I've got a Laptop! (and update)

Okay, I have a laptop to work with now so I can be more productive when I'm at college. On the Monday I was helping out with the story ideas for both the Dummy group and the Pirates Pruduce group. The idea for the Dummy group has completely changed to a male dummy trying to impress a female dummy with gifts which she rejects one by one. Finally the male dummy cuts out his heart which is made from wood and gives it to her. The storyline ends with the female dummy accepting the heart. I think the idea is simple and strong but I feel that the ending lets it down. I feel there should be a twist or a punch line at the end because the story builds up the audience to a climax.

The Pirates produce idea needs a lot of work and decision making. The main characters which are Pirates do not fit well with the enviroment of a supermarket. The problem is that most people have an idealisation of what a pirate looks like and where they live. Pirate Produce would need at least 30 seconds to a minute to explain why the pirates are in a super market.

The concept work for the dummy group is improving, but we need more. Pirates Produce have a lot of visual research and concept.

My aim this week is to get some concept up for both groups.
