Monologue Commercial Script

Writing Your Script

Your final step before your last Arts Experience in the next module is writing your script for the monologue commercial. A script is a written version of a broadcast, in this case, your commercial. For this part of the creation process, you will write down everything to be said in your commercial. This script will guide you as you practice reading and performing for the Arts Experience.

Your script should include all the product information provided in the previous assignment: Product name, cost, description, why people should buy it, and where/how it can be purchased.

Assignment

For this assignment, you will submit a script for your monologue commercial using the following steps:

1. Product Information: Type the words you would say to sell your chosen product. You can type in the text entry box or on your device to be submitted to Canvas. As you type your script for this assignment, it should include the following:

1. Product name

2. Description of product

3. Why people should buy it

4. Cost of product

5. Where/how it can be purchased

2. Read aloud & time yourself: Once you have your script typed out, read it out loud. When read aloud, your script should be between 15 and 30 seconds. Write 3-5 sentences of text and get close to the 15-30 second window. Use a timer/stopwatch when reading your script out loud to see how long it takes, and adjust the tempo of your voice if you are over or under your allotted time.

3. Review: Make changes as needed before submitting your final script. These changes can include adding or taking away text, rewriting to sound better, rearranging text to flow better, etc.

For inspiration, use the sample scripts from 12.6 Elements of Voice Practice. Keep in mind that these examples don't mention the product cost, and where/how it can be purchased.
