Scripting (Yet Again)

​

The official script, which is posted below, was written by me, but we worked on the content as a team, so here is a summary of who did what.(The only reason for this “collaboration “teamwork” was that Tashfa had to write the entire script by herself, but she ended up ghosting us, so Esha and I saved the day).

Tashfa developed the voiceover content for the journalist (yes, she took her time, and we had to remind her to give us the script). We wanted a bilingual narration in the voiceover, but not just any old story telling voiceover. We wanted it to be dramatic in the sense that it appeared as if the agitated and overworked journalist was trying to write the script (I feel like the journalist while writing this post), and I believe we succeeded in doing so.

I wrote the script for the talking heads (with some assistance from Esha when I went brain dead). Because we wanted more than one talking head without exceeding the speed limit, we didn’t want a very elaborate set of dialogues for the talking heads.
