Statement of intent: 100 words explaining what you plan to make.
I plan to make a short Science Fiction television scene set in a mysterious school. A variety of camera shots including close-ups and over the shoulder shots will be used. The characters will be innocent individuals who has to complete a tough task inside the school.
I will aim to subvert the stereotype of young females being incapable of doing things such as being heros etc, in this short film the protagonist will be a powerful character. I plan to include a variation of supernatural props and mysterious characters in my movie to show its a science fiction television.
Script: Stage directions and dialogue for phone conversation (and voiceover if required). To see how a TV script is presented, and to look at professional examples, check out the BBC Writers' Room and click on Script Library.
Casting: Who will be in your film.
Olena playing Jahseha
Assia playing Onfroya
Shirhan playing Dwayna
Location: Where in school you will film (OR where you will film off-site if you wish to do this for homework). Important note: You CANNOT take any students out of any other lessons and your filming location must not disturb any other teachers in the school.
In school I will film on DS near the doors for a few shots then the shots will transfer to the hallways. This is where the girls will have their conversation.
Shot list: Every shot you plan to film. This needs to be far more shots than you will actually use in the final version - plan extra close-ups, long shots, unusual angles and more. You can find an example shot list here.
