Commentary of the Script
We have tried to limit the amount of dialogue and speech for the characters throughout the short film as short films tend to be more visual with not much dialogue or talking. This makes it more interesting, creative and clearer for the audience especially was we are using basic cameras and the sound of the dialogue wouldn't be very clear. We have used a variety of different locations to make the film more diverse and interesting instead of the whole thing being filmed in one location. We have chosen very realistic locations that we are able to film in without being restricted eg if we filmed in a public place like a shop then we would need to get permission as we wouldnt be able to just turn up and start filming. We have chosen to film in school and around school for convenience and because its a reliable location.
