Script

From the feedback from my first script from my lecturer. I decided to completely change my story completely. The feed was helpful and was an awakening for me becuase I felt with the original script I was a little held back and so I thought i would be a little dearing in my new script.

Script extract
Gary
I…

DOLL
You need me Martin. With out me 
they wont stop.

Silence

You need to do it. I told you before what 
as to be done. 

Gary
Leave me alone! (Shouts)

He picks up the doll and throws it away. Gary closes his eyes and starts muttering to him self. 

…I can’t let it happen, I wont let him
do it. He won’t do it

Silence

The Doll is back on the desk in front of him
DOLL
Martin. I see you have been busy…

Gary
Where did you get that?

Gary notices bloody knife in front of him on the desk.
DOLL
So you did it then?

Gary looks away not wanting to see it. Faint scream it heard. The screen flickers to an image of a knife being held by someone.

Roles of a Director

A Director is a person who directs the making of a Film or Tv show. I feel the role of a director in Film is to take a script, Break it down and visualise the flow of film whilst contrlling the films artistic and dramatic feel of the film whilst constantly guiding the actors and crew in the furfilment of the vision.

Danny Boyle

I Think it is about that Danny Boyle as had some recognition from the America Audience with his latest film Slum dog Millionaire. I am yet to see the film. I have always been a fan of Danny Boyle films. Recently he as been more of an inspiration to become a director and film maker because of his success and the graet films he as Directed. I feel he as made such a different range of films that in my oppinion have been great if not cult classics. I really like how the American film industry wanted the film Slum dog Millionaire to straight to DVD and now it as won 8 Oscars at the most prestigious film awards beating many block buster such as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

My all time favorite is Trainspotting I really like the gritty reality off how drug taking can effect life's also the aspect of the surrealism in it to show the effects of the drugs. My particular favorite scene in this film is when Renton as an adverse affect with the heroin he as just taken.


I like this scene on how its shows drug taking as if it an every day thing with no glamour about it as some films portray it. Also the use of the song its a perfect day by Lou reed as it ambiguity in it as well because the son is actually about his own addiction to heroin.

Another work that particular standin out for me is
The Beach
. I particular like the horro flicks 28 days later and 28 weeks later and the way it changes the preconception of whata Zomie actually was. I liked how it gave a reality to the fantasy and the way the films leave you feeling little un easy thinking that a zombie outbreak could happen out your own home.

I feel his film can Please and shock an audience with the gritty reality they show they always hav some aspect of realism allowing an audience to relate to the films in someway or another.
