Dialogue

Now that I have an outline for the plot, I have to start thinking about writing dialogue and a script. There are two ways I can go about this;

• Script all pieces of dialogue. This is the most conventional method as used by most film writers as then all dialogue is considered and rehearsed so there is little chance of breaking character.
• Outline the rough meaning to the scenes and what I want to happen in terms of dialogue and let them improvise. This is more unconventional but films like "The Blair Witch Project" are examples of the format working within the horror genre as it provokes more genuine reaction. This would also put less stress on me as I have little experience at scriptwriting.

I will try to write a script as I believe that it'll be much better for auditioning and for the story as a whole, but if I am not pleased with my attempts to write, I shall use the outline of the story and rely on the actor's improvisational skills.
