My vision for this blogger site is to be the "watcher" of my activities and the activities of others on the web. It will also serve as a "Staging Ground" for ideas in process, perhaps never to be actually completed.
The Anatomy of a Bulletin idea is simple. It would be a video about how one might come up with a bulletin on MySpace. I envision one shot of a guy walking down the street, staring at the ground, deep in thought, in black and white. There would be a shot with a couple guys in front of a chalk board. One guy would be writing down ideas while the other one crosses them out. They seem angry with each other. There would be a shot of a guy asleep in bed who will wake up and write down something in a notebook with a big smile on his face.
Finally after these shots any many others, the last shot will be the guy, possibly looking quite sickly at this point, clicking on "Post Bulletin." End.
I wonder if I should write out these ideas as an actual screenplay. Like this:
TITLE SCREEN - MUSIC STARTS
EXT. STREET - DAY (BLACK AND WHITE)
A man is walking with down an urban street, slightly distressed. He pulls out a pen and scribbles something onto his hand.
INT. CLASSROOM - DAY
Two men are standing around a chalk board. One man writes something on the board and the other man crosses it out. The men argue.
INT. BEDROOM - NIGHT (NIGHT VISION)
A man is sound asleep in his bed. He wakes up, puts on his glasses and grabs a nearby notebook. He writes something in it with a big smile on his face.
MONTAGE
Quick shots of a keyboard, a mouse, a bottle of Ritalin, a can of Red Bull, a man playing with a dog, a flushing toilet, etc.
INT. HOME OFFICE - DAY
The man is sitting at his desk. He looks closely at his screen and finally clicks "Post Bulletin."
THE END
