I unfortunately wasn’t able to attend Monday’s class, however during this time our group thought of a new, more cohesive narrative. It was changed from the original narrative, but with similar concepts and ideas. Our new plot is a spy film, with an agent being sent on a mission to the future. But the comedic twist is that the agent is extremely goofy. She takes her job seriously but her persona is childish. She is very fascinated with aspects of modern life, (as she is from 1964), such as phones, social media, vapes, TikTok dances, google, and more. Our character is based around similar characters in film and television like Buddy the elf (from Elf), Mr Bean, and Johnny English.

On Wednesday’s class we solidified the narrative, as previously we had just a basic outline of the plot. Specifically it was quite difficult to think of ideas for the mission she is being sent on. We want it to be interesting but also not too complicated that it’s unachievable. We ended up solidifying the mission; she is being sent into the future by her Boss to get a list of names of agents that are going to be wrongfully imprisoned in the future, so her Boss can help them hide from the enemies.

During this time we also drafted many ‘vomit drafts’ of the opening scenes. We researched possible locations to film as well, such as some of RMIT’s ‘sci-fi’ looking buildings, outside the state library, federation square and Flinders street station.
