As part of the planning for our music video, we need to create a range of different documents that will give us both written and visual aids when creating out music video. As a written aid to the creating of my our video, we need to create a script that will provide enough information on each scene including the characters actions, characters costumes and the location for each scene. In order to make sure our script includes all the required information and features the correct layout, and is therefore a successful planning aid, I have performed some research into the production of professional scripts...
When carrying out the research into professional scripts, I was able to find an example of how each piece of information should be presented in order to create a script that will provide all of the necessary information and therefore be a lot of help when producing the actual video. As well as a very particular layout, scripts should also be written in a specific font which is
'courier'
and should be in displayed in a size 12 so that it is very clear and easy to read. The very first line of the script including the scene heading which is a quick guide to the scene including the scene number, whether the scene is interior or exterior, the location and whether the scene is shot during night or day. Other minor details of the script include the use of characters names in capital letters and any speech directions, such as sarcastic should be written in italics. These little details make sure the reader of the script can differentiate between each of the details and separate all of the information. The rest of the script then provides detailed information about the directions of each scene including the character movements and speech. As a character is introduced into the film they are introduced in the script (example b). After that they are referred to as their name and although their personality or their particular characteristics are referred to again, their actions and their clothing are described throughout each scene.
