    A potentially good story, but as Richiev said, the logline needs an "or else". ?What's ?at stake for the racist that she must find this family? ?Being a racist, she can't be looking for them out of the goodness of her heart so what's her motive? What's in it for her? ?What does she stand to gain ifRead more

    A potentially good story, but as Richiev said, the logline needs an “or else”. ?What’s ?at stake for the racist that she must find this family? ?Being a racist, she can’t be looking for them out of the goodness of her heart so what’s her motive? What’s in it for her? ?What does she stand to gain if she succeeds, lose if she fails?

    Why do the Gonzo Girls want to document a road trip after the suicide of on of their members? ?What is the cause-and-effect link between the suicide and the road show? ?Are they exploiting the publicity of the suicide ?to enhance their ratings, to advance their own careers and celebrity status? ?If so, that seems callous and selfish, hardly the way to induce an audience to invest their time and money to watch, imho.

    Also, what’s ?at risk in this scenario? ?What are the stake? ?Why should?we care, root for them to succeed?

    And is it realistic that they can air their piece over the objections of the producer? ?Maybe they can pirate a copy of the video to YouTube but if the network opposes it, it isn’t going on air on the network. ?Or is that the producer opposes and the network supports them? ?In any event, so what? ?Again, what’s at stake? ?Why should a ?viewing audience care, want to root for them to succeed?

    What Nir Shelter said: ?make her work for her lunch.

    You raise a good point, Dkpough1, with the example of Superman. ?It illustrates another point about plotting a super hero, male or female. ?If the protagonist has a “super edge”, a super power, that the villain doesn’t, then the hero also needs a vulnerability that the villain can exploit, a potentially fatal one.

    The Greeks intuitively figured out this bit of dramatic gimmickry thousands of years before Superman when they conjured up tall stories of the super hero Achilles. ?Who was invulnerable to attack because as an infant his mother dipped him into the magic waters of the river Styx. ?Invulnerable except where his mother held him during the immersion — his heel. ?Hence, the term Achilles heel. ?And sure enough, that’s how he died in the Trojan War.

    So to heighten her jeopardy, intensify the dramatic suspense, the princess in this story needs either 1] To be matched with a villain with supernatural resources; ?or, 2] Has a potential fatal weakness, ?an “Achilles heel”, that the antagonist knows about and will exploit.; ?or 3] Both.
