Script for Directory's Commentary

     So, after working on the director's commentary script I think I have inputted all the information I need to successfully answer the questions and have made a script that will help guide me through the process which I will be putting on here. 

You gotta know what is first

    So, obviously, since I have never done anything like this before I had no real idea of what a director's commentary even was. I knew that I had to comment and that I had to use clips from my opening but that's about it. So, I used the resources I had (Youtube) to find an example on me to base it on. When doing this search the first result was for the Knife's Out director's commentary but that one had no visual stimulus to go with it just the director talking which I thought was quite boring so I went to the 2nd result which was from a director that specializes in the exact genre I was doing: Jordan Peele. In this one, he used a lot of clips from his movie get out and analyzed them as he showed them on screen. I like this approach but I had to condense it for the sake of time picking out the important parts to talk about not all the parts.

Script done

    After working on it for about 1-2 hours I finished the script for the directory's commentary I will be doing. It totals out to be about 5 pages and 1.36k words. I do not know if I will be able to say all that in the time frame and if I am not I can definitely cut out some parts of it to make it shorter and more concise.

Conclusion

    I will now start to work on the presentation that I will be doing for the 2nd part of the CCR to answer the last 2 questions. I plan on recording the audio for both of these things through voice-over on the weekend and getting them on the blog in time. I am excited to almost be done and will see you in the next update until then stay tuned!
