Final Film Idea
We finally settled on the Fox and the Crow fable.
We will be modernizing it by changing the characters:
Crow- will be changed into a fashionable girl, who dresses in very up to date, preppy, flashy clothes. She is very pretty, and attractive, with lots of self confidence
Fox- A sly scammer from a modelling agency.

and example piece of dialogue :
" how gloss your boots, how sharp your sunglasses, i feel your purse must surpass that of other woman, just as your dress does; let me see about it at one glance from you , that i mayg reet you as the queen of fashion"
In order to extend the storyline, we will be adding additional character(s) who try to warn her of the scam, however she ignores them.
Also we will try and set up the story by introducing the crow with many close ups and flashy edits, and try to replicate a catwalk tone. to highlight her fashion consious image.

Final Film
So far we have decided on our roles.
Director: Me
Camera man: Winston
Editor: Su li
other roles will be shared out...
Our original idea was to modernize a Lotr style adventure..however we realised that our idea would be very difficult to be created on screen as it would require many actors and many locations and also a longer film time.
We settled on a new theme about Fables. We are aiming to reference a fable by modernizing it, but keeping the backbone of the story the same, especially the moral of the story.
Today we finalized on a few fables or stories. They were:
- Goldilocks
-The fox and the crow
- the hare and the tortoise.
