I'm in pre-production of my newest movie called Vampire High. It's about these two vampires who look about 15 or 16. The protagonist is a girl named Jessica while the antagonist is a girl named Melanie. Through the whole movie they have little arguments about Jessica's hold on humanity and Melanie's embrace of her vampiric nature. Jessica still goes to school though she's 65 years-old (in my movie, the older a vampire gets the harsher sunlight is to it;Melanie is 220--you do the math) and she falls for the main actor: Carter. A relationship develops while Melanie and another vampire, Aiden (Melanie's sire, who has survived in the sunlight with heavy suntan lotion)
I took a bunch of little parts from T.V. shows and books, and movies to create my vampires and fighting scenes. Jessica being able to go in the sunlight comes from a book called Shattered Mirror. And Buffy, like one character dies from a vengeful vampire named Jenny in my movie. And Jenny Calendar was killed by Angelus. And in the fighting scenes, they fight with staffs, and it's choreographed like Star Wars: Phantom Menace (Darth Maul's double sided lightsaber) and Angel's third season pilot "Heartthrob".
I know it's copying, but it's my first actual movie that's actually going into shooting and I couldn't write something really original.
Anyone else thinks it's a good movie?
