A VERY short preview of a script I am writing


Creepy space music plays low as the scene opens

INT: The camera looks at a white room with large TV screens on three walls, the view is from the upper left and right hand corners of the room. A group of men and women in suits enter the room, ushered in by a scientist in a white laboratory coat and dorky glasses. Beside him is a general in full uniform with two privates standing at attention.

Ladies and gentlemen, please find your seats, we will start the presentation shortly. I am sure you are all dying to get this information but nothing will happen until everyone is seated.

(the people all sit in rotating chairs that will turn through out the scene so that they will face each screen as it is being used.)

Very good, now, welcome to Stefan Co.’s laboratory. I must remind you that there is no eating.

(pans over to a man stuffing his face, and then looking embarrassed, he puts the food on the floor.)

No smoking, chewing gum, taking photos, beaming images, brain scanning or video taping.

(camera reveals people doing all of the above, and stopping as he says each forbidden activity)

I am sure that you will notice the screens in front of you. The screens will be used for the presentation momentarily but first we will view a short informative movie. B0X35! Lights!

B0X35 activated. Lights going down.

Video Man

You were all selected because you are all from different places, races, and religions. After these short screenings you will have a big decision to make. As I am sure you are all aware that at the end of these short clips we will be taking a vote to decide the fate of these galaxies. Please do not feel badly about how the vote comes out. Please pick the society that you feel functions best. Now lets begin!

(camera shows the video that the audience is watching, once the video has ended the screen goes black and the words “Galaxy A” pop up)
