Reflecting on my First Draft

 Today I finished my first draft of my script and knew instantly that I wasn't happy with it. To improve, I went through and worked out the elements that were weak and letting the script down. 

To identify these, I thought about some of my favourite TV shows and films and what made those strong. 

For example, focusing on one of my favourite TV shows New Girl, all the characters have very strong and identifiable traits and personalities. In my opinion, making them stronger through how genuine and 3D they come across to the audience. 

Things I want to improve on:

  • Define the different Juliets with stronger differing personalities 
  • Sort out Colin as an antagonist- what is his motive? plan? 
  • General continuity errors
My next step is to work through these and then re-reflect on my story to search again for weak areas.
