@doctorw2 But, being good at writting, and having good ideas, have nothing to do with the technical aspects of a script. Ideas, inspiration, has more to do with reading, watching and thinking, than writing. Those who speak too much, listen too little.
Everyone has their own tools and methods to write about whatever, but the more tools and techniques you can grasp and handle, the easier you’ll find or develop better personal techniques to make what you want, the way you want it.
I write my own cartoons for youtube and never once planned it out before hand. i usually get a basic idea of what i want it to be about,write the 1st scene, record voices, and then animate the scene, then plan out the next while im at work or something so i’ll have something ready to contribute when i get home. I kind of like being spontanious with my stories, but i also think it’s a good idea to plan them out like this. I’m going to try it this way for my next episode 7 see how it works.

i like to have a nice frieds naneedj.info
if you have natural knack for writing this is a piece of cake but, if you dont have that its going to be hard work for you but, the best thing is to keep writing and writing the more writing you do the better you get the feel of the script and ideas will just spring out of nowhere.
Does anyone know the video order? I want to watch it in sequential order so I get a good understanding. Somebody help me out.
I’m from Brazil and I intend to make a movie. It’s so hard.
This guy knows what he’s doing! Great illustration!
Straightforward and well presented. Improved lighting and camerawork would really add to your message. Thanks for posting.

Got a question:
I have written some of my own scripts but I am not certain on this…
When you write a script you need to do that action part. When I write the action, how do I know when to start a new line, making a new action paragraph… or how do I know when to continue on in the same paragraph?
What I have done is every time the camera were to cut to another person/object, I would start a new action paragraph in that scene. Is this correct? Or is the # of action paragraphs make no differ?
I’ll bet 99% of all high school drama teachers have nothing on the IMDb, and 99% of all Oscar-winning actors would cite their first drama teachers for teaching the ground rules to success.
Your point is the definition of Epic Fail.
something drastic should happen (maybe to a student, or whatever) to make your character to examine and reflect on his misanthropic behaviour. actions and consequences. could be golden
SPLENDID
excellent.
be honest of my idea
a story about a new guy in a new high school. he’s a normal kid, though he’s a bit misanthropic and can be a bit of a jerk. the film revolves around him verbally telling off the bigger jerks in his school instead of beating them. however, he starts thinking if he’s a jerk or someone who’s making a difference. it’s about a film about a person who’s trying to figure himself out.
thank you so much you really helped me alot
I always have trouble with the plot.
indiedickheadmoviechannel…..who cares!
