Gal from ‘the six - & Leader of the ‘Lucky 7’s - in this story underway 🦎🏴☠️
(possible thinking maybe - haha - of writing an ‘Alternate or Supporting scenario’ - an accomplished swimmer / diver being coached ‘On Location’ re just one of myriad ‘marine stunt shots’ - in specific regard to her PERSONAL SAFETY checkout points.. Why ? Because it’s almost certain I’d ‘Cast for the specific Marine Skills & Certifications - very few if any Professional Actors could be expected ‘to MASTER’ .. in too short a time frame - and these seven Characters are human chameleons at work ON Site blending in or overtaking a scenario with tour de force impudence & cunning.. nothing is real - all is Illusion would seem eh ? .. and stiff shots of Delusion
.. in this case I look forward eagerly to marine stunt artists ideas & performance .. the stunt actors bringing their talent and their ideas into the design & creation.. & evolutions !
This totally aligns to my Budget Dictates & it’s possible Key Character Talent fees are anchored to Specialized Stunt Level Fees (the sort of Talent involved are also going to ‘want in - even if just a ‘fraction of a ‘Point - so would that total be 20%+ of my Production Budget ? Note that Same Total# of days involved re TWO PERSON Camera / Sound Departments & a ‘superPM & ‘super AD - Accoms & Marine Rentals a BIGGIE + local Craft & Valet roles
This Production MUST Travel Upon Over Under In The Water Surfaces ! 🦎🏴☠️🎬 & Can I WRITE - to SHOOT - in TWENTY Days/Nights ? On Location 24 Days ?
This ‘Story Outline’ is really Best Seen as a ‘Live Drama Enactment > performed by a gifted troupe of Stunt performance artists ‘Cast for specific gifted Marine Capabilities - Stated Otherwise - i am ‘writing - not just for the camera & settings - but it’s more like writing for the extreme performance capability - that an equally ‘adept Shooter & Audio Department could capture - on a daily Rehearsal & Shoot Schedule - ‘Read this as Camera & Talent will be working out blocking, coming and goings, water scenes all over the place for the two person Aquatic Camera Team, Steadicam Team of two & additional numerous & mny Drone Cameras - or surveillance cams whenever possible. Please Note ‘DroneMan - another of the Luckies is more than ‘just a Character ie Actor & one of the Seven - Additionally this is an insanely Crucial ‘Writing & Camera’ - ROLE ! He Is Shooting What’s Happening & a remote camera is shooting/recording him and the scenario - he utilizes so many micro drones it’s dizzying & what their cametas ‘see is crucial to the ‘techy side / a ‘hyper look
Again - Keep in Mind - Essentially 95% of this Story happens no more than a football field from the Shoreline including the Waters the Beach & any Building - Drone Shooting is KEY ! Whether Water or Land
ok - here’s a first running start - Let’s ‘see’ her currently as ‘in league with the mysterious islander Quiet .. (see island translation..) as ‘point person of the 6 pack of up n comers’ & veterans in Quiet’s far flung ‘dark’ cadre of Specialized ‘Dark Operatives’
“ACTION ! - she’s caught the fragmented ‘zoom call - confirming all were still ‘at some stage of’ inbound to Providenciales asap, including herself & one of her cadre who has currently just cleared Departure Security & is another veteran of the truly early morning departure zone ‘decent coffee seeking missile.. and both will be seen so.. by Airport Security camera including airborn - plus arrival - included in a secs uptempo montage - total time 60 secs or so
Club Turkoise arrival ensues - she’ll hook up with another of the earliest Lucky 7’s to arrive - they’ll merge imperceptibly with the rest of ‘the Lucky Seven as complete strangers - this aside from Taha who’s already infiltrating the Bone Cay Security & Constraction Camp. She’ll also meet the Park Warden at Little Water Cay on Day Two - plus later that day at Sharkies - & together are an ‘item in no time flat - plus she’s drawn into battle mode with him as they bonded romantically haha - & almost instantly ! - as might 1 or 2 others.. of the ‘Lucky Seven. Is it possible others of the ‘Seven might find romance ?.. haha !
