Planning
As I have chosen to do a factual drama radio broadcast, I had to do alot of research into the 9/11 attacks in particular the hijacked United 93 flight. In fact in my script I have some of the real words said by one of the air stewardesses (CeeCee Lyles) as she left her final voicemail to her husband. I also had do a lot of research into CeeCee Lyles (the air stewardess) and find out about her family so the script sticks to the truth and is realistic.
I have also made up conversations in the script that maybe the air stewardess would have had with the other air cabin such as talking about their children, which also makes the incident seem ever more heart braking as we know that everybody on board dies, and that the people on board that plane such as the air stewardess won't ever see her children again.
I didn't realise the amount of information that had to go into a script such as sound effects and information regarding how people say things and act.
Writing my script took a considerable amount of time and planning but I eventually got there.
Here is a draft script for my radio drama:
Here is the final script of my radio drama broadcast: (as you can see I have done many annotations, as I gathered more ideas and how to make the different sound effects)
As my radio drama was still to short, I needed to ensure it was the required length of 5 minutes so therefore I put some emotional dramatic music at the end, and also put a speech into the ending of the radio drama that president Bush made to remember the horrific events of 9/11.
Here are some more of my planning documents.
Here is the sound list which really helped me for my organisation. This was useful as it meant I knew where all the sounds were, so when I went back and had to make some edits to my radio drama I knew what the different sound files were called
Here is my recording schedule:
Script feedback:
Talitha Engldow who was one of the voice actors said the script looked really professional however it was quite difficult to understand and there was a lack of pronunciation marks. This is something I am going to improve for future projects.
