A camp without adults

A camp without adults

• Want to keep working on different ideas?
  • Do! :-)
    • Maybe it could make a fun subplot :-)
    • Maybe it will be a fun "random item" :-)
    • Maybe it'll just be fun, or maybe it'll show value in other ways :-)
• Want to work on it at a high level?
  • Go for it! :-)

An idea

But not the idea!

Sizzling start

• War cry
• Drums
• Chaos
• "Camp Anarchy" type sign
• Song

Yes, it is.

Okay, it is.

Survive Alone:

Kids edition

Survive Alone:

Kids edition

• Combining two ideas from creative weekend
  • A camp with no adults, and a Lord of the Flies vibe
  • Reality TV, but without intervention

Survive Alone: Kids edition

• Scene setting item
  • "We're leaving you all alone" - show execs
  • "No adults. Youth led, no support"
  • "The footage will be uploaded automatically every 3 days"
    • "Self filming" (Alone style)

Song about the show

• Context musical

A few items about the show

• Jonathan LaPaglia - junior
  • Neville?
• More intro to the show
• Meet one tribe in their camp
• At least one challenge
  • Establish the competition
  • Could setup a subplot (Romeo and Juliet)

Challenge - plot point

• One of the teams wins
• After the win, they get a reward (food, prizes, something)
• The team notices that the prizes aren't well guarded
• Musical?

Elimination day

• Before the elimination, all the contestants eat in a mess hall
  • Fun different setting to meet more teams
• All the teams start plotting to steal the prizes

Things start falling apart

• Another challenge
• Setup a long running capture the flag
  • It falls apart as the teams start breaking the rules
• We get reality style confessions as tabs items

See the execs talking about the show

• Set up their desires - TV channel not doing well, setting up win at all costs

Further collapse

• Subplots
  • R+J
  • Giant swing exile
    • Cast hanging from set
• Things getting worse
• More plotting by the teams
• The teams raid different places to get tools and become more like gangs
  • Canoe stuff (paddles, life jackets, etc) - pirates
    • They escape and start hijacking random things
  • Bathrooms - squeegee sword, plunger sword, etc

Let's work together

• The teams agree to start working together and share the prizes
• Semi-resolution

Until...

• One of the teams appears to have stolen more than they deserve
• It's actually intruders
  • A patrol of Scouts or Guides?
• The conflict is back, and worse than ever

Dramatic question

• How did everything go so wrong
• How will it be resolved

The show runner subplot

• The executive team had their own sabotage planned
• When they learn about this, there's a moment of fake shock, followed by "this is better than we could've planner for"

Overarching messages

• Competition vs collaboration
