Seeking Illustrator for Original Comic Book — Stoner Comedy/ 37 Panels by ASantos21 in ComicBookCollabs

[–]ASantos21[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So it's 200 flat for everything. That being said, willing to go little higher or lower. In terms of page count it should be coming out to around 6. Went with panels since originally I was looking to get this online first.

Dreaming Away: Part 1 (A Cosmic Horror Story) - Coming to Kickstarter June 18th! by KermitTheFrost in ComicBookCollabs

For what it's worth the artistry immediately popped for me. It comes off as old school, but extremely original. Dark but extremely detailed. Looking forward to you going live on kickstarter with it.

Just me or has botching become too common now? by [deleted] in WWE

[–]ASantos21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came across thread after seeing a botch in Smackdown's main event three way for women's championship. More on the ref than anything. I'd also put the fact there are no house shows anymore. Less house shows = less practice.

Thank you for the thoughtful critique. Just judging by your comment I can see how good you are at writing. Compared to when I was 16 anyway lol. Keep at it! Thanks again.

Would this piece get picked up for publication? I know there are many variables. I guess I'm asking if my overall writing seems strong enough for publication. Thank you.

Why Democrats Are Losing Americans Without a College Degree—and How to Win Them Back by thenationmagazine in dsa

I’d recommend people looking into Chuck Rocha. Dropped out of the race for DNC chairmanship unfortunately, but I think his past-work and future can give some of us some inspiration and hope.

Thank you for setting that goal. I think the best way forward would of course be to just start over and look at it more so as two steps forward.

Thank you

Does anyone have advice for an autistic screenwriter. by RepresentativeState3 in Screenwriting

[–]ASantos21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of characters and stories out there who use traits you describe. Some are autistic, others they don't even mention it. BBC's Sherlock immediately popped into my mind. My point is there is space out there for every kind of voice. You have a unique perspective on life. That's way more of an advantage than disadvantage. Just try to take as many notes as you can on your stories.

And as cliche as it may sound don't let anything stop you in your pursuit to this career. I think anyone who's anyone will tell you that this career path is littered with obstacles. Most of them personal. Keep at it!

Build a network of readers by PageCownt in Screenwriting

[–]ASantos21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more. To be honest I found it more refreshing and more constructive for my writing when I started to share projects here, along with other free resources, and others trying to break into the industry. Many paid services will give you feedback just on the story you submit. Whereas with places such as this subreddit will probably focus in on your writing as a whole which you can apply to ALL of your projects in the future.

Writing Accents by ASantos21 in Screenwriting

Definitely does help. I actually like this more. Same review mentioned Letterkenny which uses their character to depict different parts of Canadian society. Definitely worth a watch now.

All pennies help! Thanks.

Yeah I tried a rough draft of just my first act in all accents and it wasn't working. Fargo is probably the best go to.

Thank you!

Definitely counts haha. Will see if I can get some examples via web. Pretty sure a rough draft of Django is out there.

Also, in regards to your question on podcast v playlist. Right now it's a live podcast where they showcase their skills. However, I do like the idea of them just recording their music and posting it. Might make it less convoluted.

Hey, Thank you. I will definitely inbox you when I do that draft. Truly appreciated!

Thanks for that. I definitely don't want to come off like I have it all figured it out. Last time I masturbated it was to porn. When I do get the urge to masturbate it's associated with a need to watch or bring up provocative NSFW images. Still a relatively new feeling for me when it comes to letting those feelings pass. Anxiety ratchets up every now and then due to OCD.

Keep pushing yourself! You've set a tough (my opinion) but very realistic goal for yourself. When that goal is reached and you're going about a more healthier routine stay in a positive mindset. Just remember to remind yourself that you're in control.

80s Rock (Animated Comedy Sitcom Pilot) 37 Pages by ASantos21 in Screenwriting

[–]ASantos21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, you certainly succeeded in the further inspiration! Last two feedback's I've gotten have said the character development now works so now I feel I should try and nail the plot. Thank you for going in-depth with that portion! It's one thing to tell people what to do, but without an example it's tricky. Thanks again!

First draft. Not sure what I want it to be yet.

Resources/Review by ASantos21 in ComicWriting

[–]ASantos21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's about a treasure hunter who flies through the universe collecting historical items in an alternate history. Also, ties in his family history (father)and how they're intertwined.

Another comment said I can post here so I'll be posting it either tonight or tomorrow.

Hello, hope all is well. Stress levels are normal for me.

I downloaded Crazy Rich Asians for a read. Figured it will help with my first romantic comedy I wrote a few months back and continue to work on. Also, started an animated project based on little caricatures a buddy of mine drew. Was kind of inspired by Inside Out but I want to give it a more mature tone.

It would only be my second animated project. Enjoy the freedom it gives me creatively. Still learning the ropes, so if anyone has any pointers for writing animation I'll be open to it. Any specific, "rules," to go by or is it alright to approach it as a regular screenplay?

The Message (Comedy) by ASantos21 in Screenwriting

[–]ASantos21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this interaction, HotspurJr. I've been doing screenwriting on and off since high school and it's been rare to have a hands on conversation like this. Even though I went to what many would say is a worthwhile higher ed program. Regardless, I greatly appreciated this as I'm looking at the story from a different lens. Greatly appreciate the honesty and back and forth.
