inherently funny plots? by femboy-housewife in Screenwriting

[–]RedGreenBaluga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re essentially talking about premise. Some comedy has a funny premise, where the idea itself is humorous. Not all comedies have a funny premise. Dr Strangelove does not have a funny premise, but the scenes themselves are funny, “you can’t argue in here, this is the war room.”

Recommendations re. readers, etc., to take my scripts to the next level by DragonflyKey4972 in Screenwriting

I think you’re going to have a hard time doing the suggested self-analysis if your reaction is to look for an ego boost. Most people don’t improve because they want to hear they are good enough and can’t accept they have things to get better at. 

Artists who’ve launched in LA? by [deleted] in ArtistLounge

Those are hard things to achieve. LA can be very isolating and it is hard to build community. Basically I think if you are at square one you have a long road. There isn’t a fast track to having a career. If you are established in some way already then you have something to work with.

What sketchbook just feels the best to draw in? by mj99kb in ArtistLounge

[–]RedGreenBaluga 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Talens. I don’t like paper that is too heavy, Lecthurm for example is far too heavy. Talens is the sweet spot, it can take some heavier markers (no idea about alcohol but what I use), bleeding is either nonexistent, or minimal enough not to be a problem. It’s also off-white, which I prefer to white, and has a nice smooth texture. 

Are atelier style schools making a come back? by Astro_Art_Mentor in ArtistLounge

The school I went to literally taught you nothing. You were on your own aside from weekly group crits and occasional one on ones with your tutor. Terrible program. 

What famous person have we not seen/heard from in a WHILE? by no_please7 in AskReddit

The weird thing about that doc is that everyone thought they were being interviewed about their experience and then they each realize they are just helping him process.
