Description
Part 1 assignment Island Draft uploadedTurn my three-act play into a fully-developed and insightful script for a film production. Very Shottas and Breakfast Club styled, in my opion, but way more seriousIn the end. Act Three, I want to do what happened to everyone in the end study in my character bios so you can reference that. Also, I’d like to do a scene on each with Michael, which starts from the courtroom, similar to how the movie Dope and how Ray Liotta in Goodfellas goes on a rant in the courthouse while the trial is going on, and then have him leaving the courthouse after his rant about gun violence the changes it brings the friends family loved ones, Then shift to a beach and then him explaining what happened to everyone and then turn back an email o that Michae cna saying I’m telling the story what do you think happened he became a writer and decided to share his story make it dramatic than a gunshot and the sound of waves crashing as the camera and as Michael walks the shore. Then, we see him go further and further with the sounds of crashing waves.Part 2I entirely need to develop my playwright, Moko Jumbie, as it is inspired by my love of the game The Quarry PS4, and I want to up the lore and horror use the quarry for ideas DO NOT PLAGARISE! the horror. I have laid out my ideas, so run with them. I developed a playwright and film treatment and script for this idea. I have attached the draft.

Dialogue for Characters
ACT I
AJANI
These roads look pathetic; I wonder if the government cant’s see this.
They don’t even care about what the people need
LONDON
Who gives a fuck about it? The only thing that those hungry
mongrels care about is their stomach.
MICHAEL

Enough of this stupid chitchat mehn? As if there is something you
can do about it. Let’s get in the mood for partying already.
(he stretches over to the driver’s seat to turn on the music and begins
dancing to the beats, Ajani and London join him in the moves.)
BRETT
(Shocked) Holy shit! What sought of crap is this! This can’t happen
now!
(The two look surprised)
LONDON and AJANI
(In unison) What is it?
BRET
(Showing them his phone) There is breaking news that the road we
are about to use is barricaded because the other part of the road is
flooded due to yesterday’s rain.
(The friends seem heartbroken)
MIA
(awakens from her nap) Are we there yet?
MICHAEL
We have a problem theres no way we can get to Christiansted Mia.
MIA
Seriously!
LONDON

I-1 Page 5
We have come a long way; what will we do? We can’t go back. We
already have the VIP tickets. I can’t miss the concert for some stupid
reason.
AJANI
(As she turns back the car) No problem, we will use the available
option. We’’ll take the old fair ground ruin up by the rainforest road
and well get to the other road and straight to deh Jam!
LONDON
But, it seems scary, using the alternative means that we have to cross
this forest that is believed to be haunted.
AJANI
(Laughing and mocking London) You! Who likes danger and trouble
afraid of some old wives tale? That’s the forest our grandparents use
to tell us stories about when we were kids to scare us. The HAG of
Deh Forest, and with all her witch powers and obia can call forth
mokojubies to take you away. Stop being a baby! Have you ever seen
the witches? Those are just stories used to scare children to sleep.
LONDON
Meen no fraid but I know I don’t play about them spooky shit!
MIA
(laughing at Ajani & London) Girl, Please, That’s just a made-up
story. Remember when we tried to find the old burned down
fairgrounds, and we never find it all that big bush the government
letting grow can’t find nun in dem fields. I’m pretty sure our folks
just said that in the hopes we would wander off someplace we won’t
supposed to be.

MICHAEL
Besides, Mia is here, and she brought a sat phone, and her service
pistol in case we run into any trouble, especially with all the
robberies, mugging, murders, and violence on the island will be fine
as long as we get to Christiansted.
(Before traveling a longer distance, they meet a little girl crying by
the roadside; Ajani insists that they should not stop, but London
forces Ajani to stop the car)
LONDON
You are the one who said this place is dangerous; how would we
leave this innocent child all alone? Maybe she has lost her parents.
(They get out of the car, and before they can reach the little girl, she
disappears and changes into an older adult. They run back to the car
and realize that it isn’t moving)
AJANI
(Screaming), I warned you, and you could listen to me, now, what
will we do?
(The old witch bangs the car everyone screams in fear).
BIJOU (THE WITCH)
I am a good person; I’ll only let you go if one of you remains with me.
And I need the one with the blond hair (pointing at London)
ACT 2
(Everyone is yelling at each other as the witch continuously bangs the
vehicle’s door. Ajani

suggests ways they could escape from this situation but none seems
to be working.)
BIJOU(THE WITCH)
I’ll let you go once you let me remain with the blond one.
London
(Shaking) No! No! No! I love a little trouble but this isn’t it.
AJANI
What do you want from us?
BIJOU(THE WITCH)
Vengeance. These are my woods. You must never have stepped on
my woods. For my
family, I will avenge against whoever sets foot on my woods!
MIA
(cries) Oh God Oh God. Here I was thinking I escaped from my
stressful job just to be in
this freaking situation. I should have slept instead.
Brett:
(scared) Mia it is not time for that. You are scaring us. I am feeling
out of breath. I can’t
handle this.
Michael

Hey guys come down, breathe! We gotta have a plan. Mia where is
your phone. I am
not sure your service pistol could work on a witch. She keeps
switching places.
AJANI
First, we must all come out of this. We are not leaving any of us here.
We stay together;
in unity, we concur. London be inside the car at all times since you
are the target.
Brett
(trembling) the witch will break the windows if she continues
banging the car. We have to
find a distraction.
AJANI
London should remain in the car while she tries to find the problem.
The rest of us will
get out and surround the car and prevent the witch from reaching
London. As long as the witch
cannot reach you, we are safe.
London
(pressing car peddles while shouting) I cannot find the problem!
BIJOU: (places palm on the car). I want you, you cannot run from me.

London: (Jumps in fear). We are trapped, the witch must be the cause
of the engine failure.
