1. Green means Added Later. Improvements made to make script longer,
and more dramatic, but also giving more information on the
characters.
The future.
Screenplay written by Megan and Navpreet.
EXT – TOWN STREET – DAY
A girl, whose identity is irrelevant, is walking down the street
with her Iphone in hand. The screen is up, facing the sky, with
reflections of tree’s and the surroundings around them both. The
iphone is playing music, the song is happy (Walking on sunshine),
and reveals that the iphone is happy in its currents position, and
is the centre of attention.
The girl is wearing average clothing, leggings, a top, a coat of
sorts and has long hair. However we only, mainly see her hand. There
is now jewellery, she is a student. She is not married or engaged.
So no ring is shown. Her iphone is also wearing a ‘coat’; it’s a
protective layer around it. This shows us how much the owner of the
gadget is caring for her new gadget.
The girl turns to someone, and starts to talk; the screen turns on
as she turns off the music to talk to her friend.
The girl’s words are quiet, and begin to fade. You can briefly make
out what she is saying as we focus on the iphone’s screen, which is
tilted at the girls face like it is looking in adoration.
GIRL:
“Hey! It’s been so long; you still up for tomorrow night right?”
As we see the girl talking, the iphone’s voice is heard.
IPHONE (V.O):
“This is my guardian. She cares for me, and takes me everywhere with
her.
The girl flicks her hair, putting the iphone in her pocket.
IPHONE (V.O):
“I have never been so close to someone before. The others are
jealous of me. I am her favourite.”

2. The girl and her friend finish their convocation, and turn away
waving.
IPHONE (V.O):
“It seems we will have another night out together. I cannot wait.”
Fade out to black.
INT – IN GIRLS BEDROOM – DUSK
There is make up scattered around, the girl grabs her bag,
forgetting the iphone. She leaves it on the desk. There is a book on
the bookshelf, which is out of place. On the desk, there is a
computer and monitor, a printer, a ps3 on top of the printer, and a
large TV above the desk. It’s starting to get dark and so an
artificial light is left on. In her hurry, the girl has left it on,
wasting electricity. There are various objects around her desk, like
a few pieces of rubbish and paper with work on, showing she is a
student. There are also pens on the desk. The iphone Is staring up
at the ceiling, until the door slams shut, making it obvious that
the girl has left the building.
IPHONE (V.O):
“...She’s...She’s gone..? Have I...been left? Has she forgotten
about me? M-maybe she will come back...”
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Don’t be silly kid. She can’t be with you for every second of the
day.”
Books voice is old, like his pages. He is smart and wise. We see
book, propping himself up, and shuffling over to the edge of the
bookcase, closer to Iphone. The book has been left on the side by
accident.
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Welcome to my world...”
The iphone’s screen lighting up, it moves around, standing itself
up.
IPHONE (V.O):
“Your world ..? What do you mean?”
The book moves closer, as if to speak more personally.

3. WISE BOOK (V.O):
“You are new to this world. You have so much to learn. Back in my
day, we books were treasured, we went from hand to hand,
entertaining and educating the human kind. We were everywhere. We
were taken everywhere...just like you are now...”
IPHONE (V.O):
“R- Really? Then what changed? Did you get too old? Did you get
boring? Did someone prettier come along?”
The book moves back, a little overwhelmed by the amount of
questions.
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“One thing at a time young one...Many things changed...The humans
are easily displeased.”
The Iphone moves closer, he is interested in what the book is
teaching him.
IPHONE (V.O):
“Displeased?”
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Well, they're lazy. My ancestors have been lost to history
because of the humans laziness. Everything is electric and
interactive to them now.”
The iphone turns away from him.
IPHONE (V.O):
“You mean, like I am?”
The book appears to nod, tilting its body.
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Indeed. My kind is slowly...fading out. Soon, I'm sure, no one will
want us.......”
It Cuts to a short clip of books forcing themselves off the shelves
to their demise. The faint noise of their cries is heard, as they
throw themselves off.

4. As we cut back to the room, we find other objects waking up. The TV
turns on, a DS springs up. The computer turns its screen on. The
Iphone and the book turn to look at them. One of the objects speaks.
DS (V.O):
“We've all been there. My relatives were...dumped in the dark for
me...”
The screen cuts to a game boy and a game boy advance, dead...with
no batteries. A Nintendo 64 chucked in the cupboard by a game cube;
Looks like they are huddled together.
The DS’s voice is like an average teenager, they were obviously a
new ‘toy’ once, but has also learned the value of their short lives.
The on button flickers from red to green.
PS3 (V.O):
“Same with mine, they’re not even cared for...”
The computer screen draws a sad face on it which then phases to move
and talk.
PC (V.O):
“...I don't have anyone left...They....threw him in a skip!”
A tear appears on the computer screen by the face. The PCs voice is
almost monotone.
The iphone is silent for once; it turns to everyone, then back to
Wise book.
IPHONE (V.O):
“...Does that mean...something is coming to replace me?”
An iPod falls down from the computer monitor, shuffling its way to
Iphone.
IPOD (V.O):
“It does indeed. I am Nano, part of the Apple family, like you.”
Iphone turns to her.
IPHONE (V.O):
“Uh...I'm sorry...B-but why would anyone wish to replace me...I...I
want to know what could be better than me!”

5. The gadgets look to Iphone, and then turn to computer. Computer has
a “...” on the screen, and then goes to the apple website.
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Child...We come and go that is our purpose. Please do not be
frightened by what computer finds on your family tree...”
The web page then loads on a photo of an IPAD.
The Iphone gasps.
IPHONE (V.O):
“..They look so pretty...I am no match...I'll...be thrown down the
toilet!”
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Get a hold of yourself. We don't last forever. Make the most of
now...I mean...look how expensive it is with a new member to the
family. If your guardian did not love you, you would off been left
here long ago...This is life, life is not perfect...”
IPHONE (V.O):
“Life...My guardian... I will always be in your memories...Thank
you...Umm...book right? Thank you for giving me a reason to respect
others...I am sorry for your losses...”
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“It is fine. We move on, and accept our fates. What else can we do?
Have a good life, young Iphone...”
A door is heard opening, the objects panic. And scurry back to their
places. Some hide, unable to return to where they started. Iphone
resumes his blank stare at the ceiling. The girl comes running in
and grabbing him, and exiting with him in hand.
Once she has gone, book watches the door, and then drops into the
bin where he was supposed to be.
WISE BOOK (V.O):
“Good luck young one. You learn fast...”
As he hits the bins bottom, a thud is made.

6. [FADE OUT]
Cut to credits.
Changed the name to the “Girl”, originally she had a common name,
such as “Lucy” or “Emily”. However, she is not a main role. No one
has a name in the piece.
However, we included how she looked in the descriptions since the
audience will still see her. She has to look the type of person to
have an iphone phone, and the latest gadgets.
Title used to be “Technology”, Then “Changes.”
We decided on “The future together, since this film is about life,
and accepting that we all 'grow up'
Added more lines for “Wise Book” because he was a main character and
it was needed in some points to help keep the story flowing.
We added 'DS' to add another 'mainstream' gadget, but has also been
in the same place as 'IPHONE' at one point.
Gave computer human emotions, by making it draw a sad face and cry.
It links to the “ecta'sketch” in 'Toy Story'
