SCRIPT
WRITING TECHNIQUE
As
already explained to you, preparing any script requires a story and story is an
outcome of some idea. Ideas are generated on facts collected by you or come to
you out of mere fantasy and imagination. When your idea is based on real and
factual happenings it tends to be a non-fiction script based on facts of life,
and when a story is shaped on your imagination and fantasy it is called
fiction. In certain cases when you turn facts into your own imaginary format it
again becomes fiction. There can be a part of factual situations present in
your script but now that you have added your own imagination to it, it becomes
a piece of fiction. And there is certainly going to be a difference in
presenting facts and fiction in film script format.
We
will here know how we can write a 12 minute script for target audience for
promoting literacy in them.
This
story can be a fact, because most of the women and men in our villages have not
still been able to achieve basic elementary education. But the characters and
the entire weaving of the story is based on imaginary idea.
Idea:
illiteracy amongst common masses in the village is going against their own
interest. Because they cannot read and write, they are still being exploited.
Synopsis:
In a village we show a Girl pulling water from a well and taking that to her
home. Her in-laws are sitting inside. A postman comes to deliver a money order
sent by the husband of the girl. The postman hands over half the amount of the
money order and takes a receipt of the full. The girl can’t read the amount.
She puts her thumb impression on the receipt. The postman leaves. When
questioned by her father in-law, the girl replies that the post man had
delivered a money order. She shows the money order receipt and the money to her
father in-law. Then her father in-law curses her for not having informed him,
he tells her that her husband had sent 6000 rupees and she has received only
3000/ the postman had cheated her. The mother in-law of the girl says that the
fault was their own they should have allowed their daughter in-law to learn at
least basic education.
Let us break this story into sequences:
1.
First Sequence: Exterior Pan Shot- A typical Indian village is shown
where a young woman is drawing water from the well within the courtyard of her
home. (Dissolve at MCU of the woman)
2.
Second Sequence: We show a postman coming on his cycle with a bunch of
letters he approaches the door and knocks it; the same woman appears from the
inner side of the door, opening the door she gets happy seeing the postman.
3.
Third Sequence: She asks the postman to wait awhile goes inside and fetches
water and sweets for him, asks him to come inside offers him a seat.
From
one inter-cut we show the In-laws laying inside (interior shot) the other room
and enquiring who it was. We cut back to the woman replying this is postman.
The post man draws money from the bag. We zoom in at the M O and the face of
the postman depicting mischief on his face. We cut to girl, she is not happy to
get only 3000/ rupees.
4.
Fourth Sequence: The Woman goes inside her home, the postman leaves. The
woman shows the money to her mother in-law, who also expresses disappointment.
She wakes up the father-in-law.
5.
Fifth sequence: (Interior) Inside the house father-in-law asks the daughter-in-law
to bring his pair of spectacles. He wears his glasses and reads the letter
accompanying the money order in which his son has stated that he is sending a
money order of 6000/ rupees. The father –in-law gets angry with the woman for
not informing him when the postman had come, but how could she do that when you
were sleeping at the moment, and then how could she think that the postman will
cheat her. The father in-law- is totally outraged at this.
6.
Sixth Sequence: Mother In-law tells her husband “why don’t you teach her
alphabets?”
(Dissolve)
Narration:
