Showcase Introduction – Lessons Learnt from First Forays into Film-making: Some Thoughts on Script Writing
This presentation, by Mr John Mark Storey is intended for those interested in writing scripts for films in general, and for those contemplating writing documentary film scripts in particular. Mark will talk about his first experience of writing a script for a FINAS (Malaysian Film Board) sponsored documentary on preserving the ritual knowledge of Sabah. He will discuss the criteria for writing a good script and outline the process of developing a story in order to satisfy the requirements of FINAS and the local film industry. On a practical note, he will pass on some tips – in the form of ‘dos and don’ts’ – learnt (sometimes painfully!) during his film-making adventure. Finally, Mark hopes that this short talk and the group discussion that follows will be of value to aspiring local film makers.

In 2009, his idea for a film about Sabah’s ritual culture was one of 12 from several hundred entries selected for sponsorship under the FINAS first-time film makers programme.
