Development From Rough Script 2 to Final Idea

 I have really struggled to continue to write my script. I sat down with my friends and tried to talk about my idea for the script, as I know I have it in my head but I'm struggling to write and talk about it.  However, after discussing it with my friends I felt more comfortable with my idea.

 

These notes below are points I wrote down to help me re-write my script. I want the film to follow the different seasons, from spring where Jenny visits her husbands buried ashes on his fourth year anniversary. After Benjamin and Jenny first meet, the film will follow how Benjamin attempts to make Jenny feel happier by leaving gifts under the oak tree through the months. However, Jenny pushes Benjamin away in winter when she's in a dark place. Jenny then realises, she is lonely and the she subconsciously did enjoy the presence of Benjamin around her.

 

This happens over a course of a year, at the end in Spring. Jenny and Benjamin friendship comes back together (Spring as to start of a new beginning/ life).

 

 

 

 

Rough Script 2

 

This is my second rough script, again it's only the beginning I have produced. This beginning is also different to the last first few pages of the last script I began. I feel like I keep coming to a stop as I am finding it difficult for the story to flow. 

 

 

 

Rough Script 1

I have decided that I would like the whole duration of my script to be shot in the burial garden. So the two characters only ever meet in the garden. However, I'm finding it difficult to move the story on in the same place as I don't want it to be boring, I want to make their meetings over a long period of time but in the same place.

At this point I'm still struggling on what to write about for the middle and end of my script.
