When it came to writing the script, we all had a similar idea in mind. We all wanted to start with a shocking, intense scene, then after our opening titles, do a complete 180. Starting with a dark, eerie, and somewhat intense scene, then jump to a bright, bubbly, almost like a coming of age film scene is what we wanted to achieve.

Sofia was the most comfortable and familiar with the format of a script, so she took on the task of formatting it and writing the final draft. Zulai and I wrote out what we envisioned for the scene in a separate Google Doc, so Sofia could see what we were envisioning, and write a combination of all three of our ideas. Once she finished formatting it, she showed it to me and Zulai. She helped teach us the format of a script, and how dialogue, settings, and character descriptions are all written in.

Below is what Zulai and I wrote for our “scripts.” We decided to both write a mock script to help everyone understand what we were visioning, and this way we can do a combination of all of the scripts. Sofia also wrote a version of her script, but she wrote it on paper in her journal.

Above is our final script that Sofia wrote. We plan to add more to the second scene in the future, but as of now we want to focus on the first scene. We also don’t have a set title yet for our film, hence the “aice” title. We all are happy with how our work is coming along, and we are excited to see how our final project ends up.
