END
I understand that we will need to try and follow this, as it is one of the main ingredients for our final production. Our production team and actors need to be well aware of the script as it can save valuable time.
I enjoyed being the scriptwritter because it helped me appreciate the amount of detail needed for the production team to understand the directions and how to present them.
Camera and editing instructions need to be separate from dialogue, as a means to not to confuse the team. I wrote the dialogue in a bold style with a distinct font, aiding the actors to differentiate between when spoken language and unspoken language; it wouldn't seem like a professional company if the actors were confused and spoke the camera and editing directions!
