When we had our third drafts finalized, it was time to move on to scripting. Scripting is necessary to make the listeners more engaged with the story as the reader is performing. It allows for the reader to change tones of voice, speed of reading, and makes space for pauses and breathes. We did this by making words bold, or having them in italics, even some words underlined. I used to bold whenI wanted to emphasize something or say it louder than everything else. I used italics to slow down words as well as to elongate them. The underlined words were words that I wanted to say very very clearly. I also used other ques that allowed me to pause, takes breathes, speed up or slow down my words. For pauses, I used long spaces like this one. For breathes I would use "(BREATHE)". For words that I wanted to make clear I would.use.periods.like.this.
