BIG MEDIA COMPANY 0:07
Happy Sunday everyone. And this is screenplay Sunday where we take a few random drunks. And we write a random script today. Joined by grace Paris, Tommy Thomas jacket. Jessica Lucas, Georgie boy and Mr. 97. Please welcome them.

Tommy 0:23
Thanks for having us.

Unknown Speaker 0:26
Thank you.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 0:27
That guy.

Unknown Speaker 0:29
Good, right. Pretty good.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 0:31
A little fumbled over the Thomas. JACK a bit.

Unknown Speaker 0:33
Yeah. Well, did you pay? Thomas?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 0:35
Did you have one I wanted, I was trying to be formal trying to be funny, and then just fact it. But so the idea is that we get one person within the team to write a script. And today, that's Jess Lucas, just how how's the experience been?

Unknown Speaker 0:55
It was harder than I thought. This is a bit much and I don't think I've done a great job at my document. But you know what? The story's okay. It doesn't have a title really.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 1:08
And so JB, we mentioned Yeah, can you explain what we committed to last week in regards to format? Just in general last week.

GB 1:18
Last week, we decided that maybe we could have at random sound effect. And I would play it out at some point during the script, I'd have to feel it out. When's the right time to play this out? So the sound effect that has been shown to me play it

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 1:36
surprise, surprise, surprise it can you get maybe tell us what the sound is? Should we know what the sound effect is? Do you think at least?

GB 1:44
Um, no.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 1:45
Okay, you went from

GB 1:51
the other thing that we shot that we decided was that before we'd read the script, we would guess what the premise was based on the title and at the time looking at the front page, it says title written by author's name

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 2:09
where's the script? In slack by the way Oh, can you chuck it in slack for me?

GB 2:13
Yes in slack okay.

Unknown Speaker 2:16
But so is a little bit there on the second page just a little bit have a centimetre and you can see what it's called.

Tommy 2:23
Oh, so you do have a

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 2:24
you just haven't it just didn't format Oh, wow. Yeah, that's some serious formatting issues you've put it in the the action section and once again, this is printed with the demonstration version of failing which is already a lot of points if there was was a point system scoring Yeah. And so the idea last time we had Tony, Tony lodge was in Grace's seat and in Mr. Nye seven seat there was Ryan Shelton. Now what are we doing? What are we doing in regards to who's reading wat and ease this Jess and extension on last week's story?

Unknown Speaker 3:09
Um, it's using the same characters of introducing you just moving

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 3:13
further and further away from

Unknown Speaker 3:18
Yeah.

Unknown Speaker 3:21
The same characters as last week, they introduced a new one. And it doesn't really flow from last week. It's just a different scenario. Okay, that's,

GB 3:29
that's okay. Good tonight. We'll go on like then next week. It's, it's fun to try and link up these two maybe Sure. Or maybe

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 3:38
arise from

GB 3:39
maybe they say it doesn't really make sense for eight weeks.

Tommy 3:44
Yeah, great.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 3:45
Okay. So from here, just do you want to set up who's playing what character please? Yeah, sure. Everyone get an index card and write it down. Which character? Yeah.

Unknown Speaker 3:55
Okay, Gryphon Mason. You are Dale.

GB 3:59

Unknown Speaker 13:05
What is it as

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 13:08
a scam the wrong ticket?

Unknown Speaker 13:11
What do you mean?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 13:13
I confuse the ticket Dale gave me with the one George gave me. And it turns out I was the correct donor.

GB 13:27
I didn't think I bought a lottery ticket.

Tommy 13:30
So are you saying this is Dale's winnings?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 13:34

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 13:50
solid I mean Jagga just for someone who loves to have no fails. And you know be be right and you know proper with everything. How was that experience for you? Oh my god.

Unknown Speaker 14:03
It was funny hearing you guys talk through that.

Unknown Speaker 14:07
I'm not proud of what I've written. I'm not gonna lie.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 14:10
It's a great first go go. You could get rid of get rid of the colon after each of the names that sort of like a the big one from a format perspective. But outside of that, I think it's a great compelling script. Fantastic character development. And any other ways back?

Unknown Speaker 14:31
I loved it. I liked it. I liked it. I wasn't happy with moments personally.

GB 14:40
You regret just a couple of them. What do they call it? Like the like when I said and what would you want cheesy? I thought cheesy was a type of oshi but what Simon was actually saying was what would you want cheesy? It was calling someone cheesy, right?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 14:58
Oh no, I thought those were good. Vegemite scroll.

