TRANSITION; FEEDBACK AND SCRIPTING

As the producer, I wrote the script for the project, though it is a recreation it still needed heavy scripting as we had decided to change some of the scenes up. As discussed, we took a scene from the end of episode one and weaved it in and out of the opening of the same episode. It fit really well as both scenes are describing/talking about to death of Jason Blossom. I changed it up slightly by adding a few lines of dialogue, such as on page 3, the end of the conversation differs a lot in the real show, but because we wanted to make it dramatic I changed up the last line. Having Jughead say 'this town is full of secrets, they always come out' is really indicative of the tone of the overall series and I thought it fitted in well.

Feedback from Simon and tutorial;
- Test shoot to be done with fig rig, jib arm and track in order to decide what to use and what would be best on the shoot day
- Make sure we have filming permissions if anyone is in the background of our leeds castle shoot
- Make a shot list; make sure shots are separately organised so we know exactly what we are filming
- Script needs to be more detailed
- Make sure the shots we film match the voice over that is in the beginning of the script
- Montage needs more thought
- Think about transitions between montage and diner

As a producer, the main thing I had to do from this feedback was make sure the script was more detailed. After reading it back myself i did realise that i had skimmed over some parts and not made them as detailed as it should have been. I hadn't put in any detail on the actions that the actors were to take, for example facial expressions or where they would be standing etc. I went back over the script, as well as rewatched the scene from the episode in order to gain some more detail in the script. I didn't find it too difficult to make the script more detailed as i think it was more the actions they take that i had to elaborate on, for example i included how Archie and Jughead would be sitting together, and how they would react to what each other were saying through facial expressions.
