Idea

On the 9th October, we had 40 minutes to think of various ideas to make a VT item that we were individually scripting, storyboarding, filming and editing a 30 second to 2 minute Halloween clip for Horror News.

We did a mind map of all the characters, objects and things to do on Halloween this were to help us on our ideas and be able to expand on these and create a short story. 

I didn't come up with many ideas at the beginning but I had a rough idea of a flash mob of people dressed in Halloween costumes such as Witches, Vampires etc dancing to thriller.

For another idea I got some inspiration from basing it round the idea of York Maze and with characters like clowns with chainsaws but I didn't feel I could develop this idea. 

Another idea were about a drunk witch that I thought would be funny but it could be rather complicated to make the story to how I pictured it.

We then got into our groups and discussed our ideas with each other but I didn't have a good enough idea that I felt I wanted to work further with. so I went home and came up with the idea of a person that were bit by dracula then turned into some other Halloween character or object I thought I would be able to make this easy and that it would have a comedy element to it.

My VT item will fit into one of these stories and my other group members will slot into the others.
