Here's details on the proposed Web Series regarding the Premise and what it will require.
Decrepit Community Ed (This is just a working title).
The premise - A soap opera style satire depicting numerous efforts between multiple groups regarding a pair of old decrepit closed schools and want to do with them and there is some good unrelated subplots. The idea for this was actually inspired by actual failed attempts to renovate (Waste of money) and reopen two closed elementary schools (As middle schools) in the school district that I live in but fortunately the plans to renovate ultimately got scuttled after a School Board member that supported renovations dropped over dead and was eventually replaced (Appointed by a Common Pleas judge) by a vocal opponent of the proposed attempts to renovate those schools which ended up (After the previous municipal election guaranteed a majority that opposed renovations in favor of building new) being completely auctioned off and sold altogether.
The structure of each episode - Each episode will run from 30 to 60 minutes.
The groups of characters.
The opponents of proposed renovations - Multiple groups of Individuals who opposed the proposed renovations to the closed schools or reasons of student health and safety and some municipalities who oppose the proposed renovations to the closed schools are looking to permanently Secede from the school district to avoid the reality of the students who live in its respective boundaries from attending the schools the inferior supporters want to reopen.
The supporters of the proposed renovations - Multiple groups of Individuals who support the proposed renovations to the closed schools led by an inferior mayor of a municipality where one of the closed schools are located.
The good unrelated subplots.
Subplot # 1 - A unrelated shoot a an unrelated gun club forces the rivalries between two gun clubs (Which is completely instigated by a couple that’s living in a Travel Trailer or Truck Camper that’s located on several acres of property partially littered with junk) to end up proposing a set of shootout competitions to take place at a neutral gun club who does have a trap range that does not follow ATA specs and allows alcoholic beverages to be consumed on their property.
What Decrepit Community Ed Needs
