Preliminary task – Story Proposal

Premise: The continuing arguments and stress between three girls at work.

Narrative: HANNAH is beginning to get stressed out LEANNE because she cannot work with ELLIE. She finds ELLIE two faced, hard to work with and lazy. HANNAH then frantically rants to LEANNE about her inability to work with ELLIE, and tries to get LEANNE to guess what ELLIE has done this time. HANNAH comes running up the stairs and bangs open the door, as she approaches LEANNE she has complete shock on her face, but LEANNE already knows what HANNAH is about to say. They both begin to talk about ELLIE when the conversation between HANNAH and LEANNE is left on LEANNE telling HANNAH what ELLIE is doing is typical.

Theme: HANNAH’s problems arise when she doesn’t learn to accept ELLIE and the fact that people in the work place are different and they all have different ways of working rather than talking about her behind her back and causing more problems and stress for herself.

Format: a 30second introduction clip to AS media blogging and to be shown on everyone in the groups’ blogs.

Tone: The short clip is set at mid day in the classroom and aims to show the audience that HANNAH and LEANNE are talking about ELLIE and all the bad things she does (one example being two faced) but they’re two faced themselves by talking about behind her back. Moral of the story is two wrongs don’t make a right.

Character: Young woman aged around mid to late teens and should be quite girly and confrontational rather than being shy and hiding away. HG
