Gorilla Warfare 5 W's & Pipeline

Hey Guys and Gals;

Here are the notes from our meeting today. Thanks goes out to Allison for keeping record - and PROPS to Elton on coming up with the Epic film name.


Who: Protagonist: Ape/Gorilla
Antagonist: Self

What: Internal conflict - fighting whats forced upon him with the want/need to be back in natural habitat.
(man vs self) ignorance/awareness

External conflict: war
Humans control - on mission (sets off flashbacks)

Where: Natural habitat (jungle)
City

When: Start in jungle as soldier - then flashback
Time limit.

Why: Clear jungle for land
Save humans from being killed (sacrifice for mankind)
Gorilla vs. gorilla
Every time he does something wrong it causes flashbacks
---> sees (natural) baby gorilla crying --> flashback
---> torn from own family

How: Flashback --> Scientist
While fighting runs into another gorilla (mate?)
Transmission weakens/short circuit
Gives up weapon

------------------------------------------------

Also, here are a few idears on the premise based off what I was trying to say in the meeting....

one must walk their own path rather than one set out for you.

sometimes one must be true to themselves rather be what is expected of them.

one must break away from the mold to be themselves.
--------------------------------------------

And finally, here is the Pipeline that Allison took down for us - once again thanks to Allison for her help!



That's all for now folks - later daze!

I think the premise is re-discovering free will? but whatever, we've got an actual story, this is exciting! *_*

thanks for posting the stuff up, very clear.
