The Script to Screen unit has been very different to how I expected it to be. It has challenged me in many ways and I have found new interests in topics I thought I would dislike. I will outline each area of the production process and what I have learned from it. COMING UP WITH THE IDEA As soon as we were told the brief for the unit I was always thinking about what my story could be, You will be able to see from my earlier blogs from this unit I initially wrote down all the ideas that first came to mind when thinking about 'The Meeting'.
