Script

“Killer Taxi Driver”
EXT. SUBURBAN STREET- NIGHT
A Taxi drives up the street. KARISSE sticks her arm out to stop the cab. The taxi slams on the breaks and Sally then runs over to the taxi and jumps in back of car. The taxi DRIVER pulls away of furiously.

INT. BACK OF TAXI CAR- NIGHT
KARISSE leans forward to speak to the taxi driver.
KARISSE
     Can you please take me to 57 Woodhouse St in Bermondsey please.

The DRIVER says nothing. He stares ahead at the road as he drives very quickly. KARISSE opens her eye looking a bit shocked realizing that the driver is taking wrong directions. KARISSE then repeats herself again to the DRIVER.
                KARISSE
     Excuse me DRIVER you are going the wrong way, hello!
The DRIVER brakes at the traffic lights, reached his arm out to turn on the radio. After tuning the radio the DRIVER turned up the volume and began to drive as the traffic lights flashed green.

DRIVER
I wonder what’s on TV tonight. Left was it?

KARISSE ask the man if he is sure where he is going. Her eye balls move left and right slowly while biting her finger nails. KARISSE reaches for the taxi door to try and escape, but the door is locked.
                KARISSE
     I would love to get out now please DRIVER.
                DRIVER
Here we are 75 Woodhouse St, £40.
KARISSE stares in the DRIVERS face with her eyes wide open shocked by the cab fare.



What i have learnt about a script is you always have to write in corea new text. Also EXT and INT is needed to show whether the scene is going to be inside or outside. Also two or three characters are need no more than this. Dialogue should be in the centre and the text should be indented.
