RADIO DRAMA - Script Writing Progress

Tom from our group has written the final scene of our script. I edited the script according to the comments made and the issues raised in the feedback session. The script is now complete, further editing as we go along may occur, but a solid script is ready, and is one we are all happy with. Despite the lack of presence from some team members, the production of our radio drama is going well. The deadline has been met for our first draft script, this week coming will see some further development and our second draft script will be ready for the 21st of January.

We have decided on the name "Possession" for our drama. It's a sinister title, but it's quite vague and so it leaves room for different interpretations. It also makes audiences question what it's about, is it supernatural? Is it a metaphor for something else? One word titles are also stronger than longer titles, one word is easier to remember. "Possession" is also a sinister word and so suggests a horror drama more than anything else. As well as all this, the popularity of films such as "The Exorcist" with the theme of possession will draw those audiences towards our drama, just from the title.
