Family Home: B roll footage of the family going about their day as it visually gets progressively more intense. 

Car: Snippets of conversation between the main characters (the family) that allude to the vaccine coming out and how it’s not doing good.  

*include copy-write free music throughout the duration to convey emotions, especially the feeling of suspense due to the plot*


Character/s:  

Family: Mom, Dad, Daughter, Son 

Mom & Dad of older age in order to establish the effects of the virus on the older generation. 

Daughter & son characters to be in their teen years- in order to get a glimpse of how it effects “students”.  



Actions/s:  

  • - Kids walking around school with masks on socially distanced  

  • - B roll shots of chaos everywhere amongst the characters  

  • - Shots of empty streets and empty stores (or very few people/ interactions going on) 

  • - Family talking in car/ at the dinner table 

  • - Kids at school exchanging worry full looks 




Plotline: The “opening scene” of this film will begin with b roll of kids in a school (shot at our school if possible) going about their day with obvious precautions taking place due to the virus. Such as masks being worn, guards put up at desks, social distancing, etc.  Followed by a scene of the family in a car discussing the current events, and how they’re becoming paranoid. The family then walks into their house to try and calm each other down as the news is playing on tv discussing the virus and how it’s only getting worse. As the opening scene progresses the music becomes more and more intense until it completely cuts out and B roll of empty streets are shown. (to show the aftermath of the virus vaccine.)

Personally, I worked more proficient in a group for many reasons .   F or instance ,  being able to communicate   made  it easier  for   more ideas  to be  brainsto...
