7 Basic Plots



Pick two of these plot types that most interest you and write about them. Why does each of these plot types interest you? What makes them seem more interesting than the other ones? Which two of the plot lines out of the seven would you like to use for a future video project? Why?

1. Rags to Riches
This interests me because I see the biggest potential for character development in the plot. A character who lives a completely opposite life (in poverty) suddenly changing the lifestyle with wealth, power, and a mate seems to be able to leave room for the character to grow. 

2. Comedy
This interests me because compared to the other plot lines that inevitably create heroic movies, it contains humorous aspects to it. The hint of dramatic conflict in the middle is a nice addition to the otherwise completely light hearted plot.

Of the two, I will most likely use the comedy plot line because the other plot lines require a longer length to develop. It has the most potential to be found in a good student film.
