Inspiration Week: lesson 1

In this lesson we are starting to gather ideas from different sources. By doing this will make it easier for us to come up with an idea and learn different ways in which we can get inspiration. As short films are so broad and there is not a specific length they have to be, it is going to be a lot more difficult coming up with an idea as you can literally do anything.

In this first lesson we came up with ideas as a class as what makes a narrative. Here are the ideas:

• beginning, middle, end.
• fairy-tales from your childhood
  
• books
• fables
• tribal stories
• legends
• myths 
• plots
• characters
• a series of events 
• stories that have been past down through generations
• something we ourselves can make up
• imagination
• deeper meaning
• once upon a time
• cultures
