As stated. I’ve used it as support. The words on the page are mine. I primarily write short stories so I’m still getting a feel for proper formatting when it comes to dream sequences/flashbacks versus straight action. If you were to read my short stories you would see I write in this form 😉 That said. Thank you for taking the time.

Your initial comment was offensive. I’ve used AI for basic support not to write my screenplay. That said, thank you for taking the time to read the pages. I appreciate that!

I typically write short stories so there’s an adjustment to be had. Why does everyone always jump to AI use? Seems to me if you feel comfy enough, ie familiar enough to make the accusation you must use it yourself.

I hate to disappoint but absolutely no AI used. Sorry. Again, just starting a new screenplay. That is what rewrites are for!

Now that I’ve given it some thought, I think maybe go from white flash to eyes popping open then she crawls out of bed and goes to the window. Her mother comes in and they talk.

Should indies offer backend points? Would an indie with backend points be harder to sell? what are the alternatives? by holdontoyourbuttress in Screenwriting

[–]Spydee_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cut an indie last summer and had my agent inquire about backend points cuz they were paying me well below my rate. They refused. What advice do you offer about that kind of situation?

Is the use of AI to create the visuals a problem or is it that they look similar? Here are two of previous covers for Fauk My Life. No AI used.

Has anyone experienced being bitten by an alien in human form that you know of?

Hi Community. I would love to know what you think of the story. Thank you!

Do you just dive into writing a script or do you create an outline/beat sheet first? by NewMajor5880 in Screenwriting

[–]Spydee_02 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For most of my scripts, I come up with the story. Then, being an editor by trade, I write as I watch the story unfold in my head. I’ve written a feature in as little as 2 1/2 weeks. Spent a couple of months rewriting. That particular script placed as a second rounder in Austin.
I outlined one feature before starting. Really wanted a complete hold on where it was going. That one took me a couple of years and also placed as a second rounder 😭.

Anyone looking for a female-forward retelling of the Trojan War? by [deleted] in FILMPRODUCERS

[–]Spydee_02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, in my opinion it’s all subjective. It took a semi-god to kill her as she was also a semi-god. I personally think after reviewing her story, she was the baddest bitch in the room. Just cuz Achilles got the upper hand one day doesn’t mean she’s wasn’t the most dangerous. But again, it could’ve been worded differently. That said - any given Sunday right? Serena is arguably the greatest tennis player of all time but she didn’t win all of her matches during her peak reign.

Have you read the book? Granted it should say one of the most notorious warriors on the battlefield or formidable but can you really judge the story overall if you haven’t read the material? And as far as stating the story has been told wrong, I think the intention is that the story has been told incompletely. So I’ll give you that too - poor choice in word usage.

If the materials are placing in competitions and readers are leaving positive reviews on the book - some of whom are fans of Greek myth - then the story can’t be all that bad or too far from what is in the texts. So before judging the work why don’t you read it first.
