The 5 scenarios (brainstorming)

Scenario 1: Bullying scene
Joshua gets bullied as he is fat. Leonidas and Ryan will be the bullies. Jewel and Shaine will be the "good guys". The narrator will be Ivan.

Scenarios 2: Left out
Jewel will be left out from group conversations and when the group is hanging out. The others will treat her as if she's transparent.

Scenario 3: Friends who don't understand you
Shaine was late for a meet up. All her friends thought that's she was irresponsible. But something rally cropped up at home and she got scolded for nothing.

Scenario 4: Bad influence
Ivan will be the cool badass gangster. Joshua will be Ivan's lackey. Ryan will be that good kid that was influenced by Ivan.

Scenario 5: Racism
Ryan will be bullied and he starts self mutilating. Leonidas is the bully who laughed and whacked him.

We chose scenario 1: Bullying
Reason:
1. Many people get bullied because they are fat and most of the time, this problem is handled by the teacher but in this scenario, the students handled it themselves.
2. It is to let others know what bullied victims are going through
3. We have the perfect actors for this scenario

Each idea was given by the following people in order: Jewel, Shaine, Ivan, Leonidas, Ivan
