An OC could be a scientist sent to study the planet's ecosystem in the Pitch Black universe. They encounter Riddick and end up having to rely on his survival skills. The fanfiction could explore how the OC's scientific knowledge and Riddick's street - smart ways work together to overcome the various challenges on the planet, such as finding food and water sources.
One idea could be a fanfic that focuses on the backstory of how the Barden Bellas formed. Maybe explore the different auditions and how the original members first met and bonded over their love for a cappella.
To pitch effectively, make sure your idea is well-developed and has a strong hook. Prepare a visually appealing presentation or portfolio. Also, be passionate and confident when communicating your concept. It's important to show that you have a deep understanding of the comic book industry and the target audience.
One idea could be a prequel focusing on how the Bellas formed in the first place. Maybe explore the early relationships between the members like Aubrey and Chloe.
One idea could be a pitch meeting where the characters from different Screen Rant reviewed movies end up in a wacky situation. For example, they are all in a meeting to pitch a new crossover movie idea that combines all the movie universes they've covered. Maybe the superheroes meet the horror movie villains in a comical way.
A crossover with 'High School Musical' would also be cool. Picture the Pitch Perfect girls and guys going to the same school as the High School Musical characters. There could be a big musical showdown where the two groups have to combine their talents. The Pitch Perfect crew's edgy acapella style might clash and then blend with the more traditional musical theater style of High School Musical, leading to an amazing performance.
Another plot could involve Rapunzel's hair having the ability to repel Pitch Black's nightmares. Pitch discovers this and tries to cut off her hair. However, Rapunzel uses her wits and the help of Pascal and Maximus to outsmart him. In the process, Rapunzel realizes she has more power within her than she ever knew, not just in her hair but in her spirit, and she becomes a force to be reckoned with against Pitch.
One idea could be to have the characters from Harry Potter end up in the Pitch Black universe. Maybe Harry and his friends could be stranded on a planet like in Pitch Black and have to deal with the dangerous creatures there while also using their magic in unique ways. For example, using Lumos to fend off the Pitch Black creatures in the dark.
A more light - hearted plot could be that Pitch accidentally gets frozen by Elsa's powers. When he thaws, he finds that he has lost some of his dark powers. In order to get them back, he has to 'befriend' Elsa. Through this forced friendship, they both learn about each other's insecurities and fears, and in the end, Elsa helps Pitch find a new purpose that doesn't involve spreading fear.
One idea could be exploring Pitch Black's past in more detail. Maybe he had a friendship before he turned dark that could be rekindled in the fanfiction. Another idea is to have Pitch Black team up with the Guardians against a new, even greater threat.
