Make a detailed, elaborate film script for our stylistics course subject in linguistics. In this script, indicate the following elements:

Scene headings or slugline: Written in all CAPS, with INT. and EXT.,  and includes the specific location and what time of day or night it is. 

Action: Make actions that are seen and heard. Use a present tense and active voice to convey a sense of urgency. Keep descriptions brief and real. Maximum of 3-5 lines per paragraph to avoid a long screenplay.

Characters: The first time you name someone in the action of your screenplay, you should write their name in all caps to show that you’re introducing a new character. This might be an actual name (e.g., SHIRLEY or MAJID) or a role description (e.g., PRISON GUARD or ANGRY DRIVER). We also use character names to show who is speaking in the dialogue. In this case, the name is usually written in all caps and indented roughly 2” (or 5cm) from the left margin on the page. The dialogue itself is then given on the next line, continuing until the character stops speaking.

Dialogue: dialogue in a script is what the characters will say on screen, but it also includes voiceovers or voices coming from off screen (see the bit on extensions below for how this works). Typically, you should indent each line of dialogue 1” (2.5 cm) from the left margin and end 1.5” (3.75cm) from the right margin. This will ensure it appears in roughly the center of the page.

Parentheticals and extensions: Parentheticals and extensions provide extra information about what is happening in a screenplay:

A parenthetical tells us how a character says something or what they are doing while they speak. These appear on the line between the character name and the dialogue itself. An extension is a note given in brackets after a character’s name stating how the audience will hear something. The most common are O.S. (offscreen) and V.O. (voiceover). These are usually given immediately after the character’s name when introducing dialogue. You should therefore add these to your screenplay as and when required.

Transitions and shots: These notes provide extra information, much like parentheticals and extensions. However, transition and shot notes are specific to shooting and editing. A typical “transition” note, for example, might say CUT TO: or FADE TO: to show how two scenes should be edited together in the final version. A “shot” note, meanwhile, would tell us what kind of shot to use when filming a scene (e.g., CLOSE UP or REVERSE ANGLE).

Based on these elements, make a script that is set in the modern-day setting (year 2000-ish) with the relationship falling apart for two people, stated in the perspective of a young Filipino man a la 5 Centimeters Per Second. You indicate a remarkable name for the characters as well as a moving, emotional dialogue. Indicate parentheticals and extensions to the script if necessary and appropriate to the context that you will give. Theme would center to unrequited love and failing romantic relationships. The current scene would be the Filipino man lamenting on his life as he reminisces the failing relationships of his partner while waiting for a bus heading to home, raining heavily, somewhere in a place on Manila.
