Adaptation / Thoughts And Research
So I have
decided to go with the tribe environment or a lost city in a jungle for a film
set but not being much of a reader I didn't have any sources of what I knew of.
So Iv been researching on the internet and going to libraries in search for a
source and have come across the book The Return Of Tarzan by Edgar Rice
Burroughs.
Information:
The Return
of Tarzan is a novel written by Edgar Rice Burroughs, the second in his series
of books about the title character Tarzan. It was first published in the pulp
magazine New Story Magazine in the issues for June through December 1913; the
first book edition was published in 1915 by A. C. McClurg.
Plot
Summary (Just where the scenes come into the story of the book.)
Miraculously,
Tarzan manages to swim to shore, and finds himself in the coastal jungle where
he was brought up by the apes. He soon rescues and befriends a native warrior,
Busuli of the Waziri, and is adopted into the Waziri tribe. After defeating a
raid on their village by ivory raiders he becomes their chief. The Waziri know
of a lost city deep in the jungle, from which they have obtained their golden
ornaments. Tarzan has them take him there, but is captured by its inhabitants,
a race of beast-like men, and condemned to be sacrificed to their sun god. To
his surprise, the priestess to perform the sacrifice is a beautiful woman, who
speaks the ape language he learned as a child. She tells him she is La, high
priestess of the lost city of Opar. When the ceremony is fortuitously
interrupted, she hides him and promises to lead him to freedom. But the ape man
escapes on his own, locates the treasure chamber, and manages to rejoin the
Waziri.
Other adaptations:
Burroughs'
novel was the basis of two movies, the silent films The Revenge of Tarzan
(1920) and The Adventures of Tarzan (1921), based on the first and second parts
of the book, respectively. The first film starred Gene Pollar as the ape man,
and the second Elmo Lincoln, the original movie Tarzan.

Adaptation Ideas
First general Ideas for this unit was text to digital set for film or for a Map for a game.
Ideas:
A steampunk western town
A abandoned research facilities in a frozen wasteland
Post Apocalyptic city
tribe environment
pirate port
ancient tomb
A world under the Sea
Some of these ideas don't have any sources yet accept the tribe environment, which would be based on the book I got for Unit 2: Space. The book was King Solomons Mines. currently researching for sources which I could base my other Ideas on. If any come to mind let me know :)
