Dear EA,
Imagine having the ability to
completely control your world and potentially even those in it. We
want to introduce your company to the idea of the future, or maybe
even the past. Our new video game concept allows the player to have
complete control over his or her world.
In the first phase of the game, the
character will create their own world or scenario. They will create
their own country- first choosing a time setting, medieval, modern or
a futuristic space age. They will be able to decide on key resources,
land masses and the basic lay out of their main city.
In the second phase of the game, the
user will create a character persona to interact with their world.
They will then enter their city as a ‘guardian’ figure.
Thereafter, the character will follow a lose plot involving inner and
outer influences. They will fight to protect their nation from
invaders, become an integral force for creating laws and deal with
many of the day to day problems and crimes of their nation.
The users will be presented with a
wide array of choices in every situation. Their actions, selfless,
selfish or somewhere in between will materially alter their world as
time goes on. They will be directly responsible for the success or
failure of their civilization. The happiness of their people will be
under their control, but also the city. If they do not work to keep
the city safe and profitable, it will decline, crime will increase
and the city will appear shabby. If the character becomes overly
tyrannical, there will be rebellions and radicals to deal with. If
their city is too wealthy and well kept, the character will have to
battle outside forces that are attempting to capitalize on the
situation.
In short, the new video game, Parable,
will allow users to create and protect a utopia, or to take advantage
of a dystopia for their own gain.

Dear
Mrs.
MB
Producer,
We
would
like
to
approach
you
concerning
a
proposal
for
a
new
movie.
The
tentative
title
is
iPocalypse.
The
main
theme
of
the
movie
satirizes
consumerism.
The
government
started
investing
in
various
projects
and
eventually
fell
way
under
debt.
They
turned
to
Apple
for
bailout
money,
and
soon
after,
Apple
took
over
many
aspects
of
the
government,
due
to
their
control
of
the
market.
This
movie
will
take
place
in
a
futuristic
world
that
is
highly
reminiscent
of
today’s
world.
The
culture
is
similar
to
today’s
society,
except
Apple
is
now
in
control.
People
have
lost
personal
freedom
for
personal
protection
from
the
East
Asians,
who
have
lost
billions
of
dollars
in
assets
from
debt
owed
by
the
USA.
One
of
the
many
methods
of
“keeping
the
safety
of
the
citizens
of
the
United
States”
is
the
so-called
iChip,
which
is
implanted
in
the
skull.
Because
consumerism is rampant throughout all ages, from children to the old,
the target demographic will appeal to the majority of people within
capitalist society.
This
project
follows
the
protagonist
George
Huxley,
who
is
hunted
by
the
United
States
for
not
purchasing
an
iChip.
Here’s
the
twist:
when
fleeing
from
the
Apple-funded
military,
he
flees
on
a
jail
broken
iBoat.
When
he
lands
in
East
Asia,
he
finds
that
it
is
run
by Utopian
Google,
who
has
bailed
out
East
Asia’s
toxic
assets
from
the
USA.
This
is
a
sad,
deep
ending,
because
this
shows
that
all
of
humanity
is
inherently
consumerist.
As
George
is
taken
back
to
the
USA,
he
wonders
if
Utopian
Google
will
turn
out
the
same
way
as
Apple.
The
subtitle
of
the
movie, "An
Apple
a
day
keeps
the
doctor
away”,
can
show
us
the
evils of
consumerism.
This
line
is
repeated
by
the
evil
presidential
CEO
as
he
sends
the
military
iBoats
after
George.
The
purpose
of
the
film
is
to
show
how
consumerism
is
bad
for
society.

Ms.
Stephanie Meyer:
After
the success of Twilight and the Host, we believe that your writing
style is ideal for the newest book series that we have created in
order to educate young adults about the dystopian world as well as
create a mainstream media production that can show the importance of
equality. We believe a young adult novel three-part series will be
the ideal format of this, and with your success we will be able to
produce movies in the future. With this, we present to you the pitch
for what we hope will be your next novel series for young women
between 18-35: Riley2322.
In
a dark but sterile future, Riley2322 lives her life in a suburbia
outside of Chicago. Within this series, the children are named with
the first two digits based on their year of birth, and the last two
digits are based on their time of birth (females are always given an
even number, men are odd numbers). They have parental partners and
live in simple housing, always staying within the cities. Outside,
within the wild forests, are the evil monsters that are keeping them
in fear: Genetically Enhanced Vampires. Cameras always watch them,
and if they near the forest, tiny robotic spiders climb out of the
lampposts and attack and kill the people, in order to "protect"
the city so that the Vampires can't find them.
Riley2322
is 17, and at the age of 18, she will be paired with a breeding
partner and sent to Chicago to work. Since she is intelligent, she
is expected to be paired with an unintelligent man in order to
produce "average" offspring. Sam2359 is her best friend
and has become extremely dissatisfied with his life. He believes
that their lives within the city are too controlled and that there
are no Vampires out in the forest. Riley2322 doesn't know what to
think, until one day she sees someone out in the forest and runs out
to try to help her. When Sam2359 arrives, the spiders are already
after Riley2322. He throws himself into the spiders and dies,
leaving Riley2322 to take up the torch and discover the secrets
behind this city. The first thing she must do is find out who the
mysterious woman within the city is, and why is Riley2322 so
attracted to her?
Characters:
- Riley2322 – Protagonist. 17. Intelligent, beautiful, athletic, capable.
- Sam2359 – Best friend. 17. Intelligent, rebellious, handsome, tragic.
- Veronica - The woman from the forest. Vampire. Beautiful and tormented by her past, all she wants is what the Vampires want: Freedom and equality. She falls deeply in love with Riley2322, but the two of them can't be together because of their differences. And who would understand the love of two women in a world that focuses on breeding?
- Lindon1016 – Villain for first novel. She starts out as Riley2322 and Sam2359's mentor, but she turns them in, betraying them to the government. At the end of the first novel, Riley2322 is sent to Chicago in order to allow the second novel to take place in Chicago.
We
hope that you will consider this series, and please don't hesitate to
contact us in the future.
MJ waved over the lead actress, Lucy Liu. Lucy had been chosen for her acting capabilities and the fact that she was lovely and exotic even without makeup (though this had been a problem, and MJ suspected it would be a problem again).
