Machinima Proposal

Characters:
2 young females

Scenes:
High School
Mall
Bedroom

A rebellious young girl befriends a popular pretty girl in a high school setting and is madeover several times before realizing that she was the happiest and the most comfortable as the person she was before the makeovers.

I envision the young and rebellious girl to have funky hair and clothes and not very many friends. She should be really into a music and art, and reject the social norms presented to her in her high school. The popular and pretty girl should be nice, but highly critical of the young and rebellious girls fashion sense. She thinks that the rebel is beautiful, but that she needs some help. She will take the rebellious girl to the mall and have her change into a variety of different outfits, eventualy having her buy one. The rebellious girl will be happy with the new attention she receives, but she will have a moment of self-realization while in her bedroom that she is pretending to be someone she is not, and that she would rather be disliked for who she is than liked for someone she is not.

This plotline is pretty basic and has taken on several forms in movies. I think that it would make for a nice machinima film because it can be fun, colorful, and use a lot of fun music. Since changing physical appearance in Second Life doesn't require much effort I think that it would be pretty easy to produce this short machinima film.
