A question has been put before me "Have I forgotten to take my medication this past week?"
A very interesting question at that. For one, I have no medication to take. For two, most meds take more than a week to wear off. For three can somone forget something they need not do?
*The rant begins*
Ah nevermind, I'm tired

Well, there's "a date before the end of the year" and there's also "a date before April 26th". The latter one is required for it to be in the film festival, and it's what I am shooting for.
Here is what I have so far: (it does include the part I've already posted)
Black screen Text appears: Once long ago, there was a great evil in the world…
…who was promptly defeated by a handsome hero.
Close-up: Guy in heroic pose
Black screen: Text continues
But it was not destroyed, instead it lingered on through the ages, waiting to be reborn
sensing that its time had again come, it once more took form, to spread it’s evil throughout the world.
Int. Marla’s house
Close up: Blueberry muffin sitting on a counter. Voice in back ground, "hello I’m home"
Shot of door: voice says "Is anybody there? Door opens a crack, eye peers trough
Long shot, zoom in on muffin.
Door opens all the way, Marla walks through, pauses and looks at muffin
Shot over Marla’s shoulder, favoring muffin: Close up: Marla: Marla says: "a muffin?"
Over the muffin shot, favoring Marla: Marla approaches the muffin, stops, looking down at the muffin. Rack focus brings muffin into foreground.
Close up of Marla’s face with a quizzical expression.
Close up of muffin: overlapped voice-overs whispering: "Eat the muffin" "Blueberry muffin" "Tasty blueberry muffin" "Muffin" "Muffin!"
Cut between Close Up of Marla’s face, and close up of muffin, which looms larger each time. Whispering in background continues.
Close up Marla’s face, mouth opens, as if in restrained desire.
Hand reaches toward muffin.
Close up: Marla takes piece of muffin to her mouth and eats it.
Sound stops
Low angle shot, of Marla and muffin, favoring muffin.
Close up of Marla’s face with a blank half-dazed look to it.
Close up of Muffin: Booming voice says "you have eaten from the forbidden muffin and are now my slave"
Cut to close up of Marla’s face: Marla stares with a dazed expression for a few seconds, and then snaps out of it, with an evil grin.
Scene: LAHS Campus
Shot: of LAHS sign.
Shot: of Library
Shot: 700 building, bell rings for lunch
Med. Shot: Marla rounding corner of Gym (camera is placed at the corner). She pauses.
Long shot: over the shoulder of Marla, the friend group.
Close up: Marla’s face, tilts head looking quizzical.
Cut: to black screen, text: "Prey"
Med. Shot: Marla turns her head back and asks: "why do I need to find sacrifices?"
Close up: Marla’s backpack, Muffin’s Voice says: "Well, I am an evil demon, I need to have some blood of the innocent." Marla replies: "Innocent…"
Close up: Marla, head turned toward backpack, says: "…where am I going to find that?"
Shot: Friend group, Shannon approaches Alexei saying "Alexei my darling! Why are you running away from me?"
High angle shot: Alexei cowering behind backpack,
Low angle shot: over Alexei’s shoulder, to Shannon. Alexei: "Ahh get away!"
Med. Shot: Shannon (looking offended) talking to Alexei, "You don’t love me, Alexei?!"
Close up, high angle: Shannon’s face, "You Hate me!"
Close up: Alexei, "Ahh, No!"
Close up: Marla, a wry smile spreading, "Perfect" Close up: Shannon, "Then you love me?"
Close up: Alexei’s face, "uhh…"
Long shot from behind: Marla starts walking to friend group. Muffin’s voice: "Excellent"
Long shot from friend group: Marla approaches, in the background Shannon: "You hate me!"
Med. shot: Jeff, "hey, it’s Marla"
Long shot: Marla arriving. Offscreen, Alexei: "Help!, no!"
Long Shot: Marla takes off backpack, Alex: "Hey Marla" , Shannon: "Marla!" , Eleanor: "Hello"
Med. Shot: Marla sets down backpack, "Hello everyone"
Shot of backpack being unzipped, Voice of Muffin: "Do you have any idea how stuffy it is in here?"
Shot of Marla removing Lunch from backpack, picks up muffin to place it back into backpack. Offscreen, Alex’s voice asks: "What kind of Muffin is that?"
Med. Shot: Marla quickly glances back toward Alex, behind her, and replies cautiously: "Blueberry…"
Close up Alex: "Cool, could I…"
Extreme close up: Alex’s lips, Alex: (cont.) "…have some?"
