Script Writing


INT. THE COFFEE SHOP - LATE AFTERNOON

In the busy coffee shop, natural light spilling in through the windows along with some light from lamps. CHLOE is sitting down sipping coffee, HARRY walks in texting unaware that Chloe is there, Chloe notices him.

CHLOE (Nervous and hesitant, questioning)
Harry? Umm… hi… Harry? Hello? It’s me… Chloe.

HARRY Umm hi… do I know you? 
(Suddenly realises that it’s Chloe)
Oh hiya, how have you been these last few years, I 
haven’t seen you in a while?

CHLOE (Her breathing speeds up, she beings hyper ventilating)


(V.O.) of Chloe talking to herself and a heart beat gradually getting louder over the top, during this Chloe looks like she is struggling for words 

Oh lord, I haven’t  seen him since we finished secondary school. Okay Chloe don’t muck this up… you’ve been in love with him for years. This is your chance?

(V.O.)Stops and Chloe begins talking again 

CHLOE (Still nervous and playing with her sleeves)
Umm, yeah I’ve been great actually but there is  something I need to tell you… I tried to tell you before but I’ve never had the courage…. 

HARRY (Still busy texting, not engaged in the conversation)
Can this wait a minute? I just need to do some work, we will rearrange to have a chat over coffee some other time? 

CHLOE (Feeling downbeat and hesitant)
Oh. I guess so, I’m pretty busy but can you do this time next week?


Harry nods and walks out of the coffee shop still glued to his phone. Chloe stays in there and returns to her seat. Cut to next scene

The act of asking random people to give you money to create your product. What is the film called? What was the Kickstarter project for? How long did they spend developing the concept? How many days do the most successful campaigns run for? What figure did they decide on? How did they promote the project? ...
