Sometime in the near future, I hope to start filming the odd bit of film that I’ve scripted. Looking through a back catalogue of things I’ve written, and things I’ve yet to share with you on here, I came across a nice little piece I wrote for a module I did two years ago, for Film Production.
Throughout this module we were, as a class – individually – encouraged to write our ideas down and, at the end of the semester, present our finished product. I wrote this with the hopes of filming it back then, but due to time constraints, budget restrictions and the sheer inexperience of my crew, I couldn’t get past pre-production. Instead, I filmed a lovely documentary about my hometown, in an afternoon, with my beautiful assistant, and long-time wingman, who we will call S.
Since then I’ve occasionally found myself drawing storyboards for film ideas, most recently for Media Theory and Practice, where – in a group – we are to film a short feature promoting the city of Aberdeen and its Shires. And, seeing as I have been somewhat relaxed about my recent submissions on here, I thought I would let you see what was my first – and favourite – script.
