Planning: Shooting Script

Shooting scripts was created as it is a guide to help us know what we are doing on the day, how long it should take, who is involved in each scene. This way we can be more organised on the day, and the shoots can run efficiently, and helps us understand what needs to be implemented on different scenarios.

Frankie: After mum adopted Ruby, I started to feel more and more distant from the family. Dad never used to pick me up anymore, mum always would take Ruby shopping with her, read her stories before bed, when before it used to be me. I hated her, I hated being second best to my mum and dad because of her, she ruined our family, and she ruined my family. I used to make it clear to her that she wasn’t welcome; that I didn’t like her, that she ruined my family took my place. She got sick of it, which is why she ran away, and never came back. No one ever knew why she would run away, or why she was that unhappy to run away at that age. Looks like in the end I was right, she was a weirdo! She came from a family who died just after she was born, and it turns out she was born with a curse.

Amy: Ooow so what’s the curse?
Alex: What happens if we say the curse?
Frankie: If we say the curse, she returns
Jay: I don’t believe this, there’s no such thing!
Jason: Yeah this is bullshit!
Alex: Aliee haha!
Frankie: You don’t believe me? Fine, let’s do it
the curse is, Arrives, dies, returns, arrives dies returns, arrives dies…. Returns [Clock ticks] [10:58]

[All holds hands] [Giggles]
[ All repeats curse x3]
[ Silent ]
[All start laughing apart from Frankie]

Jay: Ahh see what did I say, this stuff isn’t real!
Alex: What a waste of time, I’m tired