Unknown Speaker 15:01
Yeah, give me

Unknown Speaker 15:03
a name isn't it? What do you want? cheesy?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 15:05
Yeah, no do what do you want like cheesy name was Jessica

Unknown Speaker 15:09
had the cheesy months ago when I hand Yeah,

GB 15:11
I was calling Santa cheesy.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 15:14
Was he calling her cheesy? chess?

Unknown Speaker 15:17
Not cheesy in the sense of her being cheesy, but

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 15:20
it's a nickname cheesy because she had the cheese. Okay, great.

GB 15:23
Yeah. Okay, good. So that's okay.

Tommy 15:25
I liked it. I like the amount of dialogue in it. Mm hmm. Okay. Yeah, it was one scene last week. Josh, you sort of took us on a adventure down the street. This sort of just stayed at one spot and Nicola absolutely flooded with dialogue. It's like the phone

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 15:39
booth. You know that film with a

Tommy 15:43
man ledge.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 15:44
Grace. How did you feel with doing the the big print? It's a lot of pressure, isn't it?

Unknown Speaker 15:49
It is because if you stuff it up, then everyone notices and I feel like I have a problem saying the word news agent. Oh, really? Every time to that word. I just freaked out. So pianos fun.

Unknown Speaker 16:03
I wanted you to have a nice voice. Yes.

GB 16:08
There's definite links to last week's scripts with this. Yes. You know, Dale can afford his styles. accesskey.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 16:17
Was Wendy different character,

Unknown Speaker 16:20
your accent?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 16:23
Did I have a weird character or? Anyone else? Yeah. Was it was it coding was she called Wendy? Yeah, great. Okay, perfect. So good. Well, I think that was great.

Unknown Speaker 16:34
So talk about Mason's going from like Scottish to Irish to British.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 16:41
Australia. Yeah, there was like consistency, though. That's for sure. It's very hard to keep an accent going the whole time. Yeah. It'd be good to get a little bit of vocal training. Right. If we could work out like if we could find someone to do an hour a week with you to work develop an accent? That would be a lot of fun. Typically. Yeah, I'll do that. Yeah. I would love like an hour a week. You You have training? Yeah. And then from Episode 1000, all episodes of The Daily talk show you join an American?

Tommy 17:13
I'll do that. Yeah. Any? Do you think there's any people who aren't actors that are getting voice training for a different accent? I just want to be the person that can nail an American accent? Yeah, surely. I am. I know an accent that used to live used to live near him. He said to me when he flew, flew into America, as soon as he got on the plane, who turned his accent from Australian to American. And just stay in, stay in it the whole entire time.

Unknown Speaker 17:42
I could do that.

Tommy 17:44
That is something novel about having an Australian accent in not when you're about to walk into six months of filming a TV show. Ah, okay. So it was doing efficient like that. He's not just a con artist. I should ask going over there. I mean,

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 17:58
there wouldn't be something fun about doing an accent. And saying if someone picked up that it was fake. So actually just doing that, like having picked like going to the cafe? Yeah. So because I've never been to say my local cafe. I just do an accent every time I go in there and just see if they can ask about my story. The one thing about

Tommy 18:19
action is I'm trying to try to work out, you know, like, I do a California guy, which I then take on this surfer persona. But what what I'm trying to work out is all that before, no. So you look at an actor who isn't American. How do you Be yourself? And what is your self accent? Like? Where do you reside in America? Because the accent changes? Well, I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah. Like, you could easily make a run secret still. Or someone? I think Li is probably the most known like California accent whereas you get to America, New York, and it's much harder. But then. Yeah, so where does Josh Jensen's normal voice and how he speaks where do you fit in America? That's what we're gonna work out

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 19:09
I think would probably be sort of maybe Montana or something? To be honest, like it'd be a little bit sort of getting close to Canada and where Montana like I just imagined like a bit higher up. Enough you guys feel that? Hey, hey. I mean, I want to hear t J's,

Tommy 19:32
sir for just your Oh, dude. It's like, you know, we've just been treading down the bar. And we're going over to the Kentucky Fried Chicken pretty soon. Okay. You know what I mean? But like that's me, Indiana trying to be surfer dude like from California. Like but then that's not how Americans speak but I'm trying to work out

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 19:53
You sound a me from Conan to me. You know, we kind of in California on a

Tommy 19:57
flex keishon

Unknown Speaker 20:00
Yeah.

