Assignment 1: The Final Script.

Well... having shown the rough cut to a number of different people.... quite a few questions came up that are addressed, again people want to know "what the hell is going on before we see the character." And a lot of people wnated dialogue.... what the heck is that about?

No worries. It took some doing but I've managed to get dialogue in there that actually adds to the concept/theme of power, that also provides a very brief explanation of just what is going on in a very generally and undefined context. So the final setup/script/plot/document/thingamajiggie is here:

On screen event	Camera angles	Sound Effects	Dialogue	Props/misc notes

Charges out	Tracking shot over one shoulder	Gunfire
Fades to black, gunfire, screams of enemy dying			“Come on you mindless mother fuckers!”

So that literally detailing just about everything that needs to be done. the good news is that with a bit more background research and prep work, shooting should go a lot smoother this time... Now to track down my assorted crew of misfits and miscreants and minions.

The same venue will be used with a few minor changes - just to add a little more atmosphere/mood and background. The lightning won't be altered either. One of the last things that will be outstanding will be the audio aspect... I've got to track down sound effects and of course find a few voice actors - but that should beas y enough, considering my minions are willing to help. Now if only I could get Samuel L. Jackson to do the major audio... sigh...
