Where, When, Who and What?
Before writing any script it is important to first establish three elements, these are.

1 Location (Where and When)

2 Characters (Who)
Names
Ages
Relationship

3 What happens? (What)





Interior. College. Evening

Lucy is tired and sleepy. She looks around the place slowly.


Lucy
(Sleepy/Tired)

She’s sitting in reception. Looks to her left and sees Joe (janitor). Looks at him for a while then looks to her right and stares through the window.


Joe
(Calm)

He starts to walk. At the same time as he exits the reception area and starts to walk down the corridor he looks at Lucy. On the way he bumps into three people.

Narrator

This young and healthy looking person actually is a loner and he likes it. He likes eating alone at lunch times and don’t get it wrong. People didn’t cast him out; he’s the one who brought rejection on himself.

Joe

He walks and bumps into the second person. A girl.

Narrator

Looks like an angel right ? Well, the next time you hear people saying don’t judge a book by its cover, use the knowledge. This girl could beat any guy at (name of the game). At least in the college.
(Flashes of Tania playing a (name of the game))

Joe

He walks further as he bumps into the third person.

Narrator

This guy here is so punctual; he thinks his life depends on being in a right place, at the right time.

Joe

Joe carries on walking down the corridor and (turns/goes/takes the elevator) to his room.
