I don't know if I can get an arena, I lucked out with the school and it doesn't have a playground.  the only 2 locations I have are a house and a highschool.  I just talked with the person who is going to be my producer and he came up with the idea of a teen who commits suicide at school, like that pearl jam video Jeremy, I thought that was kind of an interesting idea.  if you think that is a topic you would like to deal with let me know.

What about a Documentary style short which allows to to use the school and the house to their full potential.

Sure it's not exactly what you had in mind but it can be about a boy who killed himself.

What is the Pearl Jam video thing? I like the band just never seen this video or looked into the band much. Maybe it's a good idea, if I knew what it was.

the song is called "Jeremy", it's a really good video

and how do you mean documentary style short, that does sound very interesting.

I watched a bit of that Jeremy video on youtube.

You could do it two ways, 1. the kid who eventually kills himself could walk around the school all the time following his friends and even those who hate him. He could document bullying and all the bad things/good things that go on during the school. Depending on how many people you can get he can show his abusive parents who are alcoholics and finally end it with him filming his own demise. (Powerful shit, you know?) 2. It could be about a guy who cared so much after reading the story on the news he wanted to delve into the reasons this kid did this to himself.

It's what I do, just keep posting ideas until one sticks. I'm like a Donkey, I may smell and I may crap everywhere but eventually I do something right.

If you write it I can always read it for you and help you out the best I can.

Try to disregard that donkey comment.

Thank you so much Wes.

A member here has offered to write a script for me(much more respected and well liked than myself), but I'm sure the more imput the better.

I would love to post the film here once it is finished so everyone can see.  I'm much better with the camera than I am with the pen.

thanks again so much

I just wanted to thank Mike Shelton for writting a great script for me, I think this will turn out quite well.  It's a lot darker than most of his scripts, but still has that Mike Shelton touch to it.  Thanks again

No, I was just messing around.

It was no trouble at all, and I look forward to seeing the finished product.
