I have always been interested in writing my own scripts, but I never had an understanding of how a script is supposed to be organized. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" class=\"wp-image-234\" style=\"width: 1000px;\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1.png 5396w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-1536x1536.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-2048x2048.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Explorations-Graphic-1-1600x1600.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>However, by researching and understanding how professionals write dialogue and detail, I learned that I could try to do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Progression<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As my explorations project furthered, I took multiple screenshots to show the progress that I was making.

Even though this was a very minor change, I felt better once I changed the names because when I said them aloud, it seemed to fit better in the story. In these screenshots, the organization that I researched is also presented. When writing screenplays, it is important that the frame and structure is consistent with what everybody is familiar with so that the text can be spoken like a film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final Product<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As seen by my production shots, my final product was a script that I decided to write, following important rules of screenwriting. These rules are described in the presentation, and are very important in making sure a screenplay is effective and enthralling. After all, the screenplay is the part of a film that forms the bond between the film and the viewer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<div data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-thr5ln3yd3y\" class=\"arve\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"arve-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.250000%\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<iframe allow=\"accelerometer &apos;none&apos;;autoplay &apos;none&apos;;bluetooth &apos;none&apos;;browsing-topics &apos;none&apos;;camera &apos;none&apos;;clipboard-read &apos;none&apos;;clipboard-write;display-capture &apos;none&apos;;encrypted-media &apos;none&apos;;gamepad &apos;none&apos;;geolocation &apos;none&apos;;gyroscope &apos;none&apos;;hid &apos;none&apos;;identity-credentials-get &apos;none&apos;;idle-detection &apos;none&apos;;keyboard-map &apos;none&apos;;local-fonts;magnetometer &apos;none&apos;;microphone &apos;none&apos;;midi &apos;none&apos;;otp-credentials &apos;none&apos;;payment &apos;none&apos;;picture-in-picture;publickey-credentials-create &apos;none&apos;;publickey-credentials-get &apos;none&apos;;screen-wake-lock &apos;none&apos;;serial &apos;none&apos;;summarizer &apos;none&apos;;sync-xhr;usb &apos;none&apos;;web-share;window-management &apos;none&apos;;xr-spatial-tracking &apos;none&apos;;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" credentialless data-arve=\"arve-youtube-thr5ln3yd3y\" data-lenis-prevent=\"\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/THr5lN3Yd3Y?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"0\" loading=\"lazy\" name=\"\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/THr5lN3Yd3Y?feature=oembed&#038;iv_load_policy=3&#038;modestbranding=1&#038;rel=0&#038;autohide=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autoplay=0\" title=\"\" width=\"0\"><\/iframe>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"http:\\\/\\\/schema.org\\\/\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/freestyleacademy.rocks\\\/~ArjunS\\\/explorations\\\/#arve-youtube-thr5ln3yd3y\",\"@type\":\"VideoObject\",\"embedURL\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\\\/embed\\\/THr5lN3Yd3Y?feature=oembed&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&autohide=1&playsinline=0&autoplay=0\"}<\/script>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Infographic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To aid my explorations product, I created an infographic detailing three different elements of screenwriting as well as films that exemplify the type of element. When creating my infographic, I wanted to make the colors pop so it would be interesting to the viewer, so I added three gradients on the bottom, which created a rainbow looking gradient. I created some other shapes as well to style it up a little bit. Here is a photo of my Adobe Illustrator workspace, which is what I used to create the infographic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-1024x577.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-238\" width=\"703\" height=\"396\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-1024x577.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-1536x866.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-2048x1155.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Infographic-Screenshot-1600x902.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 703px) 100vw, 703px\" \/><figcaption>This is my workspace in Adobe Illustrator, which I created my infographic in<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through my explorations unit, I was really excited to delve deeper and understand what makes a screenplay good. I truly valued being able to create my own screenplay as an assignment and compared to my previous works, I think my explorations infographic is better quality. This makes me feel like I have significantly improved over time and I think that it paid off during this unit. Overall, I believe that my digital artistry skills as well as my knowledge about the importance of screenwriting have significantly improved after the enjoyment I had creating a screenplay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Explorations Music<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For my explorations music, I was inspired by different EDM songs. It didn&#8217;t turn out exactly as I had hoped, but I believe that it is a good start to what I want to do. I am very inspired by music, and I think that in the future, I will keep improving on my music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-soundcloud wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-soundcloud wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Experimental Music By ArjunS (2020) by Freestyle Academy\" width=\"688\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?visual=true&#038;url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F830876713&#038;show_artwork=true&#038;maxheight=1000&#038;maxwidth=688\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-243\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-2048x1152.png 2048w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~ArjunS\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/reason-screenshot-2-1-1600x900.png 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>This is a screenshot of my Reason workspace.
