Smile: Script

Being suggested since the start for when it came to planning our videos and organising it all, the website Celtx was in use to help create and complete my script which has been put together for the Smile campaign I am taking part in. For result, a TV advertisement project showing how stress affects all young people as unbelievable as it sounds to older generations. Below the original draft will be found followed by an updated script leading to the final product...

ORIGINAL

Having the original ready, things did come up and get in the way of certain scenes and actors being replaced causing a change in script. Only twice though so not too much change was needed between the first and the last. All relating as to why will be mentioned underneath each link showing the edits weren't put in place for no reason or the chance of my mind switching between ideas.

UPDATED
Having a back up idea for one of the both parts of the scene including a college classroom and the second half being set at the stables the selected cast member goes to, there was the possible chance of issues trying to intervene. So rather than risking it, leaving me a few shots less, a backup plot was put in place but only changing them shots ready. 
Fast forward to where arrangements are being made to start on filming, the second script has come to more use for the advertisement than the original did as disruptions managed to get in the way of the first initial plan, as expected. Well...wasn't EXACTLY what we expected. Different issues got in the way of filming compared to what originally came to mind leading us to have a back-up scene.That relating to not being permitted to film on the scripted locations like how the first part being located at Hoffle College in Durham, somewhere I don't even attend and the idea of interrupting someones lesson just to film for a project might not have been appreciated. Then the second half being on private land capturing footage of someone else's horses might not have been welcomed either. Unfortunate but at least there was zero disruption in the production having the second script aside ready.

FINAL SCRIPT
Running into some trouble for a different scene to the last script, a change of actor has been put in place due to the first actress not being able to travel through from Consett anytime this week. So to get the filming over and done with, the script had to be edited once again, this being the last time, making the part more fitting for the one taking over the role as no doubt they wouldn't have wanted to do nor been comfortable enough  to act out the dance sequence inserted into the script beforehand. Really it's still a win, I'll be able to get the footage taken sooner rather than later with an actor I can rely on being available for filming without question or any chance of risking the shots not being taken in time or even at all. Especially when I need them complete now.
