Scripting the Story

Today we'll choose our story and take a look at how scripts are created.  After voting, we'll look at Sample Scripts, and open up Celtx, our scriptwriting software.  You'll work in teams of two to create a 1-page script that starts our story.

1.  Go to my Socrative page at http://socrative.com/ and join my Room:

    Vote for your favorite Pitch; the winner is the film we'll make!
2. Pick up a sample script (blue) and a decoded script (white) from the front of the room.
3. Watch the "Beautiful Rose" sample and decode the blue script. 
4. Choose a partner for this week's activity (writing 1 page of script for our story).
5. Use Spotlight to find "Celtx" and open it.
6. Together, we'll create a new script page, and you'll start creating your script!
7.  You'll find all the resources you need on our page at blendspace
