SUN IN NOVEMBER

SCENE ONE: INT: BEDROOM - AFTERNOON

MUSIC: NEW YORK INSPIRED MUSIC PLAYING FROM PHONE

DISSOLVE FADE into this TEENAGER’s BEDROOM, as we enter the room meeting
Riley, a 17-year-old teenage girl, sitting on her floor against her bed
with a notebook in front of her as she is listening to music from the
speaker of her phone.

Staring in and out of this notebook, written in bold in the notebook,

“Ideas”. Staring around, maybe a tear being wiped from her face, she
finds herself out of words. Tapping her pen against the notebook losing
patience.

Riley looks at her phone, picking her phone up with “One new voicemail”
which has been left from a week ago. The resistance of clicking on this
voice note breaks her apart, not in the way that makes you cry, but in
the way that makes you feel a little bit of regret.

With all the urge to click that voice note, she finally clicks the
notification, and the voicemail begins to play.

END MUSIC TRACK

Voicemail (Grandma Cathy) O.S

Hi Riley, sorry, I thought we were going to be having a chat

on Sunday but guessed we must both have had scheduling issues.

INT: AT A FRIENDS HOUSE – LATE NIGHT

FLASHBACK to this dark room with many teenagers dancing to the music as
Riley is moving past them having a good time. Above them there is this
orange light that fills up the room, leaving what’s left of highlighted
silhouettes enjoying teenage youth.

END FLASHBACK.

Riley wipes a tear from her face as she listens to that last sentence,
instantly we see regret shining across her face.

Voicemail (Grandma Cathy) O.S

Yeah but um, I just got this new phone, so I hope it sounds
good on your end ha ha. You know I’m not the best when it comes to
anything technological. Back in my day, we only had a cup and a
 string to talk to each other ha ha, no I am just kidding we did
have a phone that the whole family shared.

As Riley is listening to this, she begins to start tapping her pen

against the notebook on the letters of “Ideas”. Leaning forward, then
leaning backwards. Maybe with a little smile covering her face.

Riley is standing in front of this book with a look of disappointment in

herself. With a passing of time, we CUT to having the camera still in
the same place as before, while she is spinning in the chair, still
looking at the notebook.

Voicemail (Grandma Cathy) O.S

So, I know last time you were telling me how you were thinking
about what to write about for your book idea, well, ha ha, I mean I
know it will be great since it runs in the family.

SCENE 2: EXT: A FIELD FILLED WITH FLOWERS AND GRASS (SUNSET)

FLASHFORWARD to a time where Riley is standing in a field with this glow

overlooking her as she stares at the sky, the sun shining, embracing the
sky. The sound of birds, the wind slowly breezing through.

Voicemail (Grandma Cathy) O.S

But don’t stop, don’t give up on that writing. As writer’s we
write for a purpose, to write stories for the ones who need it the
most. (Cough, Cough) It might feel so hard to write one more
letter, one more word. We are in control of our own destiny so
don’t let this pull you down.

EXT: WALKWAY NEXT TO RIVER – SUNSET

FLASHFORWARD playing as the voicemail is heard, RILEY running along the

walkway, out of breath as the sunset fills the sky. Lifting her head
back trying to stop the emotions from coming out.

END FLASHBACK.

SCENE 3: INT: BEDROOM - AFTERNOON

RILEY continuously tapping against her notepad resisting the urge to

write. The sound of Ticking meeting the tapping, continues.

POV OF RILEY standing up experiencing going in and out of fainting. Here

we meet a flashing MONTAGE.

FLASH.

INT: DARK HOUSE PARTY – EVENING

As seen before, we revisit the party flashback, Riley having this

picture constantly stuck in her mind.
FLASH.

EXT: MIDDLE OF THE FIELD – AFTERNOON – SUNSET

As seen before, revisiting the FLASHFORWARD, of Riley standing in the

middle of a field having the wind breezing over.

FLASH.

INT: RILEY’S BEDROOM – AFTERNOON

Riley experiencing such hallucinations or fainting, who knows, trying to
grab to grips with what is happening, holding her head so tight, blood
stopping in her veins from reaching her forehead. Tick, Tick, Tick.

BLACK SCREEN.

SCENE FOUR: EXT: FIELD FILLED WITH FLOWERS AND GRASS (SUNSET)

RILEY (V.O)

And all of the noise became instantly silent. For the first
time I didn’t no what to write.

Riley standing in the middle of this field, looking up at the sky, all
we can see is the sunset filling the sky, what might be up there?
Grandma Cathy?

RILEY (V.O)

The passing of Grandma Cathy reminded me how incredibly lucky

we are to be able to walk one more day on this earth. To smell the
flowers as I walked the empty neighbourhoods, the fresh smell of
coffee in the morning, sounds of birds chirping in the trees right
when you wake up, Grandma Cathy taught me how much we should
appreciate every second of the life we are given.

EXT: DOCK AT THE RIVER – SUNSET

Riley, carrying on from before, running from all these emotions until
she stopped at the dock. Catching her breath, looking at the ducks in
the water.

RILEY (V.O)

Looking deep into the sky, I can see your smile, hear your
laughter, but most importantly, for me, being lucky enough to have
known you became a moment in time. A moment that turned the world
into a better place.

And I want you to know that the hardest part wasn't saying
goodbye, the hardest part was knowing I wasn't going to have you in
my life. I love you.

