Checklist for first draft

This is the checklist the writers compiled on saturday, to bear in mind as we write our first draft script:
· What the seed means for each charcter at the end.
· Slow down and mark the stages of understanding, language [moments where they understand]
· And the stages of trust.
· Add back in the level of fear of the building site.
· Chart the progress of Blue’s trust, and Blue’s imagination
· Make Blue’s fear of people and touch and sound clear
· Mark the links between sections and make them clear
· Strengthen Aka’s ‘political’ motivation. – ie what the ‘monster’ is.
· Make clear Blue’s assertion that there are no monsters in the site, but they are outside.
· Change the atmosphere, music and style for the grandmothers story
· In Brazil:
· Have a different atmosphere style and music
· Have a different rule of understanding?
· Make the fantasies global, structural, not merely reflection of children’s ‘desires, but an actually better world
· Show the origin of the seeds.
