Script

The script has proven to be one of the hardest jobs. At first we thought that we could make it quite brief about what they're down there for and have as little dialogue as possible. But there needs to be some information for the audience to grab onto and to be able to understand some parts of it otherwise they won't feel involved and therefore that'll get rid of the suspence. So we came up with the idea of instead of them saying about what they are trying to find, they will have a folder full of laminated sheets of paper which have pictures of what they are trying to find. This enables the audience to have an awareness of why they are down there, but also makes the audience ask questions about what it is and why it is so important for them to be getting this from underwater. We've decided as a group that they will be trying to find some silver from a shipwreck, we got this idea from a news article that we found talking about men that went down in a submersible to find some silver.

•  To make this sequence realistic we needed to use some technical words and/or include technical devices (e.g cameas).
• We've also included the base above ground with dialogue through a walkey talkey so this enables to audience to understand that there is a base (group) of them involved in seeking what they want from underwater, and also gets the audience familiar with the voice of the man on the walkey talkey who is going to become the main character of the film.
•  Through the dialogue we have created suspence, we wanted to include that they could see something (we will also show this will camera and mise-en-scene, but also we know that people are usually vocal about problems that they are aware of when they are with people/friends.
• So by incorporating the fear of the two men and base into the speech the audience see how afraid the men are which creates suspense as they are the ones who are supposed to be in control.
