Story coming to life - Idea

 “Dearest gentle reader,” - Bridgerton 

As I mentioned, it is time to reveal the full idea my group and I have been developing for the past few weeks. We have decided to think a bit out of the box and go with the genre of sci-fi drama. But for now, let's bring the story to life! 

The film opening will focus on only the first 2 minutes of the film, which has one main protagonist whose name is Halley. She is the main focus throughout the film and it is all mainly about her. There is conflict present which contrasts her own conflict throughout her life. The character portrays herself as not caring and is a bit of an introvert since she doesn't try to acknowledge the surroundings and keeps it to herself. Part of her background is that she has gone through hard times with depression and loneliness, which led her to build a not caring personality. This wouldn't be fully revealed but mostly implied during the film's opening due to the way she acts. The purpose behind Halley's name goes within the theme of the film being it a sci-fi it is because of Halley's comet.

The location of the opening would be at a gas station store as Halley is buying some food and going about her regular day. Yet, the day it all starts brings forth a different environment. As she is shown doing her groceries and taking out items it gets to a point that she is shown from the front and people are around her rushing and there is a feeling of anxiety. But, in her case, she is with headphones so Halley doesn't really notice her surroundings and takes notice of what is going on.

While she finishes up doing her groceries, chaos keeps unfolding but no response is shown from Halley. She walks outside of the store and sees a planet that is close to hitting Earth, but she doesn't know that yet. As she sees it, some kind of emotion is seen from her but not so much as a worry, just amazed by what is going on. Then, she goes to her car and turns on the radio and that is when she hears the news that there is a planet that is going to hit Earth and there are about five months left. There is when she shows worry, however, she turns off the radio and puts on the location of where she plans to go... Leaving it there for the opening and wondering... 

What will happen next? 

Later on in the film, she gets to her destination and goes on with her day. Then at a point in the film, she meets someone who contrasts herself being her opposite. That individual is who teaches her the importance of life and helps her go through her issues, which part of them are shown to portray that backstory and the why behind it all. Their journey is followed along until the planet ends up hitting the earth, but the difference is that Halley dies happy as she was able to push through her struggles thanks to the help of the other individual.
