Draft of script

I have decided to call our film "The Phonecall" for the time being. This may or may not change depending on whether we think of a better name. As this is a rough draft, we are unsure on certain aspects (these aspects are the ones which appear in red text) and we shall discuss as a group how we want the final result to be

--------------------------------------------------

“THE PHONECALL”

EXT. HOUSE

Isolated, quiet at night time

INT. LIVING ROOM (or BEDROOM)

LUCY is sitting (or laying) on sofa (or bed if in bedroom) reading a book. All of a sudden a phone rings. LUCY puts book to one side and gets up

INT. (WHEREVER PHONE IS)

LUCY walks up to the phone and picks it up

LUCY

Hello?

(White noise can be heard from the phone)

Hello? (Waits 2 or 3 seconds) Hello? (Puts phone down)

INT. LIVING ROOM (or BEDROOM)

LUCY sits (or lays) back down and starts to read again. The phone can be heard again. LUCY sighs and gets back up

INT. (WHEREVER PHONE IS)

LUCY picks up the phone

LUCY

Hello?

(White noise can be heard again)

(Slightly annoyed) Hello? I can’t hear you

LUCY puts the phone down again. As she is just leaving the room the phone rings yet again. LUCY looks around looking more irritated. She walks up to the phone

LUCY
Hello? (agitated)

LUCY sighs at the sound of white noise and then puts the phone down and unplugs it. As LUCY walks away, all of the lights briefly turn off. After some shuffling around, the lights come back on.

INT. LIVING ROOM (OR BEDROOM)

LUCY enters the room and then freezes on the spot as she notices that the pages of her book have been torn out and scattered over the floor.

This is as much as we have developed our script so far. We are going to make regular alterations as we decide how to end the sequence.
