For our trailer we needed to decide on a script/dialogue for the scenes to make the footage look as real and believable as possible. Beth and I have decided to script the drive in scene (coming into the school for the first time) and then have the interviews (with the girls) improvised while we asked them about their own experiences. We found this worked really well as they expressed themselves better.
For the other dialogue that was between myself and Beth we decided that we wanted it to be improvised but the convocation had to have a point of moving forward the story onto the next scene. Example of this is when we both go into the bathroom to discover that the taps are on full force with no one around. Beth- "We heard a loud bang from upstairs" Me (Phoebe)- "What the hell, these weren't on before." Beth- "They definitely weren't". This leads us to go and investigate the noises coming from upstairs.
The hardest part of the dialogue was to not sound too rehearsed and actually sounding shocked. (I am no actress so this was very hard for me...)
Hope this explains what we have done or are doing.
Phoebe
