Script

I've written a draft script for the first CCR I will create, here it is: 

[Set Design: Talk Show Set with lights, mugs, plants, cozy chairs]

Host:

"Welcome to 'Luna: Behind the Scenes'! Today, we're diving deep into the heart of 'Luna' with none other than our leading lady, Luna herself! I'm your host, [Name], and I'm thrilled to have Luna, the protagonist of our film, here with us today. Let's give a warm welcome to Luna!"

[Luna enters the set with a confident smile, waving to the audience]

Luna:

"Thanks for having me, [Name]! I'm thrilled to be here and share some insights about 'Luna' with all of you."

Host:

"Luna, before we dive into the nitty-gritty, can we talk about this fabulous mug with your face on it? I must say, it's quite the conversation starter!"

Luna:

[Laughs] "Oh, well that's one way to show the weird side of me. It's all part of the 'Luna' brand, you know? Gotta keep it fun and engaging!"

Host:

"Absolutely! Now, let's get down to business. So, how does 'Luna' use or challenge conventions and represent important social groups or issues?"

Luna:

"Well, you see, 'Luna' isn't your typical film. We wanted to tell a story that goes beyond the surface and dives deep into the complexities of human emotions and relationships. By portraying themes like domestic abuse and resilience, we hope to spark meaningful conversations and raise awareness about these important issues. Additionally, 'Luna' also shines a spotlight on minority voices, as it features a diverse cast of teenagers navigating their way through life. As a young Latina girl, Luna represents a demographic that is often underrepresented in mainstream media. We wanted to challenge this norm and provide a platform for voices that are often overlooked."

Host:

"Fascinating! 'Luna' definitely pushes the boundaries of traditional storytelling. Can you elaborate on how specific scenes or characters challenge conventions or offer new perspectives?"

Luna:

"Absolutely! Take the flashback sequences, for example. Instead of relying on linear storytelling, we use these flashbacks to provide insight into the protagonist's past traumas and how they shape her present actions. It's a non-linear approach that invites viewers to connect the dots and engage with the story on a deeper level. Luna is the heart of the story, and her character challenges many societal norms. As a young Latina girl growing up in a challenging environment, Luna faces a multitude of obstacles that are often overlooked in mainstream media. She struggles to balance her life at home, where she faces abuse from her boyfriend, with her life at work, where she puts on a brave face and maintains a facade of normalcy. Luna's journey challenges the stereotype of the perfect, happy-go-lucky teenager and sheds light on the harsh realities faced by many young women today. "

Host:

"Incredible insights, Luna! Now, let's shift gears and talk about audience engagement and distribution. How do you envision 'Luna' connecting with viewers, and where do you see it being screened?"

Luna:

"Oh, absolutely! 'Luna' is a film that resonates with audiences on a personal level. With its relatable characters and gripping storyline, we're confident that viewers will be drawn into the world of 'Luna' from the very first scene. As for distribution, we're aiming to start with a small release, including film festivals, streaming platforms, and even community screenings to reach diverse audiences."

Host:

"Sounds like 'Luna' is set to make a big splash! Before we wrap up, let's dive into the filmmaking process a bit more. What were some of the biggest challenges you faced while bringing 'Luna' to life, and how did you overcome them?"

Luna:

"Ah, the challenges! Filmmaking is never easy, but it's always rewarding. One of the biggest hurdles we encountered was capturing the emotional depth of the story while maintaining authenticity. It required a lot of trust and collaboration among the cast and crew, but in the end, it was all worth it."

Host:

"Incredible insights, Luna! And finally, do you have any words of wisdom for aspiring filmmakers out there who may be watching?"

Luna:

"Absolutely! To all the dreamers and storytellers out there, never underestimate the power of your voice. Your story matters, and there's no limit to what you can achieve if you believe in yourself and your vision. Keep pushing boundaries, taking risks, and never be afraid to shine your light."

Host:

"Beautifully said, Luna. And that concludes today's episode of 'Luna: Behind the Scenes'! Thank you to our amazing guest, Luna, for joining us, and thank you to our audience for tuning in. Until next time, keep dreaming big and making magic happen. This is [Name], signing off!"

[Luna waves goodbye as the audience applauds, and the camera fades to black]

[Luna shakes hands with host?]

I will try to create a script for the second CCR, the presentation, by the end of the week, I just don't know what I want to say or include specifically.
