Sorry bout my english . and thank you

hi lestatbetis.. i would suggest you to try and imagine a story first. if you cannot imagine yourself then go through the short stories online and gather some ideas. i'm studying animation and i learnt about story boarding. i hope you know what story boarding is. we also had to think of a story on a topic 'value' which was as short as 20 secs. so once u think about the story u have to decide on your scenes and make a story board. then it becomes really easy to direct your story. it also depends on how short you need your story.

well i guess you should try to think yourself and create any random story.adding the scenes in between can be done later but at least a start and end can be imagined. good luck and you can get back with the outline of your story.

i do have some examples but it is better if you put your own creativity first. i hope my suggestions help..

ha ha, cool assignment! I like this discussion given by Shivani as well.

There is a lazy way to get through this, but I hesitate to tell you the lazy way, ha ha... all you have to do is look at a few film reviews online. Use the reviews like mad libs, those stories where you change key words to bring about different outcomes.

So, change key words in sections of, say, two different film reviews. A whole new story will emerge.

Of course, another way to go about it will be to not give away any of the story. That way, you don't have to actually know what happens. But if it has to be 5000 words, that is about 18 pages... that is a lot!!! Ao, I guess you will have to come up with some kind of story.

There are lots of reviews online. Choose a real film you want to base your fake film on, and let your fake film go off in a completely different direction.

:-)

thanks a lot. There are a lot reviews on net. but all of them are discussing about the story of the film. and thats the problem in this case. so if i speak about some charachter in film (example Pulp fiction) it is very hard to reconstruct that in my story... but thank you for advices . they are very important in my work. ;P
