Script for Course Work


Text Box: MC = Main Character MSC = Main Supporting Character

Ragged Words:


The opening credits begin with showing the names of the production companies slowly turn into incoherent words that bear a resemblance to the name of the production company. 
The Library (Normal Day, Mild Weather, Afternoon, 201?)


INT DAY: The MC sits at a table in the library near a long glass window. The camera pans down. The main character is shown trying to read a book, he tries reading the content that are in the book. However, he keeps stopping after a few words. 

The camera shows him staring at the book without saying anything. The camera shows a time lapse of him as he continues to stare at the book.

 He then continues to close the book in an angered expression showing his frustration. The character looks at the window with a mundane expression, his fingers incessantly tapping on the table. His body sitting down in a slumped positron

We see the MSC walk past the glass window, the MSC looks away from their phone meeting the main character’s eyes, both show a happy expression of recognition. The MSC walks into the library and sits at the table the main character is sitting at.

The MC changes his body posture as the MSC starts to sit at the table he is sitting at. The MC slowly leans towards the direction the MSC is sitting.

MSC: WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!


MC: NOTHING MUCH AS YOU CAN SEE.


 The MSC looks at the book on the table with the camera also following. They both look at each other, before the MSC can say something the MC interrupts:

MC: HAVE YOU STARTED REVISING YET? CAUSE ENGLISH IS LOOKING LIKE A STRETCH.WHAT'S THE POINT OF BEING TESTED ON SOME DONNY THAT DIED 400 YEARS AGO!

The MSC gives a sly and sarcastic look towards the main character.


MSC: DO YOU EVER THINK ABOUT WHAT COMES OUT OF YOUR MOUTH?


MC: WHY ARE YOU TALKING.

The MSC looks at the glass window and slowly responds to the MA question.

MSC: COURSE I'VE STARTED REVISING, THE EXAM IS COMING UP, WHAT ELSE DO YOU EXPECT ME TO DO BUT NOT REVISE.

MC: YOU SAY THAT BUT HERE YOU ARE WAFFLING IN A LIBRARY.

Both characters give a small laugh.

                MSC: NAH, REAL TALK, HAVE YOU ACTUALLY STARTED.

The MA gives a fumbled expression indicating that he has done some revision.

MSC: AND I SWEAR YOU HAVE PROBLEMS READING.

MC: SO?

MSC: YOUR TOP PRIORITY SHOULD BE REVISING MAN, COME ON, YOU'RE BUGGING OUT.

The MC picks up the book he was holding before and shows it to the MSC.

MC: CAN'T YOU SEE I'M ALREADY REVISING!

 The book is a children's book. The MC starts to give light chuckles.The MSC has a serious and stern look on his face but then slowly starts to smile.

MC: NAH DON'T WATCH, I'M GOING TO SOME TUITION THAT HELPS ME OUT, SO FAR I'VE PATTERNED THE REST,IT'S JUST ENGLISH, MAN.

MSC: SAY NO MORE.

MC: ANYWAY COME LET'S GO

EXT: Both characters leave the library and proceed to walk down the street.
