You see, running a command through "sudo" means it is not executed as your user but as some other user. Which one that is (most times it is "root", but that doesn't have to be so) can be found out only by inspecting the file /etc/sudoers. Have a look at it with "view", "more" or something similar (it is safe to view it but under no circumstances change it!).
As the scripts are executable for everybody already you might consider dumping the "sudo" altogether and just run
instead.
I hope this helps.

script(1) User Commands script(1)NAME
script - make record of a terminal session
SYNOPSIS
script [-a] [filename]
DESCRIPTION
The script utility makes a record of everything printed on your screen. The record is written to filename. If no file name is given, the
record is saved in the file typescript. See WARNINGS.
The script command forks and creates a sub-shell, according to the value of $SHELL, and records the text from this session. The script ends
when the forked shell exits or when Control-d is typed.
OPTIONS
The following option is supported:
-a Appends the session record to filename, rather than overwriting it.
NOTES
script places everything that appears on the screen in filename, including prompts.

privileged user, that is, root. Be sure that typescript is not a link before running script.
