Premise Script v1 by Ollie Thacker on Scribd This is the first iteration of the story for my premise project. At first I thought I would do a story based on making gold, as that was the action my character was doing in my Character Design project. However I thought a pilot episode where the character makes his sidekick character. I'm also considering writing the gold making episode as an additional episode. The reason why is because I'd like to do my project as a pitch in order to get this show made into a real tv show. I definitely know there are some things that need changing, especially since this is the first draft of this script. Also I'm hoping that the writing of the script will help me come up with a name for the show, something which I am struggling with at the moment.
Dear Oliver,
ReplyDeleteLooking at what you’ve done so far I think what you need are more Library resources and more up to date ones. I’ve made some suggestions for further research below:
The Simpsons, Satire, and American Culture - ebook (you may need to log in using your UCA email address and password.
Understanding popular culture (ebook) - Chapter 2 Commodities and Culture
Postmodernism and Popular Culture - Chapter 10 DIFFERENT, YOUTHFUL, SUBJECTIVITIES TOWARDS A CULTURAL SOCIOLOGY OF YOUTH
Watching with the Simpsons television, parody, and intertextuality - print book
Also, do make use of your electronic journal search. I’ve linked to an example search here so you can see what’s available: "the simpsons" satire animation in particular Reading the Ungraspable Double-Codedness of: The Simpsons (click on the article link in the search and then click the green PDF button to download).
If you need anything else, you can reach me via aday7@uca.ac.uk or email gatewayrochester@uca.ac.uk to arrange a tutorial.
Thanks,
Andrew
