Answer 1

Answer:

a formal atmosphere, with a straight face principal and a worried student.

Explanation:

The scene opens with lighting on the principal who is sitting behind a desk and talking to someone on the call. The desk a few files and books stacked to the side, a pen holder and a paper weight on the other. There are two chairs in front of her desk for visitors. She has a long chair but she doesn't move it much. Her posture is straight and her face without any emotions, she starts to write something on a piece of paper but it is not said what. She puts the receiver down as the door to her office opens. Arianna opens the door to the principal's office and looks at the principal as if asking for permission. The principal will nod and Arianna pulls one of the chair to sit in front of the principal. Arianna's expression will change from questioning to worried but the principal's expression will remain the same. Arianna's will be small as she sinks in the chair while the principal remains straight through out.
