An idea of mine would be to make a nonlinear narrative focusing on the life of a student. The piece would depict cause and effect as the main character makes choices along their life and is forced to live with the consequences. Alternative realities of ways an outcome could have possibly turned up will also be a large part of the piece. Films that I see for inspiration would be ones such as Pulp Fiction and Into the Wild.
Good. It's a topic close to home. What kinds of cause and effect scenarios might you use?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love this. I had an English teacher who told us before graduation that "The choices we make today will affect the rest of our lives, no matter how small or insignificant the decision may be." I actually wrote a paper around this very topic last semester.
