The Concept

My project will place the user in control of someone’s actions using video. I want to create it using a story with multiple endings. This story will be based around the idea that the choices you make affect those around you.

I wish to do this by splitting the video into parts and adding interactive menus to allow the user to choose what happens next and to think about it before they choose. While the user is making the choice through the use of audio and animated effects I will display the conscience of the person in the story this will push forward the idea of think before you do.

I would also like to create a web based environment where users can upload and create videos with multiple endings also.

I think this is a great idea in that if can give people a chance to show how they see things and the choices they had when they were in that type of situation and with those choices what you would have done differently and what they believe would have happen if they made that other choice or it can be based on a completely fictional story. My target audience will be quite unique in that tell will be two separate groups. The first being the curious user who will be there solely to view others work and the creative and expressive who will use the application to its full.

I hope to have a fully functional multimedia site used by many users and myself that I can be proud of.

Basic Idea

My project will place the user in control of a persons conscience.
The user will be giving a chose of good and bad options with a audio of what that person might be thinking.
The story will have one starting point but based on your choses there will be a total of 9 endings
ranging from very good to very bad.
There maybe some animation to display the persons imagination or hallucination.
More to come later :D
