I have just finished my second draft of my script. I have got up to 9 pages so am re-reading and have asked others to read and give feed back so I can see and change some scenes. I feel as though because most of the characters are masked, its quite confusing to really show which character is which, so I have changed it so their are three main MASKED MEN and one main MASKED WOMAN. Making all the other masked people in the background.

I have written my outline for my script. Doing this helped me to figure out how I wanted my script to end. I have decided to make Freeman into one of the bad guys at the end, creating the climax.

This past week I have written three pages in my ten minute script, I have yet to write the main challenge for Maria. I have written character biographies for Maria and Freeman. I also keep changing on how i’m going to end my script, I am unsure whether I wanna end it with being a premonition from Maria, or I make it so Freeman turns into one of the masked men and becomes the villain.

Over the past three days I have been planning and writing my first two scenes for the ten minute script as well as for the relay project. In our workshop this week we discussed our ideas in a small group. From the discussion, I had some advice that I should keep the ‘paranoia’ theme for the relay project and the other idea for my ten minute script.

I have started to write down character biographies for my main two characters in my script. I have mad sit my priority to make ‘Maria’ and ‘Freeman’ have two very different personalities and attitudes towards life. Making ‘Maria’ the classical, shy and traditional young woman and ‘Freeman’ the modern, laid back and extrovert character. By doing this I’m applying Seger’s thought on ‘contrasting characters’ to show that opposites do attract.

I also plan on writing two scripts to see which one I feel is better and fits to the brief more. Both of these stories are based on dreams that I have had. One (which is my main idea) is based on a couple who go on a day trip to a historical Castle. They are then placed in the middle of a targeted location where a mob of masked people start attacking. The second story is a lot more simple, its based on the same couple, but the girl starts getting paranoid when her boyfriend starts being blunt and suspicious. She automatically thinks that he is cheating on her, after a climax (which i have not yet decided) she thens finds out he is actually planning on proposing to her.
