Edit topic

i like thatt so he has family/financial problems and his best friend? tall, brunette, maybe has like, an ignorant family who doesn't really care abt him, loves to paint + skateboard, wants to be a writer?

mhm!

noice— so the opening scene? any ideas for the vibe

rushed. minorly chaotic and almost but not quite overwhelming

yes you heard right– {que 80's and 90's edits of skateboarders and sunsets}

:) thanks and welcome yall!! (and no one really has to talk in brackets if they dont want to)

(Lol it's comfortable though XD)
I think I should read over this before I attempt to help lol

okey– its still pretty rough and nothing's really set in stone (its all just ~vibes~)

Oh lol, well still good to know what vibes everything is on

what if you did a blip of the climax near the beginning and then go backwards to show how they got there? or the opening scene is from when they were younger?

thats a good idea– maybe they're arguing (with no sound) and then it cuts to them in the past silent, and there are people arguing in the background? idk
(i gtg for a bit but yall keep brainstorming)

Oh- so I saw that you had the note from the movie La La Land, to go off of @MusicElle-is-legally-brunette, you could start with that. Maybe have your characters lock eyes, and the one walks away kinda quickly pulling along their kid/ S/O, having the other one sigh and turn back to whoever they're with (A friend probably) and have the friend give them a concerned look before asking. "What ever happened to you two?"

ooh those are good ideas! maybe it start and end similarly to have a circular ending? like maybe it could start with them sitting on the front porch of one their houses (or have a scene like that near the beginning) and then end with a similar scene, except they're older/younger? (the front porch thing is just a random suggestion, i just think it'd be cool to do something like that)

mhmm so there could be some type of parallels in the beginning and the end? so maybe a simillar location or a place that was important to them?

yeah i think that'd be cool and help tie the story together
