The simplest answer would be to try writing it like you're telling it to someone. You could use a "rubber duck" method to test it out: Place a rubber duck (or something similar) next to your computer or wherever you write, pretend it's a person, and try to explain the manuscript to it from your point of view. Make sure to insert your personal reactions/feeling on things, don't just read the script. Make it conversational. That should give you a good idea of where to start regarding the style of writing.

From there you shouldn't have to rewrite too much, you'll mostly be changing little phrases here and there to reflect the first-person view.
