Little Outline

   Week Two. Lets run it!

Keira and I spent the entire class going over character backgrounds and their contributions to the “heist”. We figured that if we did this, the script would fall into place easier. 
I have written some scripts before and when I write out everything about the characters, I can figure out what they would say in situations. 
Most of what we did revolves around what they would do in the planning part of the heist, since we don’t see them before or after that scene. We landed on six characters and figure out their motives and their part in the plan.
(FYI, we don’t have character names yet, so the names you see are the actors playing them) 

   

Jack- He is the leader of the plan. The Danny Ocean of the operation. He used to work at the diner, but after they screwed him over (probably over firing him), he decided to do the same to him. He brings everyone into the plan and explains to them what’s gonna happen: they are going to rob the diner. He’s the mastermind as he knows where everything is. He cant be involved in the heist, but he makes a great distraction because everyone knows him, and all eyes will be on him. He also fights with Keira as he thinks she has nothing to contribute. 

Adrian- Jack's best friend who is coming along for the money. Doesn’t care about Jack’s motive, only wants money. He brings his girlfriend, Keira, to the heist. He is portrayed as a stoner and doesn’t care about the consequences necessarily.

Keira- Goes with Adrian to the planning, doesn’t know what she’s going for. She sits when she’s there, not really contributing. She is very against the whole idea and she tried to shoot it down. Jack gets mad at her and they eventually get into a fight. He asks her what she wants from it or how it could be better, or to get out. She tells him that she’ll provide a distraction for the group.

Gomez- Works at the diner and used to work with Jack. She is there because she is the current “inside man.” She doesn’t care for the plan but wants to be a part because she doesn’t get paid enough. She is the logical one there and since she still works there, she’ll help Connor. 

Connor- He is the brawn of the operation. He’s the man going in to take the money. He doesn’t know anyone well, besides Jack. He doesn’t care since he doesn’t really have anything to lose and just wants the money. He brings Skyler for “backup”.

Skyler- Connors backup/ getaway driver. He’s there to help Connor get in and out. Doesn’t like Adrian so is always making jokes at him and being mean.
