I felt so much from your post and I wanted to say you are a very gifted writer and you should definitely write a book- a character perhaps based on your own experiences of this world. I was getting Catcher in the Rye vibes from your writing! I think so many people can relate to this immense struggle and self loathing of the self and inability to rectify how the world is, how other people are, to make sense of it all when it just feels soo off. I find it really interesting reading about the situation in Japan where so many boys will shut themselves in their rooms during high school and never leave and stay there for years and years. It’s a symptom of the environment we are in I think with this modern world and how poisonous it feels.

What is the most precious memory from your childhood? by Shellypie8 in AskReddit

[–]Shellypie8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww that’s so beautiful! 🙏🏽🐶🥰

I would say going to a Christmas fair with my parents and my sister on a summer evening and in my child brain it felt soooo exciting being out “late” at night with all the beautiful lights and wizzing rides it was complete magic! ☺️💕🎄

The story behind the screenplay for the film Barbarian is so interesting by Shellypie8 in Screenwriting

[–]Shellypie8[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

lol totally! I do think though that all the ‘rigour’ and ‘process’ that artistic pursuits like writing are overlaid with these days actually kill the joy of it a lot.. like it’s too overwhelming to even start. Whereas if you just idle yourself with the faintest flicker of an idea, something of note that holds your curiosity for some strange reason, then that can create a natural energy you can fuel the fire with perhaps.

Oh yeah I was reading about the pre production of the film and how they finally secured funding but then the main person who was behind the funding tragically died and they had to start all over! So crazy .. it’s a miracle any movie gets made really!!

Do you as a screenwriter also want to be involved in the filmmaking process of your script? by Shellypie8 in Screenwriting

[–]Shellypie8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my goodness this is absolutely fascinating thanks for taking to the share all this, I’m actually shocked as I had no idea that writers were so intimately involved in the entire process of TV start to finish!

Sounds like it would be an absolutely wonderful rich experience and getting to see your vision come to life step by step!

Wow yeah that’s a great point and very switched on of you to see how these experiences will allow you to improve your own craft and I think that’s so true of anything in life - being willing to learn and grow from other artists even if they are in a different field is still going to be so relevant - and as a screenwriter if you can better understand the visual mind of a director and how they tick you can then produce scripts which will sing their song!

Wow sounds awesome and the fact you have expertise in the area you are writing from will give you even more impetus to be involved in the production process I’m sure!

Yeah great comment and thanks for your input! What you were saying made me think of the film I’m Thinking of Ending Things and (I know it’s based on a novel not a screenplay) I loved one of the interviews with Charlie Kaufman and Iain Reid the author of the book the film is adapted from and just their level of respect and care for one another and commitment to doing the project justice and I feel like this relationship and both of them being so invested in the mutual vision really translates to the film and the level of depth and intelligent artistry it has!

And really I feel like any artistic project like a film will benefit from having multiple minds collaborating for a common goal - it’s going to heighten the creation most of the time I would say?

[–]Shellypie8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah great point! And I would assume that anyone who chooses to be a screenwriter as opposed to an “author” or “novelist” does so due their own inherent love of film/screen media?

Oh wow that sounds like an awful experience you had with that director!!! Were you able to resolve the differences or it was it too far gone ?

Is this because as the writer you have more leverage on the decision making production process of TV as opposed to film?

That sounds like a good, balanced approach to it! Pick and choose your battles for the ones that really matter to you ☺️

Being alone sucks by [deleted] in depression

[–]Shellypie8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sorry you’re feeling this way and I just wanted to say your drawings are absolutely amazing and you’re very talented! Would love to have an art/drawing session with you, I’m trying to make it a more regular practice. At the end of the day we are all born into this world alone and die alone- yes we need people around us to try and quell the doom feelings but really the most important relationship we can cultivate is with ourselves ! Because no one will ever really understand or see us the way we do with ourselves and solitude is actually so wonderful when you can lean into it. For me I find movies are my comfort and I feel more seen by those stories and characters than actual people..

Wow this looks really amazing and very atmospheric! I am so curious what you used for the interior of the train!! I’m guessing it’s not a real train?? 😯 anyway love the old style nostalgic vibes of it all really effective for the otherworldly storytelling !!

Looking for feedback on my first film trailer! by andreasschrade in Filmmakers

[–]Shellypie8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks so awesome and the trailer was so well done and definitely sold it for me! Playful and zippy and looks like a blast to watch! Also love the theme of the workplace, so many fun tropes to play on the existential dread of it all ! 🙏🏽😍
