Script

For my Thriller opening I don't really want a rigid a script as I want it to seem as natural as possible. I have written a script that will act as a guideline to my actors so they know what sort of thing I want to be said and by who in what shots.

Person key:
• 1 - man
• 2 - woman
• 3 - driver
• 4 - girl
• 5 - boy
• 6 - boy

Flashback:
1:
[shouts] “No!” (prolonged)

Scene 1:
4: (handing over the tea) “Here you go.”
1: “Thanks…it was a year ago today.”
4: “I know, just try not to think about what happened.”
(1 stands up)
4: “Where are you going?”
1: (putting on coat & walking out the door) “Out.”

Scene 2:
3: (standing up) “I’ll be back in a minute.”
6: “Ok.”
After 3 returns to the room.
5: “I’m gonna go now. Are you coming?”
3: “Yeah can do.”
3, 5 & 6 say “bye” to each other.

Alternative scene 2:
6: (3 walks into the room) “You alright?”
3: “Yeah I’m fine.”
5: “I’m gonna go, are you coming?”
3: “Yeah, can do.”
3, 5 & 6 say “bye” to each other.

Scene 3:
5: “I’m going this way so I’ll see you later.”
3: “Alright then, see you later.”
