Plot

     For this project I wanted to come up with a plot for the movie this film opening was going into. Personally, I wanted something that would be fun and interesting and not too cliche. At first, I wanted to a typical romcom, but all the ideas were the same quirky girl falls for someone who does not she know she exist and even though there is multiple ways to make the plot unique for this project, but I couldn't think of a plot I wanted to get into.  

    But it did get me into the thought of a coffee shop, which is a typical location in the romance genre, that led to the idea of the protagonist be writer since in media they are usually shown writing in coffee shops. This led my thoughts to the writing concept Kill your darlings, a phrase writers use meaning eliminating any part of your writing — characters, scenes, sentences, side plots — that, while you might love them, don't serve your story, and I knew this was going to be a cool tittle.  

    That's when the lightbulb clicked in my mind for the plot of this movie. A writer who writes character that are chaotic evil and they come to life and she has to go kill them before they cause too much trouble.  

    With this plot I cant wait to explore how to introduce the story in the film opening and imply the magical aspect that would be a theme later in the movie in the first couple minuets.
