Planning Blog: Shooting Script

We wrote our shooting script today. It is all the action that takes place in the movie. In total, we have five scenes. We have multiple shots and angles at the opening of our film. It is harder to picture what the angles are since the movie is filmed from the main character's and phone camera's point of view. We originally stated in our pitch that the movie was filmed from a phone camera's point of view but it is also from the main characters. The reason for this is to show not only social media itself but the immediate reactions from the main character. This lets the audience get a deeper connection by seeing the character's physical emotions. When the screen cuts to black it is usually to represent the phone being put in the main character's pocket. We think our film will show the audience a different perspective on teens' relationships with social media.
