My first revelation from this class is discussed in Hilliard's text on page 52, where he explains the different styles of scripting for electronic media. He talks about the one column and and two column methods of scripting for TV, but from my experience in this class I prefer the "mashup" method that we learned in class when we scripted the banned go daddy commercial from the Super Bowl. This method showed me first hand just how much goes into a script and how important it is to the completion of any electronic media project. Taking the time to break down this commercial and write out every scene change, camera angle, and bit of dialog, to name a few aspects, really showed me that a lot more goes into script writing than I could have ever known before taking this course.
