Scripting

As our film is going to be a teaser trailer, there isn't going to be much dialogue needed, compared to a short film.  Also, most of the dialogue we will be using will come from the auditions and where the person auditioning is singing so the dialogue in that sense will be a song. There is going to be little dialogue as you don't want to give too much of the film away and so teaser trailer's normally only use the most important dialogue to gain an understanding of what the film is about and especially in romantic comedies, the funniest lines in the film are often used in the teaser trailer to lure the audience in to go and see the rest of the film.

Since creating this, we have changed Miranda from the geeky girl to the popular girl as we have asked another girl, Millie to play the geeky girl as we feel that these two will interact really well together and can both play their respective parts excellently.

With regards to scripting, there isn't really going to be much speaking in our trailer as it is mostly singing. We have allowed the auditionees to sing whatever they want. 

Beth Holmes sings 'Changed for good' from Wicked

Miranda sings 'Zombie' by the Cranberries

Natalie sings 'Listen' by Beyonce

Millie sings 'You can't stop the beat' from Hairspray

The few lines in the trailer are:

One of the judges calling Natalie 'useless'

Miranda asking 'what's the lead and when do I get the script?'

The rest is mostly reactions from the judges as each audition occurs such as them being in shock and them giggling when Kieran tries to dance and completely goes wrong and falls into the camera.
