My role on the production team is the director. This means I
will have to hire my cast key the crew members. For my group I need to create
the story boards and the shooting scripts for the film. I also need to work with
the editor to make sure the end results of the film are perfect. A key role for
me is the always be on set to make sure everything is being followed and that
my assistant directors are following out my orders. I will need to work closely
with the assistant directors and the camera crew.

Pitch proposal script
Rosie Lee Jackson was transformed
when she was ensnared, enmeshed and engulfed upon a furtive stealthy secret as
this. Girls who had only known the devious, duplicitous, deceiving girl of Bermondsey
High would have failed to recognise this. So who is Rosie Lee and what are the
mysteries behind these deadly secret lies?
Our mockumentuary follows the
lives of the stereotypical teenage characters going to a mixed school and
coping with the ups and downs of teenage life. This show will look deep into
the life of the ever so popular Rosie Lee and her disciples, Poppy and Daisy; also
known as thunder and lightning. Three mean, arrogant cold-hearted girls who
dominate the whole of their image.
So stay tuned in to see what he
teenage life in troublesome secondary school may reveal.

Analysing data
My target is a group
of females who are between the ages of 11- 15.
They are unemployed because they are still high school students. 57% of
my audience like to watch mockumentuarys such as Little Britain and Come Fly
with Me. However a majority of them like to watch Summer Heights High. On
average my data shows that of the 100% who completed my survey 43% would give
on a scale of one to ten how much they like watching mockumentuarys a seven.
From this data I can conclude that my audience like to watch mockumentuarys
that have comedy in them considering that they are a young target audience.
Therefore in my mockumentuary so not to lose the audience we would include some
comedy in my mockumentuary. However I think that it would be bad to include
comedy in our mockumentuary because it may cause the audience to not understand
the mockumentuary and it may also make the mockumentuary seem
unprofessional.

Mockumentuary Script Scene 1 and 2
Act 1. Scene 1
EXT.
SCHOOL. MONDAY
It is a new
term at Bermondsey High and the entire senior year is on their way to the
school hall for their school briefing. ROSIE, who is the most popular girl in
school, enters the school with her two disciples. DAISY, who is the smartest
out of the two walks to ROSSIES’ right with DAISY who is not bright at all,
stands to ROSSIES’ left.
ROSIE
So
girls who do you think is going to be elected for prom queen. I think I should
be don’t you think. I mean I am the prettiest out all of you and besides who
wouldn’t want to elect…………
DAISY
(DAISY
glares at ROSSIE in rage. She doesn’t say anything but shows and expression of
pity.)
ROSIE
So
yeah. What do you think DAISY? Don’t tell me you have drifted off again. You’re
so stupid, when do you ever consider my feelings huh. I think someone owes
someone and apology. Don’t you.
DAISY
(look’s at ROSIE with pure frustration,
however decides to speak back to her with a rather sarcastic tone)
Ow
I’m sorry ROSIE please forgives me I didn’t mean to be mean. I promise I will
be good promise!
ROSSIE
(gives DAISY a sneer)
ROSIE sees
one of her boyfriends entering the gate decides to go to him without finishing
her sentence, flaunting herself as if seeking attention first from RYLAND
before she actually gets to him
Daisy
(Rolls
her eyes as if she doesn’t care, then decides to follow into the school hall)
INT.
MONDAY. SCHOOL HALL
All the
girls and boys enter the school with some faces showing utter excitement with
other showing no trace of facial expression whatsoever. At the far corner of
the hall it where the three girls ROSIE, DAISY and POPPY have plan to sit
however when they get there, serious trouble awaits them.
POPPY (looking and the girls
on their table)
Uhm
ROSIE, who exactly are those hideous girls sitting on our table. They’ve got a
face you just wanna slap. I mean eww look at that one’s nails, when was the
last time she got them clipped? Three words girl. MAN. E. CURE. Wait that is
three words right.
ROSIE (looks at POPPY then DAISY)
Slap
her would you DAISY. And yes it’s one word you fish face. When are you going to
stop eating? Maybe if stopped eating all that crap that you like stuffing
yourself with you might just have enough space inside that pea seized brain of
yours to fit at least the smallest kind of common sense but no. You’d rather
stuff yourself.
(ROSIE ties
to relax before going to the girls on the table still with the bitter
frustration left on her face)
DAISY (apologetically does as she is
told)
POPPY
(acting as if the slap meant nothing with her face as straight as steel)
All of the
three girls approach their table to find and find a girls sitting on their
chairs.
ROSIE
(makes herself look like an ice queen with flaming eyes)
Oi
I’m sorry but this is our table and in case you haven’t realised, you’re not
wanted. So I suggest you take your ugly little selves and go elsewhere or
right? F.Y.I you over there, you might wanta consider threading. You’ve got
whisker growing out your nose. Just saying.
POPPY an
DAISY both go silence and wait to see what ROSIE does next. While the other
girls sitting on the table decide to leave after the embarrassment they have
just witnessed.
ELLA
(embarrassed by what ROSIE says talks to her friends as they leave the table
That
girl ROSIE is so cruel I can’t believe she just said that. If only I could...
Just before
ELLA could finish her sentence Principal Linken enters the hall
Scene 2
Principal Linken takes the stage as he starts
to call out the names of the girls and the boys who have been nominated for head
GIRL and head BOY.
PRINCIPAL LINKEN
Good
morning student as we all know today is a very exciting day for most if not all
of you as we are going to be having our yr 11 prom this evening. But firstly I
am going to call out the names of all of those who have been nominated as head
girl and head boy, so when I call your name come to the stage then I will call
on the winners.
ROSIE (stands on the
table)
Just so you
all know that crown is mine.
(Turns around to blow RYLAND a kiss before
sitting down)
DAISY
(secretly gives ROSSIE a sneer but when ROSSIE looks at her flaunts a warming
sisterly smile)
PRINIPALE LINKEN (puts his
glasses on)
RYLAND,
JAMES and ALEX, please come to the stage you have been nominated for head boy.
ELLA, ROSSIE
and DAISY, please come to the stage you have been nominated for head girl.
ROSIE rushes to the stage and places herself
right next to RYLAND giving the other two girls dirty looks. Daisy, stands next
to ELLA who she realises are actually trying to hide herself from ROSIE but
decide not to say anything.
PRINCIPAL LINKEN
An head boy
goes to...RYLAND.
The students cheer as RYLAND goes to give each
of the other guys handshakes as a sign of respect
ROSIE
(cheers on RYLAND while she tries to calm herself)
GO
RYLAND. Sorry girls this one is mine
PRINCIPALE
LINKEN
And
the head girl is..ROSSIE congratulations.
Both ELLA and ROSSIE leave the stage with no
sign of facial expressions, whilst ROSIE goes to get her crown and stand beside
RYLAND.
So students
here you have it these are you new head boy and head girl RYLAND BANKS and
ROSIE LEE JACKSON. You may now leave the hall.
ROSIE (flirting with RYLAND)
So, who you
taking to the dance tonight? Anyone special.
RYLAND
(trying to keep a straight face)
Umm,
I don’t know. How about you?
ROSIE
(keeps a relaxed face)
Umm
no one, why.
RYLAND
I was
wondering if you want to go to the dance with me. I mean if that’s ok with you.
ROSIE (blushing)
Yes you can
come and pick me up at 7
RYLAND
Seven
it is.
With nothing else to say to each other both
RYLAND and ROSSIE leave the gate with flushed faces giving each other side way
glimpses. DAISY gives her friend ROSIE a long stare and waits until she can no
longer see her before she too heads home
