2. Pre-Production –
Writing my script
• I am writing my script on the script writing website ‘CeltX’
this is because it is very easy to use and provides a lot of
support in writing the script in the way that it appropriately
structures the script.
• It makes my script-writing much more efficient as it has an
autosave which saves to the cloud, the reason this makes it a
lot more efficient is because it saves to the cloud, which
allows me to access and write my script from virtually any
device from any location.

3. Pre-Production –
Writing my
script
• I made a start, to writing a script for my short film. At this point in the
production of the script, I am yet to have a name satisfactory enough for my
work, so I am working with a placeholder for the time being.
• As director and writer of the short film, I want complete control on how the
short film is going to look in the finished product. To achieve this, I am writing
in the shot placements, music placements and all dialogue that the short film
will contain. All scenes must be written with my limitations in mind to keep
continuity as much as possible.
• The ideas when writing the script will revolve around the locations that they
are set in, as per the client’s requirements, Sunderland needs to have a large
presence in my film, and I will try to make the Sunderland locations feel like
characters in themselves.

6. My Script Draft
This is the first draft of my short film, I
have tried to implement parts of the
area around the character. I have
mentioned the ambient sounds which
should be in the film such as birds
tweeting. I have been careful to explain
how a character performs an action, so I
have used adverbs to explain how the
actor should perform.

7. My 2nd Script Draft
• My 2nd draft of my script is just
small improvements among the
content that I have already written
and extending upon the story,
here, I have written most of the
story and the main beats which
will happen throughout. I have
also directed myself on what shots
that I intend to use in the
production of my short film.

8. My Finished Script
After days of writing and
revising each draft, I have
finished the script for my
short film. The aim was to
mix both drama and action
and I believe I have
succeeded. The script
consists of 5 decently long
chapters of 2 characters
that I have created, in a
story that I have created.

29. Contributors Release
Form
• A contributor release form is important as it
shows legally that I have given permission for the
person to contribute to my project, it also shows
that they have acknowledged my granting of

32. Risk Assessment
• Creating a risk assessment is important to
my project. This is because we will be
filming outside for most of the production,
and this can open the myself and the crew
up to a lot of different risks.
• This requires me to officially acknowledge
these risks and to tick off everything that
may possibly happen.
