Anyone Want To Play? Logline GROWTH Practice Exercise
Hello All,
I saw someone on Reddit did an AI prompt: pumpkin spice cottage core flower garden and came up with this image. Using only this image, create a logline for a Feature Film. Ready, Set, GROW!
I'll start: (YEP IT'S WAY TOO LONG-BUT A START) As polio ravages a rural West-Michigan town, a mysterious girl dressed as a Dutch milkmaid sells her miraculous Pumpkin Spice Tea door to door, sparking a wave of healing miracles; but an ambitious iron lung inventor will stop at nothing to discredit her and protect his new lucrative invention, threatening to destroy her enchanted home and the magic that has nurtured her for centuries.
The experimenters are not to blame. They calculated the teleportation parameters precisely. It’s just that, at the receiving point, there happened to be a warm manure bed. And the organism — like any reasonable organism — took on the most energy-efficient form.
Now, three professors of mathematical analysis, one engineer, and the institute’s chief accountant are sitting in the soil and communicating as follows:
Rustle-rustle (Morse):
“– · · – · = You idiot, I told you about the diffusion coefficient!”
The experimental time machine consists of two halves: the transmitter over there and the “receiving cabin” over here. A malfunction turns arriving humans into temporary pumpkins, plugged into the root system; the team, communicating in Morse code by rattling their seeds, must repair the equations before the “harvest.”
As the evil sorceress slips away on a secret mission, PUMPKINS slither and crawl around her house, channeling the dark magic of Halloween to seal every entrance.
Inside, SNOW WHITE a prisoner in her own home frantically searches for the Snow Book, the only key to casting the spell that will lead the prince to her.
Libby Wright, thank you — this was unexpectedly delightful! The world is far too serious most of the time, and this little pumpkin festival felt like group therapy with chaos and cinnamon.

THE PUMPKIN EATERS: Alien pumpkins invade Earth to stop a genocide.
They floated down at night.
The seeds.
Grown, they surround the idyllic country cottage.
Home of their enemy.
Vengeful beings from the pumpkin planet with revenge on their mind for loved ones mashed into holiday pies.
"Grandma, grandma, grandma," they whisper.

The pie'd piper of pumpkins picks the perfect place to bake, only to discover AI pies taste crappy because the winter squash is fake.

Ребята, вы все серьезно превзошли самих себя!
Я смеюсь и аплодирую одновременно — низко кланяюсь вам, как в японской драматической сцене.
Вы превратили одно изображение в целый фестиваль фантазии. Браво!

There was no place for the pumpkin in the emojis.
Probably they all flew away into space.

This is so much fun!! I love how one image can spark so many different imagined scenarios. I think we should do this again!