Close up: Marla, her eyes widen, she tenses and putting the muffin into the backpack, she shouts : "No!" simultaneously with the muffin.
Close up: Shannon, looking visibly shocked.
Close up: Jeff, looking puzzled.
Close up: Eleanor, shocked.
Med. Shot: Marla, seeing their reactions, says, "I- I’m not hungry for it now…I’m saving it for after school…"
Close up: of Marla’s face: she glances over out of the corner of her eye, with an evil grin.
Close up: of Alexei, looking over his backpack, with a worried innocent grin.
SCENE: At the bike cages
Long shot: Jeff, Eleanor, Alex, and Shannon next to bike rack.
Med. Shot: Jeff, "Did you notice anything strange about Marla?"
Med. Shot: Shannon, "Yeah, she seemed really tense at lunch."
Med. Shot: Alex, "I’m still hungry…"
Med. Shot: Eleanor, "Why was she being so protective of the muffin?"
Close up: Jeff, "Yeah…what’s up with that muffin?"
<> <> Scene: Not yet completed
Alexei dies in this scene…
<> <> SCENE: Behind Gym.
Long shot: Jeff walking around corner of Gym, as he nears the corner he hears Marla’s voice and pauses. Marla: "…they’re going to notice that Alexei’s gone, I can’t keep lying…"
Close up: Jeff: "Is that Marla?."
Close up: (camera is around the corner) Jeff peers around Corner.
Long shot: Marla is standing talking to the muffin which is situated on her backpack. Marla: "…what do I do if they find out?" Muffin: "If anyone finds out, you’ll just have to eliminate them"
Close up: Jeff, still peering around corner, with a worried expression.
Close up: Muffin, :"Careful, someone saw us!"
Long shot: Marla quickly turns around, Jeff stands up, scared.
Med. Shot: Jeff walking around corner. Jeff, "Oh, Hi Marla,…"
Side shot from Jeff to Marla: "I was just walking by, and I heard you talking to someone."
Close up: Muffin
Med. Shot: Marla, "Oh…that? I-I’m just practicing a monologue
<From here I haven’t gotten the shots worked out>
M: Hey look at the bird!
J: Hmm, where is it? I don’t see any bird.
M: (approaches Jeff w/ spork)
J: (turns around) It must have flown off.
M: Yes, must have…
J: hey look at the time…I’ve really got to go now, I have an important science club meeting today.
M: Oh, Ok… (turns head to side in contemplation.) Wait a minute there’s no meeting today!
M: (turns to face Jeff, but Jeff is gone) Huh?
Muffin: Fool! You let him get away!
M: where did he disappear of to?
J: (after they leave, peers over top of garbage can)
Idea for 2nd to last scene:
Jeff comes running in about the muffin, while alex is talking about cybernetic hamsters. Jeff tells alex that marla’s being controlled by an evil muffin, and alex mutters something about "can’t trust muffins" as Shannon and eleanor come over. Jeff tells them what happened and they relate their suspicions and decide they have to find
Basic Scene outline:
Scene 1: The possession Scene 2: Introduction, Question Scene 3: First blood Scene 4: Second attempt Scene 5: Suspicion Scene 6: Confrontation

"Cut: to black screen, text: "Prey""
Although you probably won't do this, I think it would be really funny if instead of a black screen the view changes to Marla's FOV, except with a Terminator overlay (you know, red tint, random numbers twirling everywhere, "Prey" blinking somewhere).

Wow... Alexei... I was thinking the exact same thing when I read it... obviously then its either a good idea, or its simply a random piece of pop culture ingrained in everybodies head.

Us, of course. Unless we can find lookalikes of ourselves, in which case the budget of the movie would have to be augmented just a wee bit.

Admittedly, there might be delays in filming due to scheduling...but it will get done. A lot of the filming will be done on the school campus, so maybe if you can stay after school on some days. for the "prey" idea, that sounds great, but I believe I lack the technical expertise to do an effect like that. If you could render your assistance on the project, you would earn yourself a special little place in my credits. Actually, any assistance that can be garnered would be greatly appreciated, as I am currently going at this alone. But the film should (at the latest) be done before graduation at the very least, so you needn't fret (too much...).

I do have some experience in Premiere, and I believe that I would be able to do the Terminator overlay if you choose to include it, among some other things.
