1st of October Dairy ~ Production meeting ~ Concepts

After talking in class on Friday the 1st of October, as a group we came up with 3 main concepts to take away at the weekend and come back to the group with a few stories each based on our concepts to share in the production meeting.

The themes we created were. . .

'A powerful person who falls' this idea was based on previous idea's and discussions we've had as a group'.

'The egde of this dying romance' an idea of a falling of a romance, ending on one side of a relationship

• Vanity
• Power lost
• Main character as focus
• Twist, secret falling
• Reality shock

• Self harm

• Abstract rep's

The edge of this dying romance

• Relationships
