1. Analysis of Script
a.) 1.) Elisa- (girl) Elisa is from the suburbs. Her likes are in fashion and coffee. She went to school to study fashion design and now works in a local coffee shop in order to regain herself before grad school/
2.) Dan- (boy) also lives in the suburbs. He likes to ride his bike and loves his dog. His girlfriend lives and studies abroad. He is currently trying to get a good job after graduating college.
b.) 1. ) Elisa- she loves parties. She hates not being able to attend events lately because she works so many hours trying to save up money for grad school. She has sold and pawned off most of her valuable clothes. Now she really wants to attend this party but seriously can’t decide what to wear. She has a handful of possibilities but may have to make the clothes herself.
2.) Dan currently does not have a job which means he does not have money. He likes to spend money. He also has a bit of a drinking problem. He has to do enough chores around his parent’s house so he can get some money for the party. He wants to buy some booze for the evening.
c.) 1.) Elisa- she will borrow some of her friend’s clothes for the evening. She feels that she has gained weight though, and can’t fit into anything. She will have to make a new outfit from scratch. It will be cheaper anyway, then buying something.
2.) Dan- has to mow the lawn, pass out papers, and do some busy work for his father's office so he can get some cash for the evening.
