The Script.
Opening –black screen – soundscape of screaming and pleading.
Opening shot:
Joe secured to tree with razor wire, his skin is completely cut up and he is unconscious, the audience has no idea weather he is alive or dead. We see a large figure barely lit, standing looking at his victim, knife covered in blood, in his hand.
2 Days earlier.
Gemma: please don’t forget to bring anything this time, as much fun as it was you guys forgetting toilet roll last time, I don’t fancy using leaves again.
Joe: chill out will you, it’s all good, were pros now.
Girls: laugh.
Josh: is that everything? I think were ready to go.
All get into car joking and laughing. And start ignition.
All: were on going on a summer holiday (singing)(Pulling out of driveway)
Jo: how long till we get there, Joe I thought you said it wasn’t far.
Joe: according to the map were nearly there, I should have found out where we were going before we decided to come here, I know.
Josh: seriously man, we need to pull over im bursting back here.
Gemma: pshhhhhhh, ha-ha sorry babe, couldn’t help myself.
Josh: you’re not funny; I’ve never needed to go so bad.
Jo: will you two calm down, you couldn’t make your flirting any more obvious.
Joe: it’s this turning, were like 2 minutes away.
Josh: this looks nice and out the way (winks at Gemma)
Joe: seriously you two make me want to gag!
They arrive at a decent spot, and start unloading the car and setting up tents.
Jo: Joe, Where’s the cooker?
Joe: ahh shit I knew I forgot something
Jo: OUT OF EVERYTHING YOU COULD FORGET!
Joe: I’m joking short stuff! Its under the sleeping bags.
They set up camp sun goes down and its dark, the lads have started a small campfire for everyone to sit around. The whole group sits around having a few drinks and reminiscing and telling stories.
Josh: this is going to be one of the best weekends we have had in a long time.
Everyone nods smiles and agrees.
Camera pans around them and focuses on a set of trees behind the group.
The group continue to banter and joke.
We cut to a slit frame between two trees, and the audience start to realise this isn’t going to be a normal camping trip.
Gemma: right im not being funny, but im slightly trashed and its getting late. Im going to bed.
The others, nod and agree and walk off to the tents and all settle down to go to sleep/
Gemma (whispers): josh, did u hear something.
Josh; no, why?
The sound of a tyre bursting startles the group. And Jo Screams….
Jo: WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!
Ok,good script. However, this does seem alot of filming - leaving, the car journey, putting up tents and establishing camp, talking, the psycho! How long do you think this will be? how many shots?
ReplyDeletethe clips with minimal dialogue such as the car journey and the packing of the car, will be quite short, between 15- 30 seconds each, the rest will be set within the woodland, and we have worked it out to be around 2 minutes exactly possibly slightly longer depending on speed of dialogue but this should only make it about 2minutes 10 seconds.
ReplyDeletewe have also swapped two of the roles around so Joe now plays our killer and Andy has taken Joe's role of the team this was due to Joe and Andy agreeing they would be better in the opposite roles.
ReplyDeletethis had changed slightly but an updated version will be added over the weekend, due to a complete cast change as our original cast turned out to be very unreliable.
