Production Schedule
This is my production schedule guide so far. It is vague for now, but will be
added to as I go along in order to create an accurate schedule.
Businessman:
So, it’s a deal?
Wendy:
Yes, you have yourself a deal.
Businessman:
How soon?
Wendy:
She’s extremely busy…. We can fit it in by the end of the
month.
Business man:
Earlier please…. End of next week?
Wendy:
There is a 20% additional fee for a quick turn around?
Businessman:
Yes, that would work. Pleasure doing business with you….
Businessman:
We have success. We’ve got Cara the Balance Girl for our
natural cleanser. Let’s just watch the
sales of Nature Cleanse go through the roof!
(sound of applause from colleagues)
SCENE 2
INT: Cara’s bedroom.
Cara’s filming spot is in the corner of her bedroom, she has
mindfulness posters behind her- and it has been her set up for
years.
Cara:
Another one done….
FADE
Checks phone: Picture message from Wendy:
Wendy:
Cara, it’s Wendy. Another marketing plug needed for
a balance board this time. I’m having it sent over
by special currier as I speak… can you do this one
today too? I’ve promised their marketing manager…...
Please don’t break a bone doing this one… you’re in
high demand……..”
Cara:
Yes, that one’s just done.. just uploading it now…..
Wendy:
These young girls L O V E you! You’re fast
becoming every company’s marketing dream!
We’ll stay with products which balance with your
‘wellness’ image though… it’s a jungle out there and
they’ll drop you as fast as they hire you if we get
it wrong… keep your image squeaky clean Cara….
Promise me that!
Cara:
That’s not a difficult thing to promise Wendy… I’m having an
early night tonight… even said no to going to a
party… I’m working so hard, I don’t have the energy.
All I’ve got planned tonight is a bath, some candles
and an oven pizza!
Wendy:
Oh… I’m sending a currier with a new cleanser for you… perhaps
give that one a plug tonight if you’re having a
relaxing night?
FADE
Mum:
Busy day darling?
Cara:
Yes! I can’t get the recordings done fast enough…
Mum:
Your face is everywhere these days… I’m so proud of you. .. Do
you remember that I’m away this evening? I’m off to
London to see that Waitress musical and then staying
in that lovely hotel we went to last week. It’s been
a busy week at work and so I’m looking forward to my
Friday evening of freedom!
Cara:
You’ll love Waitress mum…
Mum:
I already know most of the songs from you playing them day and
night!
Cara:
I’m looking forward to my quiet night in… I don’t have the
energy to go out..
Mum:
You talk about balance all the time on your YouTube channel…
but I don’t see you taking your own advice, Cara.
You need to slow down before you burn out! See you
tomorrow darling!
Flo:
Hi Miss Balance? How’s life?
INT: Cara is in her dining room whilst talking to Flo,
and she is writing her ‘to do’ list whilst
talking.
Cara:
Exhausting!
Flo:
That’s so dull! I’m just here to remind you that you are still
young and that it’s not too late to say yes to the
party tonight.
Cara:
I just can’t Flo.. and I don’t want to either… I really am too
exhausted to party
Flo:
Well thank goodness that there are posters of you everywhere I
look because otherwise I would forget what you look
like.
Cara:
Don’t be like that… I’m just getting used to how busy I am…
Flo:
That agent of yours cracking the whip again? I bet she’s
laughing all the way to the bank with her 12%
commission.
Cara:
I know you’re disappointed Flo, and I’m sorry. I’m sorry I
won’t be able to meet Tom…you’ve told me often
enough how gorgeous he is….
Flo:
I know what you’re doing…. You’re trying to make me forget how
cross I am with you….. I never manage it for long do
I? We’ve known each other far too many years.
Cara:
You’re like the sister I never had.
Flo:
We could be the ‘twinnies’!
Cara:
I couldn’t think of anything nicer… now let me get on
with my evening and you enjoy yours…. Remember
I’ll want to hear all the gossip tomorrow!
BLACKOUT
(next morning)
TEXTS: Flo:
I’ll never forgive you
Cara:
What have I done?
Flo:
I hate you!
Cara:
????????
TEXT: Sarah:
You were WILD last night Balance Girl!
Cara:
I don’t know what you mean?
TEXT: Wendy:
What have you done? No damage limitation will resolve
this! How COULD you have been so stupid?
Mobile;
INT: Wendy’s office
Wendy:
Are you pleased with yourself?
INT: Cara’s bedroom
Cara:
I really don’t know what’s going on Wendy. I promise you… I
was here last night. Those pictures at that party…
it wasn’t me! I know it looks like me but I wasn’t
there… I promise!
Wendy:
You really can’t expect me to believe that Cara. There’s no
point uploading any more of those recordings… no-one
wants you. Everybody’s changed their minds about
you… you silly girl… what did I say to you about
keeping a squeaky image?
Cara:
Wendy, wait please! It wasn’t me!
Wendy:
I’m going to need to distance myself from you Cara. My
reputation is in tatters too because of you. Keep a
low profile… but your golden girl days are over…..
and so are we!
Cara:
Please Wendy… we’ve worked together for quite a while. You
know I wouldn’t do this!
Wendy:
I though I knew you Cara.. but it appears that I don’t.
Twin:
Finally …a big shout out to all you twinnies out there who
have supported me and forgiven me for my antics last
week. There really is no excuse. I am truly sorry
and I have been humbled by your generosity and
love. Even the Balance Girl isn’t perfect it
seems…. But I will try. I will live my life,
day by day with balance and wellness and look
forward to catching up with you lovely people
tomorrow. Bye from me, Cara the Balance Girl!
