Just a quick FYI: The things in parenthesis are for me to look back on when I'm filming. The character dialogue and the narration voiceover are going to be playing throughout the duration of the scene. You might have figured that out once you started reading it but I just wanted to explain so that you are aware. Alrighty here's the script!
THE SCRIPT: Rough Draft
THE SCRIPT: Rough Draft
Zora's voiceover: Meet Bria. She's the baby of the group, but don't let that fool you because like they say, age ain't nothing but a number. She's the fiercest 15-year old I've ever met. Our leader aka our mom adopted her when she was 10 years old after her biological parents were murdered in front of her. She developed severe PTSD so she chews gum to keep her brain distracted from her symptoms. She's the serious one, when we're on a mission she's laser-focused on one thing and one thing only, taking the bad guy down.
(She changes his tires and while working on it, she implants a tracking device under his car. She walks away and pops gum while rolling eyes)
Zora's voiceover: Luana, she's a total sweetheart. She's the epitome of charisma and sunshine. Luana has two sides, the sweet loving side, and the merciless crime-fighting ninja side. Our mom adopted her after her biological mother immigrated to America from Cuba when she was an infant. Her birth mother was in an abusive relationship and knew that she had to protect her baby girl so she left Luana with our mom. She feels compelled to help those who can't defend themselves and she fights like an elegant beast.
Valencia: (Valencia is speaking very loudly on the phone) There's absolutely no way! She's out of her mind if she thinks I'll let her wear my Louis Vuitton's!
Zora's voiceover: And that very obnoxious creature right there is my sister Valencia in her natural habitat (environment), the mall. Valencia was adopted into the group after her wealthy parents decided that they were unhappy raising a girl and treated her like a modern-day Cinderella. Our mother was undercover as an elementary school science teacher and had a feeling that Valencia was being abused so she looked into it. Her intuition was right and since money was their only motivation, she paid for Valencia's freedom. But just because she was no longer physically living with her wealthy family doesn't mean she gave up her luxurious lifestyle. Her parents transfer money to her bank account every month to pay her to stay away I guess.
(Jump cuts of Valencia in her bedroom doing different things while on the phone like sitting on the bed, doing her nails, etc. She has a robe on and is wearing a face mask)
Zora's voiceover: And that's me, Zora, I'm the oldest of the 4 of us and I am also the leader of this group. As you can probably tell, we fight criminals that take advantage of innocent people we avenge these victims. We were all at some point in our lives victims of wrongdoings so we take our jobs very seriously. I succeeded our mother's position as the leader of our group after she died fighting against the biggest villain of all time, cancer.
Zora's voiceover: Meet our latest bad guy, Victor Lin, he's a mafia leader that launders money through the H.E.L.P. organization which aids expecting mothers and mothers with small children with receiving the health care and other resources. Since he's behind this scam, women weren't actually getting the services promised. So once we were made aware of the situation, we hunted this guy down and have been watching and planning.
Victor: Before you do anything irrational, I have something to say. Your mother isn't dead. Surprise!
During the voiceover
- Tilt upwards to Bria riding on a skateboard, there's a close up of her chewing her gum and popping a bubble. The sound of the skateboard is profound as well as the rock music that she is listening to in her earbuds. The music playing in her earbuds then switches from diegetic to non-diegetic sound.
- The shot then zooms out from the close-up and becomes a long shot of her riding her skateboard down the street with her hands in her pocket looking unbothered. She hops off of her skateboard and starts walking down the street
- The camera then moves from the front of her to the back of her head and this is the transition that I will use to show her walking towards the gym
- Bria looks over at Luana who is in the parking lot (Eyeline match then POV shot). Luana winks at Bria (Pov shot). Luana pops the tires (low angle) and then walks away
(She changes his tires and while working on it, she implants a tracking device under his car. She walks away and pops gum while rolling eyes)
