Sub Plans for Periods 1 & 3 - Wednesday April 18th

Good morning,

Unfortunately, I am out again today taking care of my daughter. Please follow the directions below as you continue planning your CAP Hollywood stories:

1. Carefully complete your story planning poster today. Please make sure you have added EVERY possible event or scene in the film from start to finish following the 3 act structure. Some groups were being too general with their events I noticed. Each group must list EVERY little thing that happens in each scene. The idea is that your group figures out all these details now so when you write the script you'll have an idea where you are going.
2. Once you have completed the story poster you can transition to starting the script. For CAP Hollywood, we are using the standard one column screenplay format. We were going to go over this on class today but instead you're going to have to use the following worksheet to figure it out.
   
   Fortunately, there are only 4 basic elements in a screenplay format: Slugline, Action, Character's Names and Dialogue. CLICK THIS LINK TO SEE AN EXAMPLE OF THESE FOUR BASIC SCRIPT ELEMENTS.
3. Please work together as a group as you craft your script. It's never too early to start thinking about music and even sound effects. Google Docs is the best format for writing your script as every group member can be invited to be an editor. Group members can also start working on securing filming locations and reaching out to potential actors/actresses. 

Feel free to email me with any questions this morning: cap10media@gmail. And please use the time today wisely. I look forward to reviewing your scripts Friday.

PLEASE MAKE SURE ALL THE CAP HOLLYWOOD STORY POSTERS ARE COLLECTED AND STORED IN MY ROOM AT THE END OF CLASS. YOU WILL CONTINUE TO USE THOSE OVER TH ENEXT FEW WEEKS!
