The task was difficult as we did not have enough context of the whole story or plot

Furthermore as we had not had experience with experience with certain aspects of the story.

But it was useful as we now have experience with the formatting we need

This task was challenging as we did not have enough context of the whole story or plot, therefore we had to assume certain aspects of the story. therefore research into the story would help.

The formatting of a script was challenging to follow because we have not had a lot of practice at creating screenplays.

This task was useful as it made us more observant to details and making sure we include every detail regarding the character, setting or actions.

reflection:

Me and George worked well together in order to complete this task within the given timeframe as well as working collaboratively while writing this.

It was also kind of tricky in order to fit all of the details we deemed to be important into such a small timeframe.

We could of worked better if we knew more context of the book and how the opening scene reflects the rest of the world seen throughout the book.

This was a difficult task as we were not given the entire story, so we did not have the big picture. As well as having a short period of time to use and understand the screenplay structures, which made us run out of time. In future, I would do research on the story, so I understand the scene, as well as making sure I understand the structure of screenplays, through looking at examples.

Reflection: I found this task slightly challenging as I wasn’t comfortable with the layout of a screenplay. However, I found it allowed me to be quite creative with the world building by creating the dystopian image through the setting.

Difficulty:

Not having the whole script made it difficult to describe things such as the buildings as we don’t know whether it is in a nice or bad part of the town.

It difficult to work in pairs due to individual differences.

What can I do to improve:

Have an example script to make sure that formatting is easier to present.

Do research on time and context to make sure that the script is accurate to the story.

We practiced writing a screenplay, adapting Orson Welles’ 1948 novel 1984 from a small extract taken from the introduction.

I worked with George to adapt the opening section of George Orwell’s 1948 book “1984”
