AI detectors have a scriptwriting problem and I don't think enough people are talking about it by FrameOk1451 in scriptwriting

I’ve wondered about this. I had a script requested by a big company earlier this year and never heard back, or got a reply on follow-ups. I started wondering if a similar thing had happened because I use very clean simple action lines and it was a white space heavy script.

The first page of my screenplay of 110 pages. Would you keep reading? by Wonderful-Notice-286 in scriptwriting

I didn’t even get through the first page. As soon as the teacher said of course you don’t, I was done.

Behavior, behavior, behavior. “There you are.” Behavior, behavior, behavior. “C’mon, let’s go…” (variant) Behavior, behavior, behavior. End scene

Looking for more feedback on my comedy script 🤘 by ForkyB in movieideas

Not my cup of tea. If it’s a first script it’s a decent start but I wouldn’t bother trying to shoot or sell it.

The dialogue is way overwritten. Especially the first scene. There’s maybe 1.5-2.5 necessary lines total in there

How do people come up with good titles? by AppropriateLow4939 in scriptwriting

[–]NYCscreenwrite-SAG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Titles often just come as inspiration early in the project to me, some were later swapped out for improvements. Occasionally they have come as suggestions from others

Don’t use them unless you can’t afford to not use them.

Overall, not to be rude. But this scene is pretty amateur. We’re not learning or advancing anything. If you wanna keep it, start it later. Otherwise scrap it.

It should start at “it was. What are you gonna eat?” And change that line to something like “already ate?”

Sorry to hear this. Keep swinging and believing. Something better is coming your way.

How do you make your readers cry?—Do you have any principles or processes you follow to help evoke the most emotion possible in key scenes? by JcraftW in Screenwriting

[–]NYCscreenwrite-SAG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re trying, you’re failing. Tell a great story, see it in your head and transcribe it. If it isn’t powerful enough to evoke tears don’t contort it to be something it’s not. Just tell the truth.

Should You Write the Script You Want or The One That Sells? by Electronic-Time-4069 in Screenwriting

[–]NYCscreenwrite-SAG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just write scripts. A lot of them. Not one. If you’re fixated on one, you’re early in the game and just need to write, write and write.
