Final project Director screenplay draft

Bold Text is the action the criminal is doing while doing the monologue.

Fade to black

Criminal

Remember a time when you were so innocent, no one could see who you really were. I can tell you I never learnt or felt that one particular feeling, from day 1 my path was always to a life of crime. You can always try and be better but it never feels right. Black Screen for entire part of this speech.

EXT. PATH. DAY

Criminal

At age of 15 I was already out my 2nd visit to juvy for petty pickpocketing, Walking down a road in prison uniform and a bag. and that wasn’t the worst thing I did at that age,

EXT. CAR PARK . DAY

Criminal

I vandalized, stole cars, robbed, and even started working for a local car salesman to vandalise vehicles Scratching a logo into the car, also doing transferring jobs if you know what I mean. Putting a package into the bin being cautious. Did I feel guilty? No. Why would I, it was good pay, this made me feel alive. Counting the money in his hand.

INT. LIVING ROOM .DAY

Criminal

Yeah there is danger to this life. Yet if you learn early enough and you are good at it why stop, what am I doing wrong at the end of the day? Anyone caught in my cross fire deserves it. They deserve it by the way they speak of me, look at me or come at me. At the end of the day I get reputation as the more I do brings me more respect and power than having some sort of dead ass job. I am hated by the uncaring higher class yet they didn’t realise what I would become one day. One day they would be asking me for favours, or to corrupt systems, or certain assignments what could send me down for multiple life sentences. Shows beer bottles, money ash trays in dark room with their feet up on the table.

INT. CARPARK. NIGHT

Criminal

To them I Satan, just happened they were in my hell and being tortured and controlled by me, it was great I was a King with power, followers, money, but I could never change, I was going down a darker path I refused to turn back. When people talk about origin stories they are usually tragic or heroic mine is neither, I am what I have always been, a cold blooded son of a bitch. Is chasing someone with a gun

Running person

Tell Kurt Gilligan I didn’t co-operate with the Balts Group…please.( Very scared) then shoots it.

INT. ROOM. DAY

Criminal

If you want to hear everything you’re going to have to listen from the fucking beginning. (This part sounds like it’s a recording). A person in a suit looking at them self in the mirror. 

Female Officer

We’ve got him!

Sound Design 2

Sound Designers for sci-fi, Predator sound designer, Charles. L Campbell (E.T). These sound designers are the inspiration for this scene as they are able to combine common earthly sounds with unusual, unheard of sounds to create a sci-fi experience.

Sound designer action, Mark Mangini (Mad Max), Dane Davis (The Matrix). These sound designers have inspired me to use common action film sounds but at a quick pace and at a slow pace as that allows to build a more entertaining scene overall compared to having a scene with normal sound effects.

David Fincher lighting

David fincher is in my opinion the master of lighting in the film industry, He carries the same techniques and styles through all of his films no matter what the genre is. Most of his films are quite dark for example: Se7en, Zodiac and Gone Girl. In all of these films he uses dark lighting in a lot of the scenes as shown bellow. But he uses this dark style even in his happier films such as The social Network.
