Story: Sleeping Beauty
The story I chose is Sleeping Beauty. I chose this story because I wanted to choose a story tied to childhood and put a disturbing twist on it. Though, I feel as though the story of Sleeping Beauty is quite dark on its own if you think about it for long enough. The moment that I am going to focus on is after Aurora is already under the curse and is asleep. However, I plan to mix the spinning wheel with this moment as well. This moment is significant because it is the falling action. Aurora has just touched the spindle of the spinning wheel and is now cursed to sleep forever. Though Sleeping Beauty has a happy ending I want to focus on the reality that the curse could have instilled had it not been broken. I plan to do this by focusing on the bed she slept in hinting at a reality where she never does wake up. By taking and mixing the moments of the spinning wheel with the moments where she is asleep I plan to bring my vision to life. Getting the message across of how the story could have potentially ended a bit differently.
