BSA 231 W6

We were supposed to write a script ready to go for this week's class

EXT. SOCCER FIELD
Some kids are playing football in the distance, but the camera is zooming in on the under bush of a hedge other side of the fence. We keep moving in to something that looks like hair. The ball violently smashes into the hair and reveals a face, blood starts dripping down it - it’s a girl. She’s not moving, one of the boys investigate
INT. BATHROOM
Our main character stands at the sink taking a pill, he’s talking on the phone to a significant other of some kind expressing his anxiety about the case and general frustration with the team.
He takes the pill and it has an effect on him, we get a voice over establishing what the general setup is - that the world has become addicted to a new drug that is so good its been legalized.
EXT. SOCCER FIELD
The detective walks out, draping his detective coat over his shoulders, he’s tired.
There is commotion outside, some police officers are already on the scene and there are bystanders, as the detective walks we pan to reveal the body in the distance. It’s surrounded by curious kids, a police officer is trying to keep them at bay but not doing a very good job.
Detective yells at kids who are tampering with the body, asks policeman who's there where the forensics team is
- They keep going at it and he pushes one aside, someone across the field tries to get his attention - it's the constable in detective gear, the kid kicks a ball back at him, policeman takes kids away, parents arrive complaining
- People arrive in a car, it's the commissioner and his coneys, they discuss the case, the pretend detective trips randomly falling over not being accustomed to his new leather jacket, they acknowledge this
-
INT. HALLS
The characters all enter the building, glad to be rid of the cold, they immediately start making themselves comfortable. One of the officers is tasked with interviewing a potential witness
We cut from this to the main meeting:
INT. LOCKER ROOM
The officer interviews the man, who is a chicken farmer, a proud breeder of cocks,
INT. CONFERENCE ROOM
They discuss it with the Head of Police and the family (who include a father, mother, older brother and younger sister)
