Lesson 9/2/09 and THE SCRIPT.

This particular lesson was one of the most productive lessons that the team has achieved so far. We finished the plot summary, wrote the script and started the story boarding. 

Here is the finished script, with shot directions:

*City skyline shots of buildings.

*ESTABLISHING SHOT OF A CORPORATE BUILDING.

*Hear phone ringing, shot cuts to a man in an office writing information down.

*The office worker answers the phone...

*"Hello?"

  "Hi, so, what's the story?"

  "Well..."

*CUTS INTO FOREST SCENE (by fading into a photo of the forest on the desk).

*(Over the top of forest scene footage)...

*"Here's what I have so far, two teenage boys (boys come into shot now) were having a kick about via 'insert forest's name here'. They passed the to-be victim walking her dog in the opposite direction... (woman comes into shot now)"

*"Come on, cut to the chase!"

*SWITCHES BACK TO SHOT OF OFFICE.

*"I'm getting there ok..."

*FADES INTO ANOTHER PHOTO OF THE FOREST.

*"One of the teenagers receive a text message and loses control of the football (boy receives text message now), he turns around to get it and can't believe his eyes... (boy drops phone now)

*BACK INTO OFFICE SCENE.

*"The victim was found dead, sprawled out across the forest floor, her dog was no-where to be seen".

*"I see...".

*"So, how much is this going to cost to clear up?"
