Script

In today’s lesson we began writing the script for our final production. We firstly had a group meeting to talk about what role each group member is going to take on, what we were going to include in our script, and what the different narratives were going to be. We decided that I was going to be the camera person, Tayla is the director, Keeley is going to be the sound and lighting person and Conall is going to be the producer and editor. We decided on these roles because we all believe that these were the roles best suited to us, and that we could carry out to the best of our ability. We then went on to decide the names of the characters and also where the scenes were going to be set. We also decided what dialogue was going to be spoken in the scenes, and also what the characters were going to be doing during the scene. As we have three narratives going on throughout our production we decided as a group we would each write a script to fit each scene. Both I and Keeley wrote the script for the ‘physical’ bullying scene which shows a teenage boy called Lewis being picked on by three other boys because of his sexuality. 
When writing the script we had to include the actors direction so that the actor is able to know what they are doing during the scene, and also where the scene is going to be set and the time of day that it is going to be filmed, for example; ‘EXT. School playground Afternoon’ which means that it is going to be filmed outside, on the school playground during the afternoon. Other members of the group also wrote the scripts for the ‘Cyber bullying’ scene, and the ‘subtle bullying’ scene which we had all come up with as a group. 
After everybody had finished writing their pieces of the script Tayla then went away and put it all together, ensuring that each scene flowed into eachother and that it was in the right format.
