Research and Planning 9: Our script

The script for our opening sequence is as follows:

When writing our script, the priority was making the portrayal of both Blake and Jen equal. Both Blake and Jen are strong characters, which is why they have an equal number of lines and are both capable of progressing the conversation. The pace of the conversation is quite fast, to show that both are able to respond to each other quickly and confidently. Whilst writing the script, this scene from Casino Royale was used for influence.

This clip is a good example of the tone we were trying to set through the conversation between Jen and Blake. The conversation between Bond and Vesper is driven by both characters and the dialogue has undertones of humour to make the conversation witty and interesting. The script was written to imitate this conversation but without the humour, as it would be out of place under the circumstances of our sequence.
