Apocalyptic Vehicle Ideas

09/10/20 - Week 1

Step 1: Idea

a. The apocalypse - 1990s India, India seemed to be going up in the world especially economically, the calmer nature of the country at the time doesn't prepare them for a huge earthquake + tsunami that destroys and floods most of the planet. From this, lots of chemicals + nuclear waste is poured into the vast oceans, creating ravenous sharks that will eat anything they can get their teeth on, no matter how difficult.

b. Horde - Ravenous sharks, they have no limit on their appetite and rule the ocean, can be killed easily, but are very powerful, fast & travel in groups. Blood can cause attraction.

c. Vehicle - Motorcycle scooters - bajaj super, with modifications. Has to be able to travel through shallow water quickly & be able to catch food, whilst also being protective.

d. Survival - There's not enough good land to grow a large amount of crops, though fish is still scarce, it is one of the only options. Home must be up high where there is no water and no availability for the sharks to be attracted.

e. Style - Realism, mixture of the colourful nature of India whilst also being toned down & dreary

f. Story -

i. Who is driving? - A previous family man, he must provide for him and his son, nothing can stop him from trying

ii. What are they driving? - A motorcycle scooter that can get through the water quickly, lots of spikes to try to avoid the sharks and fishing equipment to try to get food

iii. Where in the world are they driving? - Central India

iiii. When are they driving? - 1990s

iiiii. Why are they driving? - To obtain food and resources, anything to survive

g. Vulnerability - Not finding enough food, running out of gas whilst in the ocean, sharks biting through the vehicle itself, fishing can cause the driver to be vulnerable as they would be more out in the open.
