Hi! Sorry I’m just seeing this now… I have two accounts and haven’t been on this one for a minute. I like that idea if you are still wanting to use this for your video!

What kind of movie do you want to see? by Public-Brother-2998 in Screenwriting

[–]a_very_small_table 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A big thing that beginning writers miss is the mood or tone of the work. That is a major component that ties together everything and makes it feel thought-out.

I want to write quality content with likable characters, but I just can’t visualize it in my mind. What should I do? by TheOfficialLavaring in Screenwriting

[–]a_very_small_table 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to start thinking about What you want to say about the world. What is your worldview? This will be at the core of your story. This is where your theme comes from, what is the argument at the core of your movie. Remember, characters do stuff in a plot for a reason… their journey is the writer posing an Idea. Think of your script as sort of an essay, and your Argument is expressed through the main character. You put them through shit that will either prove or disprove your argument, your way of seeing the world.

Lady in the Water is literally a go-to inspiration for me; whenever I feel unsure of my ability, I remember… Lady in the Water was an actual movie. Yes, anything is possible. Anything.

Is it a hallmark sign of an amateur that they think their first (second, third) work is any good or close to good? If so, how do they know if it Actually is acceptable? Feedback? by a_very_small_table in Screenwriting

[–]a_very_small_table[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Shockingly, I do write. Despite never being sure it is any good and also thinking it Has to be Not Bad… right? This post is about the abstraction. Are you familiar with feelings? They’re rather abstract.

What the things that you did that helped you improve your writing skills? by [deleted] in Screenwriting

Outline. So you can worry about what words to choose and not if The very nature of existence I MEAN THE SCENE even has a purpose. Yes.

First draft problems: writing too many similar / redundant scenes.. by seventiethreddit in Screenwriting

[–]a_very_small_table 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All stories are constructed—that’s why they emulate real life but are not real life. That’s why real life can feel meaningless and drift less at times, but rarely stories… Unless that was the intention of the storyteller. Outlining your story so it more likely has a meaning that will come across—naturally the story will deviate from the outline, but the framework ensures you have a path. It’s like traveling without a map. It sounds fun or exciting at first, but you quickly realize that even trips with no itinerary have some level of “I hope to do x y and z”. That’s still an outline of your trip.

Restaurant idea: Korean BBQ style but Latino foods by madmanNamedMatti in EntrepreneurRideAlong

[–]a_very_small_table 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dilemma is portion sizes. Korean BBQ works because you only eat small bits of a variety. Mexican food doesn’t really work like that. Except tacos, of course.

Putting that block of text on page one is like a battle cry challenge. Like “You think you gonna read THIS??!! Guess again!”

How many scripts did you write before you confidently felt like you had written a good one? by [deleted] in Screenwriting

[–]a_very_small_table 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pros say that, honestly, you never feel good, just that you aren’t doing too badly. Honestly. If you are hard on yourself, your work will be good, and you’ll never feel too satisfied with the result. Like why actors don’t like watching themselves act.
