I've been thinking about this weeks dramatic Eastenders storylines and it got me thinking as to what I'd produce if I was in charge of making the teasers. So here is my challenge to you all. Think of dramatic storylines in the near future for any soap and describe what youd do. Since I brough it up I'll start!
Name of Soap:
Eastenders
Teaser:
The Promo would feature a bunch of "dead" daffodils with the words "Revenge is Sweet!"
EDIT: As an after thought, Chrissy could be walking along by the canal holding the dead daffodils!
Teaser:
Tommy standing at his living room window, looking out at Martin and Katy walking up the street. He's staring at them with evil eyes. He begins speaking. 'I'll get him, how dare he touch my daughter, I'll get him.' Then the scene fades out and we just see the words Coronation Street, and then an announcer whispers. 'He's had enough!'
I know this would be nothing compared to some of the brilliant promos ITV have done for Corrie (Mad Maya) but it's just a thought.

That's a good one. It could be quite abstract too to make it look good. For example it could be a completely black background with JUST the window, and Tommy leaning down on it looking at Martin and Katy who are also in front of a black background. Simple yet effective. Apparently that works. I wouldn't know i'm not an artiste

That's what I was thinking, having it dark, no colour at all.
Plot:
The EastEnders "dum-dums" will be played slowly and echoey, with the EastEnders logo slowly forming at the top of the screen. A picture of the Queen Vic is in the main picture and Chrissie laughing manically over the top of the piece. Fade to Den looking folorn and lost.
Voiceover:
Revenge is hers.... Everybody's talking about it.... EastEnders
We hear steps, the the screen fades into a dark scene. We see a womans feet, with high heels walking along the square. The shot pans out to see another two pairs of legs walking beside the centre pair. The two outer women stop. The centre woman walks up and knocks on the door of the Queen Vic. The screen fades to a black screen and then the EastEnders logo appears.
Voiceover
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, EastEnders.
Steff standing in a black dress with some white shirt and bright red lipstick and a single Red rose. She'd be standing a complete black room with only a white light on her. Puilling each petal of the rose.... he loves me.... he loves me not.... he loves me.... he loves me not.... he loves me...........he loves me not....... *looks up and smiles* suddenly it cuts to dark night with Sadie walking up the village road with a rose with a single petal. The camera would speed up to her pulling the final petal off as she says "Not............" she'd continue walking and the promo would end on the words..... "her love is like a red red rose"
