Report On the Generic Conventions of Two Scripts




The Dumping Ground
At the start of the script it shows a list of all of the characters who are going to be in the script and who the actors/actress who acts out their characters. There is allot of dialogue going on in this script and it states the time, date and the location of where each part is happening. Also, it shows what each character is saying and what they are doing. There are also sound effects in this script, e.g. ‘<TAXI HORN>’ that comes from the taxi. There are 16 characters that are included in this script. At the end of the script, The Dumping Ground uses ‘END OF EPISODE’ to illustrate that this is the end of the script and episode of the TV Drama.


Eastenders
Eastenders states what number the episode is at the front page of the script. There is approximately about 15 characters that are included in this script and this also states the time, date and the location of each part happening. The Eastenders script also the ‘CUT TO’ function to indicate the scenes that were going to change and the location to be somewhere else.
