plan of action for cool kid campaign

Rachel Ross
Due: June 18, 2007
Intro to mass comm.
Response paper 8 (cool kid campaign strategy)
Characters (as I envision):
Mike plays the suited narrator. Mike can also play the larger guy in the fight.
Jaimee, Emily and I play the drunken girls.
Emily plays cigarette girl
Jaimee will be puke girl
I can be stair/stumble girl
Mark – both the cop and the small kid that gets beat up.
Jason – Kid on cell phone.

Places/people/shooting/etc…
I agree with Jaimee that a college party scene may be our best and most available way to go since it seems more readily available to us at this point in time. Mike has already told us he can provide us with an authentic dorm room, and dorms have both bathrooms and stairs, so all our scenes should work. I also wonder if a campus police officer might be willing to lend his services to us for the police scene (maybe not?) We may also be able to adjust a scene taking into the “R.A.” factor, maybe adding a bit about it in the script; however I do love the script now and find it very amusing; seriously I laughed out loud. I think that since we have the availability now, with no constraints on time we should be able to get this done quickly. I think between Jason and Mike, they can provide us the few props we need and the look of the scenes, we can do this rather authentically as well. If we stick to indoors, lighting as far as scenes go for accuracy we should be fine, the only constraint may be the car scene, but we might be able to find a way around it, possibly. I like the idea of a college party too because of the fact it is more casual wear of clothing and less costume to worry about. I am hoping with the narrator role though, mike will have a suit, but after all he did just go on a job interview, so I’ll hope.
