When writing
the script for my preliminary task, I took pains to ensure a sense of
continuity was evident throughout:
Brad
Kelsey (Police officer who is not on duty, as he is on leave after shooting a
runway criminal) is in counselling trying to get over the ‘Trauma’. In the shot
the is a couch facing towards the camera, and an armchair side on from the
camera. There is a small wooden coffee table in the centre, with a jug of
water, 1 glass and a mug of tea, which belongs to the councillor.

“Yes.”
(Councillor)
“‘Yes’ you’ll feel safe or ‘yes’
you need a partner?”
(Brad Kelsey)
(BRAD takes a long sip
from the glass)
“‘Yes’ I want a partner.”
(Councillor)
“So you wont feel safe on the
job?”
(Brad Kelsey)
“I don’t know yet, there’s so
much going on at the moment.”

“Like what?”
(Brad Kelsey)
“Just like recovery, the baby

(Councillor)
“Is Sarah your wife?”
(Brad Kelsey)
“Yes”
(Councillor)
“And have you and Sarah talked
about the incident much?”
(Brad Kelsey)
“We haven’t spoken much
about it.”
(Councillor)
“Why is that? Are you scared
about discussing it with her?”
(Brad Kelsey)
“No, we just have had so much
happening”
(Councillor)
“Okay Mr.Kelsey, we’ll just take
a break there and meet again in 5 minutes.”
