Week Two Studio

This week I got to Studio to find Jeremie had received my email with a copy of the finished draft of the script. He seemed really happy with it, even though I was not completely confident with it, so we started working on the project concept document and discussing other issues such as the storyboards we wanted to start work on and locations. Once we finished the concept document, we divided up the sections on the project plan so we could work on that at home, and put it all together next week and have it done and out the way. By the time we had sorted all this out, we still had not been contacted by Mark (our contact staff member). So we got ready to go as soon as he saw us, thinking it would only be a few minutes. Boy, was I wrong! He came along and pointed out what I thought was the main issue with the script - the lack of climax at the end. After a long discussion and pointing out some similar examples, he had me completely rethinking the script. I don't think it will set us back; in fact in some ways it may even make it easier to film, but does mean I need to make a completely fresh start on the script, so I plan to spend at least part of the weekend rewriting it and doing some research on some similar stories.
