Story ideas

Trip

Alex is a young man in bed waking up to find himself with a peculiar problem. He can hear a faint buzzing sound in his ear so goes to the bathroom to wash his face and get rid of the buzzing however it continues to become more intense and the character becomes more and more distressed. The bulk of the short film will be spent in the bathroom whilst he is panicking before he eventually collapses in a pool of blood that has seeped from his ears. Alex will then wake up to find he has actually collapsed at a party and the camera will pan across to show some form of drug revealing that the character was actually tripping and it was all nightmare. His eyesight is blurry however he can vaguely make out his friends coming towards him with some sort of device that buzzes like a razor playing a practical joke which shows what he was hearing in the trip. He will then faint again and when his eyes re-open to find blue flashing lights indicating an ambulance and this is where the short film will cut out.

As the train gets closer she becomes more distressed and the light of the train are blurring her vision. As she is at the brink of jumping the scene will cut back to the party where she will be with her friends offering her drugs showing that the story was actually the girls future if she were to take the drugs.
