Contingency

So we ran into numerous problems with All Hail the Chocolate Dragons, such as:
  • It wasn't funny enough to be a comedy, as making jokes in the format of a trailer is a lot harder than in say, a short film.
  • Characters were too young for it to look like a professional production
  • Locations were not fit for characters, such as every indoor location being too clean looking and overall non-sensical (such as anonymous around a window)
  • The plot itself doesn't naturally fit any genre other than comedy.
Because of this we had changed:
  • The genre of the film as it is now a thriller
  • The tone of the film as now instead of being lighthearted, it is now very dark in tone
  • The plot, as instead of YouTube pranksters doing a big prank on anonymous, a guy's girlfriend is kidnapped and he has to follow orders from two masked people or the girlfriend dies. The guy's actions get worse and worse to the point where he becomes irredeemable by the end of the movie.
