This week, Mr. Martin explained how to use Scenarist to write professional script. In the class, Mr. Martin asked students to write the first paragraph of the story to check whether the students would use Scenarist in right way. After checking with the Mr. Martin, my first paragraph of script has no major problems except for some minor errors. I can continue to complete the complete script based on the story.
In the later time, the script also has some changes under the changes of the story. The old file was lost in a computer virus attack, but this is the completed script:

WEEK 9 - 24/05/2021
After completing the script, the student is asked to start drawing the storyboard.
"A storyboard is a visual representation of a film sequence and breaks down the action into individual panels. It is a series of ordered drawings, with camera direction, dialogue, or other pertinent details. It sketches out how a video will unfold, shot by shot.

It's is similar to a trial-run for your finished film, video, or commercial, laid out in a comic book-like form."
It was really difficult when I first started drawing, because it not only have to consider the movement of the camera, but also the angle, perspective of character or background. Basically, it is to draw as a preview movie, every scene. It took a lot of time and energy to finally finish the consultation with Mr. Martin.
In the consultation, Mr. Martin provided a lot of useful suggestions and ideas, such as the sisters in the living room can make a princess pose and so on. Mr. Martin allowed me to object, but I think Mr. Martin’s comments have indeed improved my story, so I have no objection.