BLACK SCREEN
SOUND: CHILDREN PLAYING AT THE PARK, WATER MOVING IN THE RIVER

FADE IN as we see Riley sitting on the bench, taking out a paper out of
her pocket, finally she has these words said out, when it felt the
hardest to write. She looks up…

As for the flashback scene, I will
not be recording audio however, if
need be, the audio quality is
quite great as it is soundproofed,
meaning sound is quite smooth.

Power Information: Solutions:

There are multiple plug points, and power
sources available to be able to charge any
equipment that it needs charging. I have
the capacity to charge any equipment if
needed.
Hazards:
As there is a lot of equipment that is in the
studio, since there will be more people in
this space, there is a risk of equipment
breaking such as the studio lights or any
laptops around etc. With also having this
amount of equipment, if there is water
spilt, it can cause fires or general damage
to technical equipment.
Solutions:
I will make sure that the crew and actors
are aware of the equipment and will make
sure that it will be me and anyone I choose
to, will handle the equipment to avoid any
damaged equipment. As for the water
damage, I will make sure that there isn’t
any water or drinks in the studio while
filming to make sure that there isn’t
damage to health or equipment.

I will make sure camera

Recording dialogue for Riley’s eulogy at the end of film.

Lighting Information: Solutions:

Sound Information: Solutions:

As the space is designed to be a radio
booth, there is soundproof materials
built into the walls to block out he
sound echoes. There is a mic built
into the table for easier access,
which means I will be able o record
the sound way better. Slight issue is
that the space isn’t big enough for
all my actors to in without getting
cramped.
As I only have one actor,
this will not be an issue
however, if I do have crew,
it will not be too many
people that will be in there
with me and my actor.

Power Information Solutions:

There are many plug points to charge
any equipment, the laptop I need with
the software is already plugged into
the wall. There isn’t much space to
have a laptop on the table.
Hazards
Since there is so much equipment on
the table,if there is water and it
spills, it could cause a fire.
I will rather print out the
scripts so my actors can read
off of them and not off the
laptop which will make it
quicker.
Solutions:
I will make sure to not take
any water in with me or my
actors to prevent any hazard
to happen.

day.
Permissions:
Since the location is available to the public, there is no
permissions needed however, I have listed the number above, that is
listed online if we run into any problems

Suitability / shots for production (scene numbers)

This location has places where there is footpaths and even a dock
which works perfectly as I wanted a dock in my scenes.

Scene 2, Shot 2,3,4

Scene 4, Shot 5,6,7
Scene 5, Shot 1, 2

Lighting Information: Solutions:

Natural lighting – this could vary
as the entire location is under
natural lighting.
I will check the forecast for
sunny forecast day to make
sure that the entire location
has better lighting, along
with this we could also shoot
during sun set hours between
18:00 – 19:00 to achieve a
better lighting situation to
use.

Sound Information: Solutions:

There is a river so there is water
moving noises, along with other
members of the public walking in
the walkway so that could also
contribute to the sound.
As I am not filming with
recording dialogue, this will
not be an issue, I will make
use of foley soundscapes to
create environment.

Power Information Solutions:

There is no power sources or plug
points around as it is in a
natural, outdoors area.
If necessary, we could go to
the town centre where there
is cafes with plug points to
charge any equipment
batteries.

Hazards
Since this location is next to the
river, there is a risk of any of
the crew or equipment falling into
the river.
Solutions:
For this hazard, I will make
sure that the actors and crew
are aware that they need to
maintain a distance between
the river and themselves to
avoid anyone getting hurt. I
will also make sure if they
are comfortable to stand next
to the river however, I will
also make sure that we are
filming at a safe distance
from the river.

CONTINGENCY PLAN
Weather only being overcast in the next
few weeks when I need sunset-type
weather.
The risk of my equipment being out of
charge.
Over the last week, I have been looking
continuously at the weather forecast, I
It mainly says that the weather is going
to be overcast or rainy – which is going
to delay my filming if I have to wait for
the weather to be sunny for the aesthetic
I want. I have looked into several ways
to beat this and one way I found that I
can mask a sunset in post editing phase
if needed, building onto from the
overcast weather. However, I will have to
delay filming if it starts raining and I
am on location. Unfortunately, there
isn’t much I can do about the weather
since it can change from hour to hour
however, I have to make do with what I
have and use postproduction to fix
colouring if the scenes have quite a blue
tint from the weather.
If the equipment has chargeable batteries
such as the camera or lighting stand, I
will make sure that I have the charger
with me or have extra charged batteries
in case there aren’t any plug points
around.
Some scenes I have planned to film
include extra actors but what if my
actors cancel on me.
Not having enough time to edit or
finishing my editing in time.
For these scenes, in this case, I have
planned that these actors won’t really
have a character profile or any dialogue
so they are only essential for being
‘friends’ of the character, therefore if
need be, I can change on the day. For
this reason, I will also have extra actor
consent forms that I can give out if my
actors change.
I have planned out more time in my
production schedule for editing a first
draft and having time to micro edit if
need be in order to maximise my chance to
making my production’s editing perfect
for submission. In my last productions, I
have found this part to be the case so
this time round I have planned out how I
can combat this issue by having more time
to edit since I find it more complicated
than filming or planning.
