unit 1.2 scriptwriting
Task 1:
It was a cold morning in York and James and his family were going to a cafe to start the morning on a high, however the cafe was a top notch posh place in which phones weren't able to be in site and food/drink only brought from the cafe was allowed to eat. James being a mad fussy eater, most likely wouldn't of found anything that he'd like to eat so his mum snuck in a packet of cheese and onion crisps.
After the family sat down to a table and ordered a morning snack and drinks, James's mum sneakily undid the crisps under the table discreetly so James could have something with his drink. However from passing it under the table, James thought his mum hadn't opened the crisps he grabbed them from under the table and they all fell onto the floor under the table.
Everyone was sat laughing their heads off at the table, however James' mum was so embarrassed and obviously a bit mad although she couldn't help laugh a little.
James' auntie was gone though. She was having such uncontrollable laughter; she had to run to the toilet so she didn't wet herself. Everyone witnessed her laugh as it echoed through the whole cafe and that made the family laugh even more because her laugh was so infectious. You could even here laughing to herself silly while she was in the toilet. "Hahahahaahahahahahaha
For the rest of the time of we dined inside the cafe, our whole family had to sit close to the table to cover up the piles of crisps that were all under the table. It would've been easier if they sold crisps in the posh cafe but sadly they didn't sell anything like that.
After that all went down, we were all still laughing although we got the bill and left as soon as possible to cover up the mess all on their posh floor. They probably were angry once they found out because we weren't to know ourselves. We were probably long gone by then.
Task 2:
-What is the perspective it is written in? A script is always written in 3rd person.
-Is a script written in past, present or future tense? A script is written in present tense
-On average, how much of the script is spent describing what is going on (answer as a percentage)? usually 65-70%
-List different things that were described or could be described in the "action" part of the script.
Location, characters, props, sounds, action and emotion.
Task 3:
Slugline: New information each time in each time.
