Hey all. I'm wanting to do what I think is a fairly unique movie short but am having trouble. My idea is to do short about a modern day detective on the hunt for a killer but the killer is an otherworldly creature.
I live in one of the oldest towns in Louisiana and thought it would be cool if i could set up an alternate history for the town. My only problem would be trying to explain it all in the time frame I'm wanting to stay in. I'm wanting it to run about 10 minutes divided into 3 separate scenes.
The first would be the opening where I would like to open with an inner monologue from the main character detailing what has been happening as well as a history for the town and meeting a contact who would give him information.
The second would be researching the creature and its history.
The third would be meeting the contact again only to discover that the creature has killed him and assumed his form.
So what do you guys think? Am I dreaming to big for a 10 minute short?
