Planning- Script

Our script:

     Now that we have submitted a project proposal, a rough storyboard, and our title ideas, we decided that making a rough draft of the script would be our next option. Revisions may need to be made as we go, but as of right now it works and follows majority of our storyboard.

  In the writing process, we had to consider the max amount of time each scene could be due to our two minute time limit. In our original storyboard, we planned on having a male character walk to his car and turn on the radio, which would play the case out loud. We think this would've led us to go over our time limit, therefore we scrapped it.

    In compensation, we included Derek having a daughter being falsely accused of a crime. By making Lisa the main protagonist of the film, it makes it feel like more of a movie opening, rather than a short film, which executes our given goal well.

    Although this is a rough draft and may have some minor changes throughout the filming process, it checks off all the boxes of what we envisioned while planning our story.

Next Steps:

    The next step in our planning process will be for us to revise and edit the prop list to fit the changes we've made for our film opening. Once we finish that, we will begin to gather the set pieces, and think about places to film in. We have a rough idea of where we should film, but we need to ensure these places fit the vibe we are going towards.
