Film's Cool - Session Two

The second session of 'Film's Cool' took place in our media room, where again I was introduced to new faces. We had the opportunity to have Jesse O'Mahoney come in and help us develop our ideas. The eastenders writer listened intensively while I shared my idea with him and gave me and my group feedback. He said he thought the idea was great but questioned me behind the thoughts of my central character. We as a group went into discussing the personality type, profession and life problem/s of this chief character. And this individual character's 'want's and need's', as this all becomes important.

As my broad idea is situated on the value of one's life, Jesse made me consider who matters to this person and why they might matter. As it could possibly be that this character discovers the love of life the very moment they discover they're dead.

We then did our Q&A session with Jesse O'Mahoney towards the ending of the session.

The one thing I captured that Jesse mentioned was that we should aim to write our storyline in one sentence, just a couple of words that will sum up everything.
