get back to have a positive effect on their life. Chris: He is scared, but doesn't want to show it. He uses humour as a defence mechanism so is rolling off jokes. He is just at the beginning of his life and has so much ahead of him. He has so much he wants to do in life. He doesn't want to end it here. Adam: He is completely content with dying. He has accepted death. He doesn't want to go back. He has found most of life up to this point disappointing. YouTopia Kev does voiceover, actors react to his voice. 3 characters enter a dream like state, keep it simple. White room or choose a location and act to the camera. ....... Episode 1: The end of the beginning Story by Timothy A. Price Draft 19/07/11 Cast Ewan Alman...............Ewan AJ Blackstock...............Adam Chris Langner ............................Chris Kev Tasker....................Voice Sets Interiors Bedroom 1, Room 1, 2, 3 FADE IN: 1 INT. BEDROOM – LATE NIGHT Ewan lays slumped at a computer, He is half asleep. The computer glows in the dark. YouTube fills up the computer screen. The evolution of dance video is playing. As the Video plays Ewan's head hits the desk. He is asleep. FADE TO: MAIN Titles FADE IN: INT. BRIGHT WHITE ROOM – DAY EWAN slowly gets to his feet and starts bustin a move, halfway through he realises he is no longer in his house, he looks around, shocked. EWAN Wait, where is my son? Where is my Wife? VOICE They are gone. CHRIS wakes up, he reaches out to grab a bottle to take another drink but there is nothing there but air. He looks around, startled. CHRIS Wait, is this still part of my hangover? This… can't be hell. I just watched Rebecca Black's Friday, so I know what hell's like. VOICE You are no longer living. CHRIS Now why does God always have to have a british accent? ADAM wakes up singing Baby, baby, baby ohh like baby, baby, nooo <bieber> ADAM looks around curiously. Where is my fiancé dog? VOICE Your life, is no longer, your life. CHRIS Are you saying heaven is as challenging as life? That's not what I signed up for. ADAM What makes my life, my life? The only thoughts I can hear are my own. I can't hear anyone else's. How do I even know that they even have thoughts? How do I know they exist? CHRIS If my life has ended today l can say I made the most of every chance, every opportunity, every breath, given to me. I hope. Well except for that 90 minutes I spent watching Batman and Robin. EWAN If my life matters to me, my life matters to me. CHRIS You don't find that funny? Damn, dog I'm more offended by your lack of a sense of humour, than pulling me here. Actually you can't offend me more than the vile spawn that post comments on youtube. EWAN I know I can't exist forever, but what is this? Get me the hell out of here. Get, me, out of here. CHRIS I didn't realise God was so sensitive. There has to be an end, there is an end to everything. But why am I stuck here while Charlie Sheen gets to play with the goddesses? VOICE They are all gone. Love yourself. ADAM Well, yeah, I don't need to see her. If my happiness is determined by someone else I am in a lot of trouble. EWAN Everyone needs someone to love them, someone to value them, how else would the human race survive? CHRIS Is this because google wants to own the world, including my mind? Or is this because I was meant to be studying for an exam and I ended up watching youtube videos for 2 hours? Where's some tiger blood when you need it? ADAM The only person who determines my happiness, is me, dog. EWAN becoming increasingly frustrated. Are you saying I don't need my friends, my family, I can just exist like this? This isn't heaven. You are not God. I believe in God. You ain't my god. He wouldn't bring me here. He wouldn't take me away from my family. CHRIS Life is brief. Eternity is forever. I don't think I can get used to this. CHRIS has been joking but at this moment he realises where he is. Uncertainty creeps through him. He is worried. CHRIS Okay, dream over, I'd like to go back to my life now. EWAN Is this a dream… or a nightmare? CHRIS I want to go home, or follow a yellow brick road. I'll take either. EWAN Why are you tormenting me? I can deal with anything in life, ANYTHING! As long as I have my family, and the love of my family. If this is a test, this is not a fair test. You are pushing me too far. EWAN doubles over, the emotional pain rips through his body, through his stomach. He wants to throw up. As he is bent over, he lets out a guttural roar. CHRIS paces back and forth, he is short of breath. He can't breathe and he begins to have a panic attack. CHRIS I'm… I'm enjoying my life. I've got so much more to achieve. I've got so much more...to give. ADAM is extremely zen. I don't have any pain, any hurt, any anxiety, any fear, Anything I need to get out, or let out. It's all resolved. I was completely prepared for life to end at any moment. VOICE You're not surprised? ADAM No I've accepted death. ADAM I've found life pretty disappointing, I always looked forward to heaven. I always wanted life to be fair. I always wanted the decisions I made to count. Maybe they didn't count down there, but I knew they were going to count in heaven. VOICE How do you know you're in heaven? ADAM Well I sure ain't on planet earth. ADAM Pain? I realised pretty early on, you can't run away from pain. You have to confront it, extinguish it. ADAM Everything positive that happened to me was so much more rewarding because I was doing the right thing. I've come to peace with that. I have my own internal form of justice. If my life has ended I know within myself that I had a positive effect on many lives. EWAN realises how angry he is, at that moment he thinks of his wife and child, he curls up in the foetal position in the corner. EWAN I need to go back, my family needs me. ADAM Yesterday I took a dustpan and broom and swept up the crumbs on my carpet, and I'd clean and clean and look down at my work. I was pleased because I could see it was clean. I put the dustpan and broom away and sat down. Suddenly I was looking at the carpet from a different angle, from a new perspective and now I realised I missed a heap of crumbs. Whatever view I have of my life it could never be the absolute truth because it is only my view. I never got to see it from a different angle. VOICE Do you want to go back? CHRIS Back where? Do I still remember this? ADAM No, I'm content with the life I've lived. VOICE If you want to go back, there is a way, but you will have to do something to get there. EWAN I'll do anything, what is it? CHRIS I thought I was dead, and I didn't want to have to tell you this, but I have a grave fear of zombies and I just wouldn't feel comfortable being one. ADAM I don't want to do anything, I'm just going to sit here. ADAM sits on the ground, crosses his legs VOICE If you really want to go back, you can do it, but first, you are going to have to be someone else. EWANS eyes grow wide in surprise. FADE OUT Episode 2: Each character becomes someone else and has to process the pain that they are in..
  20. i'll post it here shortly!! <puts thinking cap on>
