Wally Croft- (Outsider Film Task)

A loner travelling through space and time.
An unknown appearance.
An unknown identity.
Good? Or Bad? Only a name which now strikes fear into the very soul of those evil figures surrounding us all…
WALLY CROFT!!!!
No not, Lara but Wally Croft, a figure which has been created using the admired characters of both fictional worlds of book and video game. Two characters merged together to create superior identity:  A very strange combination but it works.
Wally Croft was created for the purpose of creating a story board with the same plot and theme as the film, ‘Outsider’ ; A hero winds up in a desolated town owned by thugs who strike fear into every soul inhabited there. The hero gets attacked by the thugs and seeks safety in a nearby bar. Bar tender explains of the on-going situation and so the hero again meets with the thugs and partakes in a stand out, resulting in the hero winning the stand-off by shooting at the thugs.
Wally Croft- the hero of my film presents the characteristics of Propp’s theory of stereotypical characters used through visual presentations such as plays and films. Wally Croft is the hero and the soul of the film, the film is initially about Croft’s experiences through the desolate town of Vinnera, who she meets, who she upsets, her mission, her life etc.
Another example of Propp’s  stereotypical characters is the character CBA. A robot drinking companion who then evolves into the characters of Helper, mentor and narrator. CBA brings elements of both genres shown in the film, comedy and Sci-Fi. CBA, again has taken form from the character of ‘Bender’ In ‘Futurerama’, fun loving, alcoholic and drug tolerant.  CBA helps and mentors Croft on her expedition of Vinnera and shows and explains the ways of Vinnera.
Other characters are yet to be decided.
The key theme will be Hyperbole, a society in a universe thousands of miles away, a weirder, wackier , wilder society far away from the respecting elements of our society of today’s world.
A choice to animate would be optional considering a whole new world needs to be created, elements of 2011’s society sadly does not belong in this film.
Genres again consist of Sci-Fi and comedy originating from the two main characters of this short film. The whole theme and setting of this short film would contain features of a Sci-fi genre. Comical elements are again devised by the main character of CBA.
