Assignment 11

MOVIE SCRIPT


First study a section of the script for the film Good Will Hunting and watch how it was created on screen. Then continue writing the script yourself for the two scenes that we watch together in class. Try to include as many details as you can, particularly as to what happens in addition to the dialogue:
  • Setting, location
  • Clothing
  • Atmosphere
  • Pauses
  • Non-verbal communication
  • (You don't need to include the song lyrics.)





Note: you can't write this assignment at home.
