TATE walks out of a club in a short pink dress white heels and had a white hand bag ... she is on the phone to her boyfriend.
TATE (talking into the phone)

TATE holds out her hand as a black taxi pulls up.
DRIVER: (deep voice smiling)

TATE:

TATE jumps into the taxi and the DRIVER starts to drive off
TATE (still talking on the phone)

TATE gets off the phone as the DRIVER stairs at her through the wind mirror...
DRIVER

TATE looks awkwardly as she feels like the driver is asking too many questions
TATE (awkwardly)

The DRIVER ignores her instructions and takes a left and speeds down an ally TATE panics and trys to open the door ... the DRIVER puts the child locks on

TATE (crying and shouting)

ReplyDeleteGreat script. You have used the correct formatting. You have used the right indents to show the difference between the action and the dialogue. All character names have been written in capitals and there are directions for the characters in brackets.
To make this even better just make sure the alignment of the dialogue is correct - some of it is not in line and it could get confused with the action.
