Assignment: Imagine you have the opportunity to propose an original idea for a new TV or movie program that is based on current market trends. You will need to research what the popular genres are in either movies or television and write your proposal with the intention of selling a story or format that falls in line with what is currently profitable. The title of this paper should be the name of the movie or TV show you are proposing.
Write a 350- to 700-word proposal directed to either a movie or television producer who might fund your idea. Bear in mind that this is not an academic essay, so you are not writing a student paper about a pitch you want to make but rather the proposal itself.
If a movie, include a story summary of the actions of the characters (not just a tease without an ending) and characters with names and brief information about their personalities). Describe why the story falls in line with what is currently profitable and an analysis discussing how your project reflects current popular entertainment trends and reflects (or not) American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.
If a TV series, describe the characters (names and personalities) and a first episode story action summary complete with an ending, and describe the ongoing format of the series with a description of why it falls in line with what is currently profitable. Include an analysis discussing how your project reflects current popular entertainment trends and reflects (or not) American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.
If you choose to pitch a reality show, describe the premise, location, kinds of participants, and process of the series, and how the program matches current popular entertainment trends and does or does not reflect American cultural values and their influence on social behavior.
Do not propose remakes, revivals, stories, characters, or concepts to which you do not own the rights.
Include an APA cover page. Be sure to spell check and apply grammar, punctuation, and usage notes from your previous papers for maximum credit.
