For this scene, the
main character Gabriela is late for class. She rushes in and her teacher is
definitely unhappy with her. Gabriela acts as snarky as ever and takes her seat
without a care in the world. Her friend, Logan, wants to know the real reason
why she is late. They end up in a tiny argument and Gabriela storms out of the
room at the end of the scene.
I believe that the better part of this scene was the
characterization of Gabriela through dialogue. It’s easy to see Gabriela’s
personality by the way she speaks to her teacher, Mrs. Nelson, and Logan. Another
thing that makes this scene more appealing is just Gabriela’s strong character.
As the protagonist, she is tough and doesn’t back down. Another strength in the
scene was how we transitioned into Gabriela’s dream sequence. It changed up the
mood of the scene smoothly and was important to the development of the story.
The weak part of this scene would
be Logan’s characterization. I think that we didn’t show his personality well
enough in the dialogue and it made him seem like a flat 2-dimensional character
rather than a 3-dimensional one. I also think that we could have had more
description and action during the scene instead of mainly dialogue.
If we had more time to work on this scene and improve it,
I think we would have added in more description. Since a movie is mostly
visual, there needs to be a lot of description in the script but we didn’t add
any and made it mostly dialogue.
