Week 6: Get Your Video On, Part I

Today we workshopped the first drafts of the video scripts that we'll be handing off to the BECA 240 production class in a few weeks. The key issues for now are script format and shot description, and overall producibility of the scripts (remember these have to be shot in Studio 1 in under three hours).

Homework for this week: Revise scripts. Next week I want the draft you had in class today, plus the new version, plus an attached paragraph summarizing the progress you made/changes you implemented between the two drafts. This means that the second draft is significantly better than the first! It doesn't have to be perfect yet, but the next few weeks are going to fly by, so we've got to get these babies shaped up.

Please refer to Assignment Sheet #2 for full instructions and format example; also feel free to download the script template for easy 2-column formatting.

Happy writing! Feel free to e-mail me if questions come up.
