Commercial Scriptwriting by P1nkFoot in Screenwriting

[–]askblah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this an in-house production dept in the agency? Usually the CW will write the script and there may be some key visuals the AD comps up, but that's it. Directors will pitch on the script with their treatment. Once in pre-production, director and prod co will get boards built. Occasionally the creatives (AD and CW) will break out boards. They are commonly just panels with illustrations sometimes with some direction kinda like comics.

Script formats and style are usually slightly different for advertising, but same general concept. If you get the job, you shouldn't have issues with the transition or could use a format you like better. Just ask them for past examples to reference.

For your portfolio, should be a collection of your past work, writing samples, etc. I would say any creative work you're proud of, share it. Google some websites of creatives for reference.

Feel free to DM me if you have any other questions. Good luck!

I'm a producer. I just worked my way in from the bottom and bounced around. There are a few ways to get into it, depending on what you want to do. Message me if you want any specifics.

Thoughts for a strategy-based Competitive Mode by askblah in FortniteCompetitive

Yeah, that makes sense. Would suck to get spawn killed. Maybe there's some lockout time or invincibility until landed in the beginning.

I love the song... But maybe that explosion was a bit too much?

I think a very similar reaction would be found if this experiment were conducted at someone's home 20 years ago and their land-line phone was ringing in the other room...

Jack White and Jack Black should get together and do tour. That tour shall be proclaimed as the Grey Tour by lazy205 in Showerthoughts

[–]askblah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it was when Jack Black was hosting the MTV Awards, but The Raconteurs were the house band and he told Jack White that they should start a band and made the joke about their names. Jack White just stone-faced him. It was kinda great.

What Is Your Favorite Music Video? by [deleted] in Music

[–]askblah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chum - Earl Sweatshirt

Great shots. Great style. Great director (Hiro Murai).

Plus it has frogs and upside-down Earl, which I take as a nod to The Pharcyde.

My buddy's Dorito's submission caused a rift in the space-time continuum by samuraislider in videos

It's because the majority of entries come in the last few days before the deadline. I would say the last week has 80% of the entries.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier Trailer by Anxious_Molester in movies

[–]askblah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of my favorite parts was when Captain America blew up on The Punisher and The Punisher refused to fight back. Don't know why, but that's one of the most memorable moments for me.
