SCRIPT FOR FILM OPENING

This is the final script I will be using for filming on the 3rd and 4th of January. In comparison to other film openings I have looked at for research, there is little dialogue, the majority being the voice over at the beginning which will be added during post production. 

SCRIPT
Stevie - Steven. C
Stevie's Mother - Patricia. T

(Stevie, looking distressed, dusty and messy with duct tape on his mouth is tied to a chair in a basement)

Voice in Stevie's head: 

'Day 2...trapped down here...tied to this chair...'

'I have a feeling my team are dead, which means its just me left, god' 

'Ah, it smells down here... is that mould?' 

'I have been frantically trying to untie my hands for hours, not yet been successful'  

'I can't hear any signs of life...I think its only a matter of time before...' 

Stevie's Mother: "Steeeveeennn, dinner's ready...Come out of the basement... You are spending too much time playing down there. Come on, sweetie." 

(Stevie pulls his hands free, rips duct tape of his mouth)

Stevie: "MUUUUM. You ruin everything!!! -sighs- " 

(Stevie gets off chair, begins to walk up the stairs) 

Stevie's Mother: (faintly) "Don't be like that, honey." 

(Steven walks out of basement and into his dining room where his mother gives him his dinner, ruffles his hair and brushes the dirt off his shirt) 

(Steven then sighs and stares at his dinner then looks up at the camera with the same distressed face)
