The Script

 This week we have been working on our finishing touches for the opening. Some of which are the props, costumes, and one of the most important aspects of it, the script. A script is the written text that describes every motion and dialogue or a play, broadcaster, or in this case our film opening. 

    Scripts are very important since it guides the director and the actors what to do in each scene. Dialogue is an important aspect of scripts. How a character speaks and communicates says a lot about them. It can either represent their personality or also categorize them in a certain stereotype or even a culture.  Even though we weren't able to physically meet up for this activity, we did a group call and worked together on our script displayed here:

As we have already described our character's personality and physical traits in other posts, we wanted to illustrate and communicate those traits in the way they spoke. As seen in the dialogue, we see how Lucy has a very colloquial and sarcastic way of speaking. She's usually the friend taking the lead in their conversations and that shows. She is not afraid to communicate what she thinks, especially not in front of her best friend. On the other hand, Maya is more conservative. We see her truly speaking up on a matter at the beginning of the dialogue when she speaks about her dad not being home. This is a usual occurrence for her, and the fact that it has always bothered her, she most often shares that with Lucy.
