Script Development of the Film Project "The Idol" and the Series Project "Underwater Homies"

In this work, two projects have been developed for the domestic film market – the project of the Film project "The Idol" and the Series project "Underwater Homies". The dramaturgical parameters for the stories are approved and analyzed, including the definition of the main character, the ensemble of characters, the setting, the genre and the construction of stories based on theoretical material and taking into account the differentiation of the specifics of full-length and serial projects. Scenario packages have been developed: the full-length film package includes a scripted application, a synopsis, and a sequence of project scenes from the first act, and the serial project package is presented in the form of a scripted application, a pilot series script and a serial synopsis. The target audience of the projects and potential customers who may be interested in the projects developed by us have been identified. Since the writing of the final qualifying work went in parallel with the active activity of the author in the industry, the work is provided with real proposals from producers to optimize projects. 12 one-page applications were also developed, which were also required in the author's practical activities: all of them were presented to leading industry representatives at the industrial speed-dating of the Film Institute and may be further developed due to the interest and the contacts acquired at the event. The goals and objectives set at the start of the work were achieved: considering the challenge to the domestic film market and the lack of scripts, two projects were developed in detail, and a scenario portfolio was assembled at the level of 12 one-page applications. Producers and editors of the Russian film industry are already interested in and using the results of this work.
