Writing the Script

It seemed that writing a 1920s script was much harder than I had thought. Therefore, I decided to find out some research on the language that they used in this time. I had found the below video on YouTube and had discovered exactly what I wanted the background story to be. The video helped me to think of an enigma and categorise why the femme fatale had killed her lover. The background story will be the anti-hero being a Private Detector and the femme fatale had tried to win him over to take her case: her sister in law had gone missing with her husbands money. Whilst the Private Detector and the femme fatale are working together on the case the femme fatale falls deeply in love with him, despite having a very rich gangster husband. She cried out for the Detective and they have a passionate affair. Although it seems the Detective uncovers some mystery to the femme fatales unclear story and does not want to be with her anymore. Revealing this, the femme fatale becomes jealous in anger and strikes him down, as she believes if she cannot have his love nobody can.

The video will not allow me to embed it to my blog but the link can be seen below:

Fairytale Neo-Noir Script Work

Autumn and I have started writing up a draft script of when we film our short film next week. We have decided to keep it short but sweet as we do not wish to make it too long, only a couple of minutes to keep the audiences attention. Here below are some photographs of Autumn's note book of the draft:

As you can see we have colour coded it. The red pen is obviously for Little Red Riding Hood, orange is for the wolf and blue are the stage directions. We found this much easier to coordinate when running through our lines. 

Reflective comment:
I still believe that we need to tweak this to give the short film it's full potential and to making it slightly longer. We also did not know what the wolf should say to Little Red because he should be flirting with her to get what he wants (her as his dinner). We also need to add much more detail and media terminology to create the best effects. I enjoyed this task because we could add our own imagination and how both Little Red and the wolf should act.
