Scriptwriting

Before you start
What's in a script?

TASK

You will have to write a script for a TV show, a movie, or an ad. (Minimum 8 pages)

Possibilities/ideas:

You can start from a show or a movie that already exists, and invent a new intrigue, or an alternate ending.

You can also come up with a completely new idea for a show or a movie and write a scene or two about it.

You can come up with a script for an advertisement

But first, ...

Write a logline

A logline helps you define what your story is about. Like the "logline" written to describe a movie on Netflix.

When that is done, you can start writing your script.

The script should be 6 pages in length for a pair of 2 students. 8 pages for teams of 3-4 students.

Start Brainstorming!

To summarize, I want:

- A logline for your story (+/- 35 words)
- An 8 pages script. (Team of 3-4)
A 6 pages script. (Individually or in pairs)

TIMELINE: 4 Classes. Including today.
