Based on what you have learned in Chapter 2, Interpreting The Written Word, write a 4-page (4 minute) script. You may choose to write your script for an animation or for live action. Think of this as a script for a short film or one scene in a longer film.

Your script will meet these objectives:
¢ Write a brief, one-paragraph treatment for your story/script idea – See the About Treatments page below to learn about this
¢ 4 pages, 12-point Courier font
¢ Indentation and spacing as shown on pages 20, 22, 23 in the textbook. Each script page represents 1 minute of screen time.
¢ Script may be for an animation or live action production
¢ Include at least two different characters
¢ This may be a self-contained short film (4 minutes) or one scene excerpted from a longer film
¢ Include the slugline (master scene heading) that describes the location, time of day, weather, etc.
¢ Include script elements for action prior to dialogue, character names and actor direction in parentheses
