A Creative Box.
Creating the spark that enables creating a story requires inspiration; creating a box of possible inspirations can help in developing the basis of an idea or story.
Completing this task provides a framework for the collection of a range of objects and materials that could provide that creative inspiration.
This can then be used in two ways; either by collecting all objects and ideas from a group to produce one larger box that anyone can select any ideas from. The second method is to create one smaller box per person that each individual can use as and when they need.
The objects and materials are:
• Two famous paintings that you like or admire.
• A local news story.
• A national news story.
• An international news story.
• A story about someone in your family from either the past or present.
• A dramatic story from you when you were younger.
• Lyrics from a favourite song.
• A strange object you’ve found or a photo of a strange object that someone else has found.
Of course, the possibilities here are endless and it’s encouraged to think of many other possible objects and materials.
With your ideas, mind-map some ideas. Explore and develop key ideas. Mix ideas up. When making notes, consider vital aspects of the film idea such as location, characters, conflicts and key moments.
You should return to class with your collection of objects and at least one developed idea for a possible story.
Use the 5W's to help develop your ideas fully.
Independent learning task. Deadline: Tuesday 4th of Dec
