Musical

It's getting that time of year again to get ready for campus movie fest!........well, actually, no it's not. However, after doing two improved slapstick comedies two years in a row, I feel like its time that I do something more scripted and prepared. I actually believe I am going to do a two song musical. I don't want to give my entire plot idea away already, however, I want to try and do something different than what everyone else is doing.

Basically, I watched the Beatles movie Help recently, and I want to make a five minute film that has that same kind of quirkiness. The basic plot I have thought out right now is a guy and a very studious girl go out on a date. The guy runs into another girl that seems to be his ex-girlfriend. The ex-girlfriend slips something into the studious girl's drink. The girl then has this trippy "dream-sequence" type of thing.

During this "dream-sequence", shots alternate between what the girl is seeing and what is really happened. Inside what the girl is seeing, to songs will be sung to her, one by the x girlfriend taunting her, and by the bartender sings a song to her claiming that her date is into her ex-boyfriend. The short ends with a funny clip of how the character reacts after her dream sequence is over.

I've already wrote both the songs and they seem pretty cool. How do you think this will work? Do you think that it might be interesting? Or do you think that it might be too complicated for a five minute plot.
