Zac and I are going to be recreating the dinner scene from the film Step Brothers starring Will Ferrell and John C. Reily.
Storyboards:
The entire scene cosists of mid shots and two shots. The opening shot is a two shot of Dale (Ryan) and Robert (Ed), Dale is putting ketchup on his food, followed by Robert telling him it's enough. Linking back to futher mid shots (MS) during the lengthy disscusion over "fancy sauce" the shots last approximatley 3-4 seconds in order for the viewer to absorb the most information from what is being depicted on screen. During this scene i will make use of jump cuts (JC) to insure that my remake is as closely inkeeping with the conventions of the original as possible

Script:
NOTE:

· Mid shots, over shoulder shots, two shots.
Robert:
Dale that’s enough ketchup, come on dale.
Dale:
I like it.
Nancy:
Dale I don’t know if you… You might want to try this, I make a sauce, we call it fancy sauce
Brendan: mm, for me.
Nancy:
That, um, Brendan really likes with his chicken nuggets…
Brendan:
It’s my fancy sauce.
Nancy:
Well when Brendan finishes, um, I’ll give you some of this, it’s- it’s ketchup and mayonnaise mixed together
Brendan:
mm, it’s so good.
Dale:
I want some fancy sauce.
Nancy:
Yeah.
Brendan:
Not, no, I’m using it.
Robert:
Looks good.
Dale:
Can I have fancy sauce?
Nancy:
Of course, heh, of course, um…
Brendan:
I’m using it right now
Nancy:
Okay, so let’s just-
Robert:
You wanna try it?
Dale:
Yeah
Nancy:
Let’s just let him try some
Dale:
Yeah I really would like some
Brendan:
Just one last spoonful
Nancy:
I think- I think you’ve got enough there Brendan. So here you go
Robert:
(sigh of relief)
Dale:
Thanks
Nancy:
It’s ketchup and mayonnaise
Dale:
Urgh, uh-uh, I don’t like it. It smells weird.
Robert:
I’ll try some
Nancy:
Okay, you want some?
Robert:
Sure, absolutely
Nancy:
Okay
Robert:
You don’t mind, do you Brendon?
Nancy:
Brendan, Brendan
Brendan:
I’m not comfortable
Robert:
No it’s okay, it’s probably not good after fish anyway
Dale:
But my dad’s king of the castle so if he wants fancy sauce he should-
Robert:
No it’s oaky
Brendan:
If he wants fancy sauce he should make his own batch
Nancy:
So you know what? Today, when you were driving around Dale was telling me that he’s really into kung-fu, and I was telling him that you’re really into kung-fu as well
Brendan:
I have a green belt. Read it and weep.
Dale:
I don’t believe in belts. There should be no ranking system for toughness, but one time I wrestled a giraffe to the ground with my bare hands.
Robert:
That’s not true Dale, don’t be ridiculous
Nancy:
So Dale, what have you been up to recently?
Dale:
I manage a baseball team
Nancy:
Oh, little league?
Dale:
Fantasy league.
Dale:
Why don’t you take a picture it’ll last longer
Robert:
Why don’t you stop being so confrontational, Dale
Dale:
I’m not the one staring at me!
Robert:
So Brendan, how about you? I know you used to work at Petsmart
Brendan:
That’s right Mr Doback
Robert:
Call me Robert
Brendan:
That’s right Robin
Robert: It’s Robert
Nancy:
Brendan’s a really talented person, a very gifted singer
Brendan:
I’m really, really good.
Dale:
How good
Brendan:
I’ve been called ‘The Songbird’ of my generation, by the people who have heard me, that good.
Nancy:
The only trick is, Brendan’s very particular about who he sings in front of, like I’m his mom for example and I’ve only heard him sing twice
Dale:
It’s funny that you say that, ‘cause, I can sing too. I’ll sing right now.
IF YOU WANNA GET DOWN ON THESE HAIRY BALLS, WHY DON’T YOU JUMP RIGHT IN?
Robert:
HEY!
Dale:
IT’S A CROTCH PARTY RIGHT UP IN HERE, WHY DON’T YOU LICK ON THIS BIG JOHN
Robert:
Dale! Stop it! Stop it, Stop it!
Brendan:
That’s cute, I remember when I had my first beer
Dale:
That’s so funny the last time I heard that I laughed so hard I fell of my dinosaur!
Robert:
Stop, stop right now, back off. It’s alright, it’s okay.
(Brendan cries)
Dale:
He said a mean thing first.
Robert:
Look guys, you know what, sleeping arrangements. It’s gonna be different, but because Dale refused to give up his office drum set, you two… Dale, you and Brendan are going to have to share a room, it’s just temporary.
Brendan:
Mom, we didn’t talk about this.
Nancy:
Well it’s going to be an exciting adventure.
Robert:
Do you want to show him the room, Dale, and where he can put his stuff?
(Dale huffs)
Nancy:
That’s very kind
Dale:
Goodnight Nancy, and hey listen, I like to have a lot of fresh fruit around me and chocolate chips in my pancakes. K? Write that down, so you don’t forget.
Robert:
She won’t forget
Dale:
She’s mom now, so…
Brendan:
Goodnight mom, goodnight Mr Doback
Robert:
Goodnight Brendan
(Brendan and Robert awkwardly shake hands after hesitantly debating whether to hug or shake hands, Brendan just walks off)
