For my film class we had to take a script from a portion of a movie and create our own coverage for the scene. The one I chose is from American Beauty, and while I haven't actually seen the movie, I figured that was fine seeing how this way I wouldn't want to create something close to the original. If you want, you can find the original scene here. Well, most of it anyway.

EDIT: Yes, I changed the script a little to fit the fact that I only had two other people to help.

How unusual!

How so?

I've never seen this practice, at least not for our film classes or anything around here. It's very interesting.

If I have a technical complaint, you have a transition (I believe when the title appears on screen) where the music disappears completely suddenly, where a fade probably would be less jarring.

Pretty good, I'd just avoid so many fast cuts if you don't have professional equipment.
