Writing Copy: Script Taxi driver.

I used microsoft word to make this. Including sluglines saying where and when, doing alignment to make it clear, effectib=ve and easy to read. And adding dialogue becasue it is a script and makeing sure its all in present tense. I think it went well becaus ei didnt need any help, to get a better grade i could help someone else.


EXT.SIDE OF THE STREET – NIGHT
HELEN stands on the pavement, on the phone to her friend FRANCESCA, gossiping about the night out ahead of them. HELEN Keeps desperately putting her hand out for a taxi.
HELEN
Ok, so you need to meet me just outside the pub i will hopefully be there in half an hour. (Talking down the phone)
HELEN finally gets the attention of one taxi driver who pulls up alongside, she gets in.
HELEN
Hi, finally got a taxi, I have been waiting for twenty five minutes! Anyway, can you take me to Brentwood high street, and there is a little pub at the end of the road. If that ok please.
HELEN waits for a reply, there was no reply.
HELEN
Umm hello...?
The TAXI DRIVER still doesn’t reply.
HELEN
Hello... Can you take me to the little pub at the end of the road, if that’s alright?
(Pause, awaiting reply)
              HELEN
Look sorry to waste to your time I will just get another taxi.
Before HELEN can get out the TAXI driver locks the doors from the inside so she can’t get out.
              HELEN
          Excuse me you just locked the door, I need to get out.
The TAXI driver ignores her and drives off.
              HELEN
Sorry this is not the way that I wanted to go its the other way, I want to go to the pub.
Yet again The TAXI driver ignores her.
              HELEN
Listen you can take this turning here to the right and still get to the pub.
The TAXI driver still doesn’t listen and goes straight on. It comes to a dead end. The engine went off, there was silence.
             

Writing copy: Script boyfriend cheating.

To do this writing copy i used microsoft word on a blank document, to do this i had to use courier new text, used a slug line which tells you where and when. including good alignment which makes it clear and easy to read. I also had to do dialogue. I think it went well becuase i didnt need any help to do it.

EXT.BUS STOP – NIGHT
JAMIE sits at the bus stop. GRACE sits down next to her, she looks worried.
GRACE
I need to tell you something...
JAMIE
          Ok, but be quick. I am going to meet JOSH.
GRACE
It’s about JOSH.
JAMIE
What about him?
JAMIE looks confused. GRACE looks hesitant bits her lip.
GRACE
Well he... he... (Stutters)
JAMIE
Spit it out!
GRACE
He cheated on you!
JAMIE
What!? He would never do that to me, he said he loved     me... (JAMIE looks hurt)
GRACE
I’m sorry you had to find out like this, but I saw him, I saw with my own eyes. Kissing someone!
JAMIE
Who did he kiss?
GRACE
Well, um... it was... it was JADE!(Blurts it out)
JAMIE
What!!!! She is supposed to be one of my best mates why would she do that to me! I hate her!
GRACE
(Cautiously) I, I might be wrong it might not have been her, I mean I couldn’t see the face quite well.
JAMIE
I know its her she has been acting weird with me for the past two weeks, I knew something was up. But I had no idea what it was!
GRACE
(Nervously) Oh please don’t tell anyone I told you, they will hate me for grassing them up!
JAMIE ponders for a second passing back and forth.
               JAMIE
I know, why don’t we trick them, then catch them together that way I will see for myself and no one thinks you have grassed them up!
GRACE
(Looks relieved) Yeah that’s a good idea!

3 column layout

I used InDesign to make this, placing pictures and adding placeholder text. This was the first thing i did in InDesign, an di think it went ok becasue i didnt need a lot of help.

Text wrap

I used InDesign to make this, i made a new document including 3 columns and making sure it is portrait. Then i added all  the frames then placed the picture then added placeholder text. I then used the pen tool to go around the body of the picture so the writing can be seen. I also made the first letter drop cap. I think it went well because i did not need anyhelp at all, and i could help others.

Double Page spread

I used InDesign to make it, I made a new document making sure i had 3 columns and it was two pages. Then i inserted frames and added text and pictures then made sure the i used text wrap and the stroke tool, i also adjusted it by adding a drop cap at the start, i think it went well because i didnt need any help. But to make it better i could have added more with the pictures at the bottom.

Get the look.

I used photoshop to do this task. I had to place images then mask them and the place them onto the page so they all fitted properly i did that using free transform. Then i added text boxes and put them to the side and on the clothes that i had placed then i changed the opacity so you could see through. I changed the colours of the text and boxex to match the colour scheme of my work. i also added shadows to the clothes and it made it look effective and professional.

Fashion Frames

To do this i used pohtoshop. The first thing i had to do was the usual steps of: File-New-Place and then i placed these picture frames onto the screen then masked out the picture inside it then i placed images of clothes and masked them and placed them in the frame making sure the layers of each image was right. I think my work went well becaus ei did it all by myself and could help others but i think that i could have done more by adding images at the top like the picture that was the example we had to follow, and change the opacity of the images to to make it more effective.
The improvements i made were adding other images:
