I have been trying to come up with ideas so that I can start the groups storyboard, and so far have personally come up with a few ideas:
Idea 1: The idea of the very vintage mime, contrasted with some very modern comedy. I would like to present the mime in very old and aged fashion and looking like a professional. Further into the sketch, I would like to incorperate some comedy value, by making the mime a very poor one. As different characters would try to provoke silent reactions from the mime, the mime would end up talking to each one of them, as if he had forgotten to be a mime or had given up on the idea of being a mime.
The end result of the story would be with the final character (his love interest), following the same pattern the love interest would try talking to the mime, but this time he would not respond orally, and will finally acheieve his goal of becoming a professional mime by acting out his love feelings towards his love interest. Not only is the mime happy for finally becoming professional but he is also happy because he has found his love interest.
Idea 2: The next idea is based on the first, however instead of the mime meeting different people, and struggling to show his emotions, it is a mixture between modern day and vintage. The mime will be given different types of technology and modern day objects, and forced to use these different pieces of equipment. This will also add comedy value to the piece.
