My grade just recently went to a camp arranged by the school called Peace Camp, and our Social Studies teacher gave each group a video project to answer the questions she gave us. My group asked me to make the script; tell me what you think about this first draft.
P.S. I took out all of the full names for their owners' safety.

[very fast shot, like last time, except the entire group is sitting in the chairs looking down, they suddenly look up]
[cut to Kirstie sitting Indian-style in front of the lockers]
Kirstie: [says the answer]
[cut to the whole group lying down on the grass forming a circle with their heads, they all take pieces of paper off-screen and holding them up together to form a rectangle, on the paper is the last question broken up]
Pieces of paper: WHAT’S NEXT?
Entire group: [take papers down] [say the answer together]
