Silent films have so much class!

     I do not believe that silent films are only of historical interest.  Film is a visual medium, the introduction of sound to filmaking made it easier to convey information and to tell a story through film, but it did not change my opinion silent films.  In silent films the actors are given the chance to show their emotions, while an actor can do the same in a film with sound, it is often harder in a situation where the charatcters of the film can just say their emotions out loud.  It may be hard to acomplish, but a lot more information can be conveyed to an audience through visuals only, a classic example of this is the opening sequence to Star Wars episode IV, all the information the audience needs is given through visuals only, the oposite of this is when the information is given with nothing but dialogue, like in Star Wars episode I, it is very hard to keep the audience's atention when the dialogue is this boring, movies done this way usualy have short and slopy dialogue that is fluctuated by seizure inducing action sequences.  Silent films can still be succeful to this day, in 2005 a silent film was released, which told the classic lovecraftian tale ''The Call Of Cthulhu'', this film curently has a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which proves that even to this day silent films can and will be succeful.

Priceless.

16 and Paranormal 

         The show will be directed towards boys and girls between the ages of 10 and 13. This is an appropriate audience because they are easy to target, they are gullible causing them to be initially attracted to the show but they have become old enough to have developed an attention span that can last longer than 30 seconds causing them to watch the show regularly, keeping the ratings at steady pace, but they are not likely to change to another show without any hesitation like a child of any other age.

          Crazy people are entertaining. Whether you feel pity for them, or laugh at them.  People are curious to see crazy people do crazy things.  Add in a bit of editing and melodrama and you have got yourself an instant reality show.

          The characters will be different every episode but they will all be molded into certain archetypes. These archetypes will include the main focus of the stories (the crazy person), the person who yells a lot (YELLING IS DRAMA!), the person who is always irritated about something, the idiot, and many more. Negative features resonate in the minds of people more freely and this is why every character is defined by their vices.

          The show will be a small part of the life of every character involved in the episode. The audience will be shown different problems the characters face in a daily basis, and how they react to them, the audience will also be shown the characters by themselves expressing their opinions on the current situation and what they think of the other characters.

           The show will take place in a high school, this is attractive to the audience because pre-teens have not yet experienced high school yet so they will not be able to differentiate between what is real and what is not, they also aspire to go to high school and are attracted to the idea.

           There is no goal or prize in this show.  This may not be enticing to certain viewers but it allows the show to evolve with broader range of characters and with more flexibility.  This is also according to the audience; pre-teens are not typically interested in shows of that particular style.

           We have all seen reality shows that portray people with a specific mental ailment, such as hoarders or intervention.  The thing that sets this show apart from all others is that it is a much broader topic and has more room to go in different directions, and more importantly, the direction audiences are going to want from watching this show.
