Hi team, we’ve had a couple of days off but haven’t deserted you all just yet. We need to tie up a few loose ends before The Lost Book finishes completely. So how better to start than to thank everyone who contributed to the writing of the final episode? The tempo of Alexis‘s music was a tad slower than the previous couple of frenetic episodes but you may still not have had time to catch all these names.

Thanks team, we couldn’t have done it without you! And don’t go away…

You’ve made the last decision that needs to go into the episode 5 script: Professor Remi appears to be a woman much younger than her seventy-eight years (53% of the vote).

Sketches for episode 5 storyboards

We’re recording this afternoon, so here’s the finished script! The storyboards aren’t yet finished – this is a sneak preview of the first three shots. The rest will follow during the week, and I’ll also post the traditional “plotting the episode” blog to tell you the story of how episode 5 developed.

Think of us (Helen and Adam from Binary Fable, Stephen the sound designer, Cora and Sean) this afternoon, shut up in the recording studio while you enjoy the sun.

(Oh, and I don’t think I’ve mentioned script formatting for a while. There’s a standard format used for screenplays, where each scene is introduced by a “slugline” that describes the location and time of day. To find out more, the BBC Writers Room has an information page with PDF examples of a range of script formats. There isn’t yet a standard for “web series” (!) so we’re using the format we would use for a short film.)
