Pre ProductionWhat is below this is my final script for my final project for Directing the Fiction. This script was something I wrote last semester for a another class and I have gone through 5 drafts to get it to where it is now. Going through now and casting people to be in it and then working out shooting days. I have to keep a directors notebook for the class, but I am going to keep you guys updated as well. so yea enjoy the scriptINT. RAMAPO DORMS - MORNING. GARY WAKES UP LOOKS AT HIS CELL PHONE AND SEES IT IS 9:32. GARY GETS DRESSED AND AS HE HEADS OUT OF HIS DORM HE LOOKS OVER AT HIS ROOMMATE CARL WHO IS ASLEEP. AS GARY EXITS HE RUNS INTO HIS RA DAMIAN WHO IS A LITTLE TO CHIRPY FOR GARY’S LIKING. INT. RAMAPO HALLWAY DAMIAN Good Morning Gary! How are you? GARY Huh?...oh I am doing OK Damian just off to my class so I really should be goi- DAMIAN That’s good Gary. Listen I thought I let you know that you need to fill out your Spring Intent forms by 11:59 p.m. tonight otherwise. you won’t have your housing for the spring semester. GARY Ok...but shouldn’t we have received an e-mail telling us about the Spring Intent forms? DAMIAN Well yes, but unfortunately our e-mail system has been down. So we are doing it the old fashion way of telling by ear. Make sure you tell your roommate as well. See you later! Damian walks away and Gary turns around the corner to head off to his class. INT. RAMAPO DORMS - AFTERNOON. GARY ENTERS THE DORM AROUND 1:00 PM AND SEES CARL IS STILL ASLEEP. GARY WALKS OVER TO HIS DESK AND SITS DOWN TO HIS COMPUTER. HE BEGINS TO FILL OUT HIS SPRING INTENT FORM. CARL THEN WAKES UP AND STEPS OUT OF BED WEARING JUST HIS BOXERS AND HE DOES A LONG YAWN AND STRETCHES. CARL Morning GARY Afternoon Carl gets up walks over to the fridge and takes out the milk and begins to drink right from the carton. He walks behind Gary and leans over and puts his head right next to Gary’s ear which startles him and he covers the computer screen. CARL Ha-ha, you are so easy to scare man.... Listen I am going to hit up the gym do you wanna come? GARY No I am good. I got some work to finish up anyway CARL Alright well I will see you later. Oh we are out of milk by the way, you wanna pick up some more later? GARY Yea sure... Carl walks out of the dorm and Gary re-opens the Spring Intent form and he completes it and then closes his laptop. He looks over at the empty milk carton Carl left on top of the fridge. He walks over and picks it up and examines it for a few moments he then throws it into the recycling bin. Gary then pulls out his cell phone and calls his friend Mark. INT. 3RD FLOOR LOUNGE - AFTERNOON MARK WALKS BY AND SEES GARY SITTING IN A CHAIR RAPIDLY TAPPING HIS FOOT AGAINST THE GROUND. MARK Hey Gary...you ok? GARY Yea....Can I ask you something Mark? Do you like Carl? MARK I dunno, I mean he is a nice guy and all, but he can kinda be awkward. Why? GARY Well Damian told me this morning that we need to fill out our spring intent forms by 11:59 p.m. Tonight and to also tell our roommates MARK Yea...and? GARY I may have not told Carl about it. MARK ....and why is that? GARY Because living with Carl is a pain that’s why! MARK He really can’t be that bad can he? GARY ...HE USED MY RAZOR TO SHAVE HIS BEARD!!! MARK ....Ok. If he is such a pain then why don’t you talk to him GARY I shouldn’t. We are in college and you need to have responsibilities for your own actions MARK You’re one to talk Gary. All this time you been here complaining about Carl and while I can admit the razor situation is a dick move, you are choosing to avoid talking to Carl and come up with some kind of compromise and honestly that makes you just as much as a dick as him. Gary just sits there in bewilderment and does not say a word. Mark stands and begins to leave the lounge. MARK (CONT’D) Listen either man up and talk to Carl or continue to complain everyday. I’ll talk to you later. Mark exits the lounge and leaves Gary there staring into space. Gary begins to think back to all the bad things Carl has done over the semester, but these events are slowly overshadowed by him being just as bad as Carl. GARY ....fuck INT. RAMAPO DORMS NIGHT. GARY IS SITTING IN HIS DORM TAPPING HIS FOOT AGAINST THE FLOOR WAITING FOR CARL TO RETURN. AS HE WAITS GARY TURNS TOWARDS THE CLOCK TO CHECK THE TIME. 11:48 PM. GARY God damn it Carl where are you? Just as Gary is pulling out his cell phone to call Carl he hears the chiming of the key sliding to open the door and Carl walks through the door. He stumbles a little to his right but his a closet that breaks his fall. CARL Sup my bitch? GARY Nothing. Listen carl there is something you need to do and there isn’t.....much....time..... Did you just say sup my bitch? Carl just stares at Gary with a grin on his face GARY (CONT’D) ...Never mind, listen there is this spring intent you need to have complete by 11:59PM tonight otherwise you lose your housing. It’s currently 11:54pm so you only have a few more minutes. So get over here and lets get this done. CARL I would good sir, but there is one problem. GARY What’s that? CARL My legs have turned into jello Carl falls to the floor and face plants into the closet. Gary jumps up and rushes over to Carl. (continue in 1st comment) |
