Diary - Writing the Script

Today, I wrote the script for our preliminary task. In order to do this, I followed the typical conventions of film scripts by first writing a slug line to set the scene : "INT.  OFFICE - DAY" and also setting the dialogue apart from the descriptions, by adding a space. Normally, the dialogue would be central on the page, which it was in the original word document, but could not be done in a blog post.

The script abides by thriller conventions as it uses enigmas. In particular, the object inside the flight case in never revealed and is kept as a mystery throughout the short. Also, the relationship between the two characters in the script is implied in the script, but never directly stated. Another thriller convention is used in the dialogue as all of the dialogue is kept very short and punchy, which is often used in thriller dialogue.
