Final Project Ideas

So for my final project, I was thinking about writing a short script to do with a friend, but the more I think about it, I think it would be cool to take a short story like the fairytales from the Brothers Grimm or something and recite it to someone who would be acting as a child/grandchild. Then maybe we could do a scene with a voiceover of me reading the story as a narrator and having me and maybe a few other people act it out. I think I can make that work like the way we did the silent movie by recording the video and then recording the narration separately. Maybe I can take the Little Red Ridinghood story and change it up a bit so instead of a wolf it's a person. I think what I can do is narrate the story as if it was just a fairytale and use examples like the wolf and going to the grandmother's house, all the while the video that will be shown as it is being narrated will be modern and with real people. I think that it will make the message of the tale clearer and also show how my acting skills have improved over the course of the year. It would show how I can change characters from being on one end of the spectrum (being the mother or grandmother and having lived through the experience) to the complete opposite (being the young girl, a.k.a. Little Red Ridinghood and not yet going through something as traumatizing as almost being kidnapped).
