screen 2008

My team (Ross, Michelle, Ben and me) are doing a 3 90 second clip project based on being positive titled "Happiness Is A Virtue".

The first episode shows a guy having rotten luck on the day of a job interview, and turning up with a negative attitude.

Second episode has the same scenario but the guy has a positive attitude

Third episode will explain how to stay positive.

We’re in early stages at the moment. 

this was the original script and idea we had for the greenscreen project. A huge difference from this to the final cut.

                                   GRAVE STONE FRIGHT       

It’s very late at night with a Full Moon in the middle of nowhere. Two girls Michelle and Mary are driving down a dirt road after a night of partying

Hear car sputter then stall in the background.

                                               MARY (angrily)

                                               Shit! Stupid car!

Michelle and Mary decide to walk to find some help

                                             MICHELLE (worried)

               I don’t think anyone is going to drive pass at this time of night

Walking pass eerie graveyard

                                               MARY (enthusiastically)

              Hey lets walk through there I think it’s a shortcut to a petrol station

                                              MICHELLE (scared)

                            No way I don’t think that’s a good idea

                                              MARY (coy)

                                    Come On chicken shit!

Michelle and Mary start walking through the graveyard

Scary Eyes appear behind a gravestone
 

                                            CREATURE (softly)

                                    grrrrrrrrrrr

                                           MICHELLE (whispers)

                                  Did you hear that?

                                           MARY (worried)

                                 Yeah what do you think it is?

Michelle and Mary start to pick up speed

Creature runs towards them at fast speed

                                          MICHELLE and MARY (frightened)

                                   AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!

Michelle and Mary run away from the creature until it finally catches up with them.

This is the storyboard used to make the six dialogue sequence. We first shot a demo during class then we shot the final cut a few weeks later. We kept mostly to the storyboard.
