Project Assignment: Individual

Theme: Loving your grandparents

Story idea: One day, like any other day, Joyce left for school in the morning. Grandma reminded her to be back home by 1pm after school as she would be cooking lunch. After dismissal at 12.45pm, Joyce was asked to join her friend, John, to play at a playground near school. Joyce remembered that Grandma was cooking lunch but decided to follow John. She had a really great time and time flew past. At 3pm, John had to go home. On her way home, an angry Grandma appeared in Joyce’s mind and Joyce quivered in fear of getting scolded. Suddenly, it started to rain without any warning and there’s no sheltered way home. Joyce ran but in her rush, she slipped and fell. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she regretted not listening to Grandma. If she had gone home by 1pm she would not be caught in this rain! However, Grandma came, smiling at her warmly with an umbrella in hand and they went home happily together. In the years to come, Joyce always remembered this day and was always there to offer Grandma an umbrella on rainy days.

Story Title: Love Your Loved Ones
Sketches:












Why it was not chosen in the end:
No actual element of surprise (pure narration of a simple event)
Too slapstick
Boring and lack of action
