The teacher enters his classroom.
"Students. Today is the start of the Film Project. You may choose any topic you like and you must make a film about it. Make sure it's school appropriate. You have three weeks to film. Please use your time wisely, this will count for a third of your grade. I can't wait to see what you come up with." he smiles and gives everyone a camera for recording. He proceeds to ask their topic. Some say a lets' play. Some say vlogs. Common responses. A quick laugh is heard in the back.
"Mr. Valeska. Is there something funny you want to share with the class?" the teacher asks. A boy with orange/red hair looks up. He has a self-satisfied look.
"Well, sir. All their projects are nice, but they're painfully average; my topic is going to be the Slenderman," he says. Silence fills the room. The teacher looks shocked. After another moment of silence, the other students started to laugh.
"Stop laughing! When my documentary gets the highest grade, yall be pleading for mercy," he shouts angerly. The teacher calms everyone down and the end of the class arrives. It is time for a young boy to make the documentary of the century.
