Hi everyone... its been a while since i was on here. so here's the concept:
In the future, people will be able to record and store as information everything that they experience through their brain. Experiences are recorded, stored, and upload to a computer. At first this is done to keep memory of things, a first date, a funny trip, etc... with time, people begin using it with social media, and so some become online celebrities, having a 24/7 live stream of what they are doing, eating, experiencing.
So the main character, Martin, becomes one of these celebrities, with thousands of fans following his feed ( I guess he should be someone pretty interesting, hmm).
Now, At some point, and for some reason, somebody decides to frame Martin for murder. Via his live feed, Martin’s fans and the authorities can see him committing the murder, but he has no memory of the event in his own mind and so he knows that it didn’t really happen.
The actual chase elements of the story could be very interesting and would have room for a lot of creativity. Unable to turn off his live feed, the police would be able to see every move Martin makes from his own viewpoint, and that would make hiding very difficult. This is where the one minute delay in transmission comes in. Maybe the delay was intended for censorship purposes, or maybe it’s just a technical limitation. Either way, Martin could use it to his advantage, setting traps and misleading his pursuers.
Another advantage that Martin has are his loyal fans. While most of the fans would turn against him, some are sure to take his side. He would be able to protest his innocence via his live feed, turning public opinion in his favor, although the authorities would surely shut down the feed once that starts happening. How could his fans help him? In lots if ways. For example, they could blindfold him and take him to a safe-house. Blindfolding would mean that the police wouldn’t be able to follow, but that Martin would have to put his trust in complete strangers – a gripping dilemma.
ok. trouble im having is with the ending. They why? Who would do this to him and how would you resolve it?
The obvious explanation is simply that the murderer found a way to switch his own feed with Martin, freeing himself of suspicion
Any movies that come to mind with this? Minority report is the closest i can think of. Any ideas would be welcome!