(- choose between an engagement or wedding ring lost during an early scenario & is found later via snorkelling or diving & also establish a Piano from the Plantation Era now in the hands of the ancient voodoo ‘Belonger.. consider the haunting ‘piano notes)
The two of them may also be the two snorkeling after the end of ‘the takedown @ Barracuda Bight - so it’s also natural she can be ‘a lightning rod’ for the camera & story line.. (much of it seen via her eyes ? .. (if anyones’s)
The ‘nightly ‘Radical/PsyOp events on Mangrove Cay .. Whose eyes ‘are what the camera witnesses ? At the same time - that Park Warden sure is ‘INVOLVED’ & has to be !
Surely this aligns with the bonefishing - the mangrove ethic, Conch, Crab & Lobster - hell - He is the Park Warden & would expect him to be the Chief Environmental Advovate ! And she is the world class paddling & swimming athlete at University of Something & of mixed heritage.. lacking ancestry - mainly via ‘happenstance..
Thus will not be noticed immediately or perhaps never that she’s been intentionally deployed by Quiet as well as the ‘belonger elders’ - which implies ‘in the Script she must be interacting or included in Scenarios with those two ‘aligned factions’ .. approx 6 times at the least - and must be ‘written in accordingly’ - so this character is emerging as The KEY voice of the Seven..
(and where is DroneMan ? ok.. he’s soon to be sketched in further here like he is elsewhere in a number of other creative docs here but is already ‘on island & has commenced booby trapping Bone Cay & rehearsing ‘night manoeuvres with his dogs & gear. Quiet’s daughters are chipping in to differing ‘minor missions while extending the private communications network for The Grift as are young island youths ‘light enough to walk upon mangrove .. & quirky shallow tidal flats
This now begs - in some approx order - appearances visually & their Setting & Why ?
We have her - leaving home - travel - arrival - meet & greets with rest of the Lucky Seven - Socializing at the Main Bar & Sharkeys Bar - kayaking next day - meets Warden - they meet again at Sharkeys - socializing / flirting - pre-dinner - but also have her interacting somewhat clandestinely with Quiet and/or Island elders
(this is where the Nightly Island Battles are shocking & dramatic Dark of Night ‘Punctuation’ ! ! ‘Please Note this Story is approx 7-10 Days as well as Nights ! ‘Or think of it as either 10 or 20 ‘chapters accordingly .. or 10 Streaming Series Episodes.. easily carved to fit Required Packaging
So what are her Day Three ‘Scenes ? (Day One = Arrival & Day Two kayaks to Little Water Cay) She’s fully Updated with rest of the Lucky Sevens - Sharkies & becoming an ‘item’ locally - Is fully aware - as is seemingly the entire Island re that first night of Mangrove Cay Assault - and it’s certainly the ‘Talk’ of the Late Social Scene in Leeward - and most of the major Resorts, Restos & Beach Bars.. Rumours Abound at Club Turkoise especially !
Her Night Three - wild shit on Mangrove Cay !
Her Day Four - Workout / Breakfast ‘blur - & we’ll see her next at cocktails or dinner or after
Her Night Four ? is the Warden involved ? Then she is too ! This 4th night is a step above the Night Three psychodrama
Her Day Five - they are ‘hot n heavy’ smitten - ‘partners in crime’ & he is also of course, the local historian as one of distant Belonger heritage but known for local rhythms chants & wails & sensational international ‘covers - for sure Night Five should at least touch on them..
Her Day Six - more Integration with Lucky Seven plus Quiet plus Belongers who are all now ‘acclimatized to DroneMan & his critters .. Night Six ? At least a mention
Her Day Seven ? - she is certainly in the Big Shebang.. as are The Bonefish allies.. And this Night alone is humungous.. the ‘Day’ is more a simmering time.. Beach Volley ?
Her Day Eight - the War is over - Barges & Boats gonzo via ‘master delusion.. and the Resort Consortium already finding Funds Frozen & Mangrove Cay cleared of them
Her Day Nine - the early morning - finding the book ‘True North’ in the coffee machine alcove - (this Scene already sketched out) Real Happy Ending with ‘you know who’ ..
Her Day Ten includes more Happy Ending with Extro Titles
