Preliminary Task

For the 'prelim' task i had several idea's to work with. Considering the task its self was so broad it was very easy for adaptation. The task was to: film a short sequence of someone entering through a door and containing basic dailogue. We are to show a scene of continuity following the basic filming rules such as the 180 degree rule, match-on-action, rule of thirds, no jump shots, basic camera movement (panning and tracking) and etc.

My pitch idea's were:
- Patient, Doctor, Nerves
- Husband, Wife, Abusive
- Student, Friends, Relationships
- Student, Counsellor, Emotional
- Patient, Physciatric, Suspence
- Lovers, Romance, Proposal
- Student, Lovers, Lustual

As a group we decided for the 'abusive husband'. We developed a ruff story board and a very basic script. We decided to include any physical abuse as that will appear far too controversial and detailed for the task at hand.

Basic plot for the scene:
The husband is extremely tempermental and his anger rages as his wife does not prepare him a coffee to his fancy. The wife begins making him the coffee and forgets to add sugar. She enters through the door from the kitchen and hands the husband the coffee. She sits down and they begin a standard conversation (with a tense atmosphere). He then sips the coffee and begins verbally assualting his wife, this will be a 'nice' climatic end.

Script:
*Wife makes coffee without sugar and walks through the door*
WIFE: There you are darling
*hands over coffee*
WIFE: Did George sort out those files for you?
HUSBAND: I'm home now not at work, so shut up.
*Wife is hesitent*
WIFE: Prince rance today, him and Ruby wanted us to go round on Friday for dinner. I told them i'll let them know tomorrow.
HUSBAND: I don't want to see them Friday, I want to go to the pub.
WIFE: We havn't been out in such a long while, i think it will be nice.
HUSBAND: I just want to go pub.
WIFE: Alright hun, i'll tell them we can't make it.
*dramatic pause*
WIFE: Drink your coffee it's fetting cold.
HUSBAND: Women, don't tell me what to do.
*dramatic pause*
**drinks coffee**
HUSBAND: Fucking whore
*spits coffee*
HUSBAND: Silly slut! There's no sugar. Stupid Bitch, you should know this by now.
