Scripts and Dialog

Please read this short and to the point article about writing dialog.

The author has written a number of well known movie scripts, books, etc.

Taking the information from this short piece, write a short dialog (60 sec) between two characters. Here is your information, now fill in the pieces:

• Ext: High School Exterior, lunch room (or somewhere students eat lunch)
• 
  
• Action: 2 friends are having a conversation with each other. 
• 
  
• Dialog: you fill in the blanks. 

Please use script format.

After writing, have 2 friends perform the dialog.

Reflect on your work at the end of the class period in today's blogspot comment area. Here are the reflective points:

1. Upon listening to your dialog, how was the flow?
2. Did your dialog lend itself to conversation?
3. What would you do to improve?

Use Rawscripts so that you can share your script with 2 friends and me!
