i'm starting to doubt.
i see my classmates shooting off their stories without much thought.
their 3 act structure, the conflict, the suspense, the turning point, the lowest point.
and me
i am struggling.
my second act has always this risk of becoming too thin.
people start with a logline. the character. the struggle.
me?
THE THEME.
THE DAMN THEME.
and it has become such a habit...its hard to change. or rather. i still don't see a need t change.
i think of epic stories when actually all i wanted to do is DRAMA.
drama dont sell.
american beauty did.
how about that?
i'm not saying mine is like american beauty but if that drama sells,
drama has an audience afterall.
okay fantasy drama, thriller drama, action drama.
sigh.
i am going further with my epic scifi story but yet a part of me...doesnt like what i am writing.
this project is suppose to be viable.
its suppose to be a live project.
and my film now.
its a 35 million dollar film as quoted by joanna.
how is it possible.
screw senior project.
i wish i'm still a junior.
