Script
We learned from last year that we had to ensure that our script was of a professional standard and so I stuck to the Courier New font. As we intended our film to be action-heavy, we decided to not focus so much on dialogue. As a result, some of the dialogue may seem a little cliche but, in many senses, we intended for that. This time round I wanted to make sure my group used a wider variety of locations and tried out a different style of shots.
Ext - Alleyway - Midday
​
Camera focusing on the door in the alleyway. Door flies open, Man A in hoodie and joggers, with a panicked look on his face, and holding a bag rushes out. He throws the bag around his shoulder and runs out of the doorway.
​
(Background shouting)
"Hey, get back here"
​
Man A runs out and turns left where he then runs off screen down the alley whilst the camera pans back to see Man B emerge from the open door in black T-shirt and black jeans. Man B looks, first, to the right and then the left and chases after Man A.
​
Man B shouting
"You're not going to get far you know"
​
Man B chases after Man A down the alley as camera follows closely. Both men run out of the alley and run to the right.
​
​
​
Ext - Street - Midday
​
Both men running down the street and cross the road. Man A gets across cleanly but Man B stutters as a car nearly hits him down. Car blows horn angrily as Man B continues on chasing Man A across the street.
​
Man B
"Just stop already"
​
​
​
Ext - Bournemouth Cinema Steps - Midday
​
Man A sprints up steps followed closely by Man B. Frenzy of quick shots following the chase and both men heavy panting. Man B comes close to catching Man A but trips upwards on a step. Man B composes himself and carries on running up the steps.
​
Both Men run off at the top of the stairs and make it to their cars. Man A gets in first and takes off, followed shortly by Man B.
​
​
​
Ext - Road - Midday
​
Man A's car getting away but Man B's car following behind. Car chase scene should last for around 45 seconds with fast camera shots from different angles around each car.
​
Man B whispers to himself
"Where are you going?"
​
Car chase continues on down a road. Man A's phone rings, he picks up.
​
Man A
"Yeah I know... I'm nearly there... yeah he's still on me but I'm pretty sure I can make it"
​
Man A takes a sharp turn away from Man B but Man B carries on unknowingly and we see a frustrated Man B bang on his wheel. Man B reverses to try and make it back past the turn but Man A's car is already gone.
​
Man B picks up his phone
"I lost him"
​
​
​
Ext - Forest - Midday
​
Man A runs out from his car a little bit away and into the forested area by a tree.
​
Camera focuses on Man A's relieved expression as he sets the bag down on the floor in front of him. Camera placed behind box, looking up at Man A's face as he opens the bag. Film ends with Man A smiling to himself and shutting the bag. Screen goes black as bag is zipped back up.
