Emily's Proposal

So for my machinima proposal I thought that I could go off of an encounter film I had to make earlier this year for my visual comm class, but with actual people. In this film, we created an awkward prom encounter showing the two different perspective of both the boy and girl as they are getting ready for their date. In this comedic encounter both are incredibly nervous and practice what they are going to say to one another and when they finally come together they are victims to the usual awkwardness of what to say, should they hug or kiss hello, should they hold hands, and of course the annoying parents who want to take a million pictures and embarress their kids.

Because we are working with Second Life we would be able to make the boy and the girl characters more cartoonish, adding a little more to the comedy of the situation. All that is necessary is the male and female characters, a house for the setting with a bedroom, and a living room with a fireplace or any other typical sort of backdrop for typical prom photos. Also, parent avatars would also have to be created.Props would include hideous clothing, flowers from the boy, and a camera to take pictures with, but also more thought and planning can actually go into this to make it more detailed, but the actual film we did for class turned out pretty well and this post is just a basic overview.
