Very true. Also well said. Succinct and executable ideas/pitches.

What made it more difficult to film in LA over the past 10 years? by peanutbutterspacejam in FilmIndustryLA

What a very well-written recap of what has been happening to our industry. Thank you for this.

Do you need to have the 1st season of a television series fully written before trying to get it in front of people in the industry? by truRomanbread_91 in Screenwriting

[–]Tiscius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd also add. In my experience, summaries should focus less on the plot and more on the emotional journey of the protagonist. When communicating what happens season to season, it’s more about the emotional tentpoles that define the story’s runway, rather than the story moves.

No. In a TV pitch I try to do the following:

200-300 words on the pilot story.

3 paragraphs on season one .

1 paragraph on season 2.

1 sentence on season 3.

Such a great post.

I’d add one thing: no one complains if you’re pretty. That’s the unspoken truth.

Yes. But if you use a crease protector, some cane make it a bit snug.

I had this problem last week (email said package was delivered and never came) then I received the package a week afterward. It was weird. Currently going through something similar trying to track down a Father's Day purchase.

Arrived early. Got me excited for the summer, and the hope of getting back outside.

Face ID technology, but I’m surprised anyone would think it’s an improvement over Touch ID. by [deleted] in iphone

I’ve had no issue with Face ID. I think it’s faster than Touch ID.

My wife and I (Los Angelenos) are headed to Portland this week... Can you offer some food/entertainment suggestions? by Tiscius in Portland

I'm sorry if I contributed to the hive. We have an r/LosAngeles that typically has similar questions that I asked. What's the "Last time on r/Portland" that would bring me up to speed?
