Minor: Step Outline

 

Minor: Step Outline

Working on a step outline so I have a clear idea of what happens when, when I wright the script

Script step outline 2: 

He is not a good partner; he struggles with following simple instruction. You say that like he does not listen to you. Cuts to ranger 1 complaining about how 2 did not listen to the instructions of staying by the controls. An error that has caused both rangers to be stuck on a half built holo bridge held hostage by a small rodent near the controls. 

He cannot be that bad with protocol, which if followed by asking to review one of their previous mission logs. Ranger 2 stands at the exit of a shuttle about to jump and gets questioned about the mission procedure for a simple “Monitor and surveillance” drop. He gives an impassioned speech equal to a war movie plot. 

“He keeps going on about his instincts but in action” 

The 2 rangers are escaping from a breaking up ship and are given 2 options about escape routes. Ranger 2 pulls one down the obviously dangerous route. 

Ranger 2 feels there is no problem with their partnership, with his natural leadership skills he always finds a way around their problems. Ranger 2 is shown moving a rock and uncovering a nest of small lizard like creatures. 

Ranger 2 “doesn’t” brag about how he’s saved 1s life a half Dosen times. even from a Banther that one time. 1’s voice is layered over asking the interviewer who they think caused the attack. Where we see 2 get handed a tube and told not to just hold it. He proceeds to first a rocket at a mountain where we cut to the 2 running from a large creature. 

The interviewer says something about seeing the medal ceremony for those efforts. We see ranger 2 standing with a medal posing for photos and we hear his internal monologue going on about how he is modelling the uniform and he has no idea why he has a medal. 

Ranger 1 asks about how he made it out of the academy and the interviewer answers telling him he was a top candidate, going on the say he scored “one.... hundred.... and nine” where ranger 1 just screams. 

Ranger 2 says how he was born to be a ranger, a symbol of peace in the galaxy. We see him and ranger one talking getting ready for a mission as we see a small creature carrying a large egg turn the corner and get shot by range 2. 1 runs to hold the creature and screams into the sky as we see range 2 talk about how it was going to plant its egg into them. and We cut to a frantic ranger 1 scream into camera “He shot the Krin ambassador” Hes a menace, get a mission drone in here they will tell you. 

The mission robot arrives and goes through mission success rated and survival rates of missions.

The Martian: 3 Act Structure

  Film Review: The Martian Finding how the Martian sits into the broader idea of a 3 Act structure was fairly easy, as its laid out narratively in 3 very clear acts. However deciding what part of the movies where what in terms of inciting incident, mid point and Climax where harder Distinctions. Exposition The First scenes of the movie are full of exposition showing the cast on mars taking samples and carrying out other various scientific experiments. The Title along with the design of the set shows this to be astronauts on mars and sets up the location for most of the movie going forward. Inciting Incident This would be where the rest of the astronauts leave our main character Mark Watney on mars after presuming him dead in a storm. He instead doesn't die and manages to make it to the relative safety of the space habitat where he stops himself from bleeding to death. Before the audience is told about marks plans on how to stay alive fighting the main problem he faces in the whole ...

A Bug's Life: The Hero's Journey Review

  A Bug's Life: The Hero's Journey Review After learning about the hero's journey, I have re-watched a bugs life in an attempt to break it down into the frame work of the hero's journey. The Ordinary world: The ordinary world is the ant colony being oppressed by the grass hopper's. The way of life where they are threatened and bullied into collecting food for the grass hoppers while also collecting food for themselves. The call to adventure: Flik see's a world where the ants can harvest food fast enough that they can feed the grass hoppers while also collecting enough food for themselves. This is in an attempt to relieve the stress that the ants feel when collecting food. The call to adventure is often linked to the themes of the movie. However the main theme is ridding the ants of the grass hoppers instead of this call to just sate the grass hoppers. Refusal of the call: Flik gives up on these ideas and agrees to act like everyone else and collect food in the s...
