Diary Post #1

After doing some research on the type of film genre I want to make (Sci-fi thriller) I am trying to come up with a plot for my film. I'm finding it tricky to think of an intriguing narrative that would also make an interesting trailer. I know that I want to include a robot, however I am unsure of whether I want the robot to be evil, or whether the characters are going to turn the robot evil. I need to look at other robot related films such as "AI" to help me  get inspiration, without stealing their idea's for my film.
