Script

This is the script for our soap trailer The Vale;

Character List

Alcoholic Teacher - Mrs Goodfellow (Mrs Slater)
Daughter/Pregnant Teen - Vicky Davies (Beca Smith)
Drug User - Griff
Drug Dealer - Taz

We have chosen to use the names Griff and Taz for our drug dealers to conform to the conventions of a typical 'Chav'. These are sterotypical 'Chav' names because they do not usually use their first name, but a surname or a nickname.

500 Days of Summer Script Example

I have researched a number of existing scripts on the internet so that me and Beca can make our script as realistic as could be. I have come across the 500 Days of Summer script and have copied and pasted a section.

INT DINER - AS BEFORE
          
                              SUMMER
                    This thing. This whatever it is.
                    You and me. Do you think this is
                    normal?
          
                              TOM
                    I don't know. Who cares about
                    normal?! I'm happy. Aren't you
                    happy?
          
                                                          9.
          
          
          
                              SUMMER
                    You're happy?
          
                              TOM
                    You're not?
          
                              SUMMER
                    All we do is argue!
          
                              TOM
                    That is such a lie!
          
          
          INT TOM'S PLACE - AS BEFORE
          
                              RACHEL
                    Maybe she was just in a bad mood.
          
                              PAUL
                    A hormonal thing.
          
                                 RACHEL
                    P.M.S.?
          
                              TOM
                        (to Rachel)
                    What do you know about PMS?
          
                              RACHEL
                    More than you.
          
                                 TOM
                    Oh my god.
          
                              MCKENZIE
                    Please continue.
          

Location Shots

Beca and I have visited our locations that we will use to fill. These include Pencoed Comprehensive, Pencoed Chemist, Bathroom and Llanharan skate park. Here are the location shots;

Llanharan Skate Park

Pencoed Comprehensive School

E4

We have chosen to use the channel e4 to document our trailer on. E4 is a British digital television channel launched as a pay tv companion to Channel 4. The E stands for entertainment and the 4 is aimed at the age group the channel is aimed at, aged 15-35. Programmes on this channel include The Inbetweeners, Skins, One Tree Hill, Hollyoaks, Made in Chelsea etc. We have decided to use E4 as it is popular for our genre of film and it fits in well with the storylines we will be using, such as drugs, teen pregnancy, teen sex etc which is often shown in Skins and Misfits.

Copyright free music

I have been researching free copyright music on the internet and came across this website. Beca has been playing around on Garageband to create a possible song for us to use in our video.

Here is the link to the website;

We would like to use existing artists music but as that is not currently possible due to copyright, we will continue to create our own music on Garageband.