Tommy 20:02
Without giving away money. Yeah. Get all this money to blow on a holiday home.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 20:09
It's very good. That's great. He's good. Oh, okay the ryan say Chris thing for a bit of a trip maybe we can eventually have a Ryan say Chris pot. You know the scrape? Yeah.

GB 20:21
They say one line.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 20:22
Yes. That's true.

Tommy 20:25
Guys also one other thing that would be cool whether, you know, I might not be here every episode but

Unknown Speaker 20:30
what about like

Tommy 20:35
I take a week off to work on my accent come back strong. A cinema fact. A cinema fact. Something around screenplay. Big Picture we spoke just before the show started about Ken Burns and I'm sure that's going over Grace's head and Jesse's head. They are either thinking like the Simpsons, Ken Burns from the Simpsons. I think it was Mr. Burns that his name is Ken Burns was my vice principal and

Unknown Speaker 21:02
prime Montgomery burns.

Tommy 21:04
Ken Burns. I mean, I didn't know I just thought it was an effect in Final Cut. I just thought it was called Ken Burns. It was it was in Final Cut. Was Ken Burns effect

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 21:17
in final when they when they turned Final Cut into iMovie. Okay, yeah, they were solid over who is

Tommy 21:23
Ken Burns? And what do you know of him Josh.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 21:25
He's a documentary filmmaker, he looks if you look at a photo of him, he looks like he's wearing a wig. Like he's got like a very, like, dark, dark hair. So thing and he's an older guy. And so he does really long documentaries. But he's, um, his style is in the archival footage and photography space. And so one of the effects is the panning over a photograph. And so iMovie in like the early 2000s had a Ken Ken Burns effect where you would set the start point and the end point and it would do a nice little zoom and pan. plotter any other details on him, TJ?

Tommy 22:08
I didn't know I like that. I mean, that's, that's great. And then the guy's got his own effect like that. Superior,

GB 22:15
you don't see make cash have that effect. Like would they have to buy?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 22:18
Surely there's some naming rights things which Yeah, I think so. Yeah.

GB 22:23
Anyway, it can burn highly. Well,

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 22:26
it's screenplay Sunday. If you've got any feedback. Hi, at screenplay sunday.com. We're developing this format every single week. I think it's going well. TJ any improvements? Like I know you're saying that you love it. Okay, I don't want to count anything. I

Tommy 22:40
love it. I think I think probably we the the person who brings the script. Yeah, George, I think you do next week? Because we've got Yeah, there's something quite special on I think that we've locked in. And I feel like you'd be great at that. But we bring the nine so it's like flawless in who's got the characters. You know, we learn from our mistakes, Jess, no need to rub?

Unknown Speaker 23:05
Because I did it as everyone's names first. And then I went back in and renamed

Unknown Speaker 23:09
it Yeah.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 23:13
I would have just actually recommended to make it easier for you, you could have just done a bit of a command f find or replace type of thing rather than doing it individually.

Unknown Speaker 23:23
But that would have saved so much time.

Tommy 23:24
Yeah, but yeah, list of whose characters or what? And

Unknown Speaker 23:29
yeah, since I do screenplays usually have a character list.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 23:32
They do the beginning of the Actually no, sorry, they don't have a character list. But in your um, in like Final Draft or whatever you're using, there's probably GB I'd say there's like a list that you could probably go in and do it at like a global level.

Tommy 23:45
Or it's taking the person six months to land. The job is Kevin and Kevin.

Unknown Speaker 23:53
are in the rating?

Unknown Speaker 23:55
Yeah.

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 23:57
Thanks, everyone. screenplay Sunday. You can watch this as well, or you can listen on your favourite podcast app. Otherwise, we'll see you next week. Have a good one. Should I have some sort of fun ending? Like rather than saying Have a good one just like, keep on writing? Yeah,

Unknown Speaker 24:12
yeah, that's just what happened. Oh, there's something in

GB 24:18
and what do you say fade out?

BIG MEDIA COMPANY 24:20
Oh, yeah. Fade Out. It would be good to be able to if I could do some form of fade out. We can do that next time. All right, fade out. It's a bit aggressive to be honest. That was insane. just insane. Insane. Insane. Oh, no, no, I'm gonna say screenplay Sunday. That's a wrap.
