work

1. Late for school
assessment ideas
Act 1: at home
Act 2: on the way to school
Act 3: arriving at school
On the way to school a black car pulled up next to her and
gave her a note book, it’s a little black leather note pad.. She
opens it and its full of symbols that once worked out are
names. The car is playing music and then the music stops.
The person in the car tells her to get in or something bad
will happen so she gets into the back of the car… the person
driving doesn’t turn around the voice only tells the girl to
pick one person on the list who wouldn’t be able to live in
the area, that they would have to leave their family, friends,
school ect and pick up to go and work for them. The girl is
running her finger along the names and working out who is
who. You see her eyes look up from the pages crying and
then looking away and giving the book back. The driver then
hands her a loose piece of tissue and freakishly the same
mascara and lip gloss as she put on earlier that morning.
Before she has a chance to get out of the car it starts driving
off.
The girl is getting ready in her room:
See: her brushing through her hair and putting her hair into a
ponytail…putting on mascara…spraying her perfume…putting on
a subtle lip gloss…putting on her leather jacket over her school
uniform…locking the door
Her room: immaculately clean but everything she has used in
the morning sprawled out across the freshly hoovered carpet
floor.
Smell: lingering smell of her perfume and insense burner
Feel: connected to the character almost like a montage of her
getting ready with close up shots-like in teen movies
Hear: music blaring off a speaker-an upbeat song
The car pulls up outside the school and the girl gets out of the car,
looking like nothing had happened she walked into school. One of her
friends is waiting for her, mysteriously already knowing what is wrong
with her and everything she had just experience and they left to go to
class. She turns around to the car looking straight at it and in a sly
malicious manner smiles and mouths thank you. (the camera looks
down at the notebook) the girl had picked for someone to disappear
and had written why…the person was shocking…she had put that her
and one of her friends would leave forever and had put where they
would go, there was another note stuck in on a blue post it note. It
read “don’t ever give me an ultimatum again…your not in control of
me, I am of you. I know your secret and im not scared to expose it. It
was only a matter of time before I found a loop hole, once again im
your boss, see you soon.”
