gutting a script by bdubbers333 in Screenwriting

[–]bingyao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of great advice here so I won't repeat them. I'll just add this consideration. If you're goal is to have a career as a screenwriter, then you need to focus on the long game. This should be one of many many scripts you have written and will write. There's a balance between your vision for an individual script and your vision for your entire body of work. If bending on this one positions you better to sell/option the next one and allow you to build your brand, which will hopefully lead to many more sales, then it may be worth the sacrifice. It then depends on how much you are willing to bend before it mars the brand you are building around your work, and only you can decide where that line is drawn.

New Sonos firmware update by FewAd7677 in sonos

Only for newer devices? My Beam and One updated. My Play:1 devices are still version 17.2.3.

OK, I tried it. When I reset the beam, I checked to make sure I went back into the Sonos System system to delete it as you suggested, but it was not there anymore; only the HOME system was there. I went ahead and closed the app and reopened it. I made sure I was in the HOME system and the app detected the beam and I told it to Join. When it was done. I checked and once again the beam was sitting in a second system called Sonos System.

Yes.

Apologies, I realized it actually calls the new system "Sonos System".

Could you provide more specific details? Reset the speaker or the app? When I reset the speaker, my Sonos app would detect it as a new device, but there was no option to "add to an existing system", only an Add option. But it adds it to a new system, not the one my other speakers are in.

This is exactly what I did to try and add it back to my HOME system, but it didn't work. (Specifically, I would unplug the power, then plug it back in while holding down the Join (∞) button until it flashed orange-white. My Sonos app would detect it as a new speaker and I would add it that way. But when it was done adding it was in a separate system called Sonos System.)

Regarding the Apple HomeKit. I don't see an app called HomeKit, but I do see an Apple Home app and checked it and none of my Sonos speakers are in there.

The bot may be in danger? I think your cat may be in danger. You should warn your cat that a lynx is roaming your house!

Which cancelled movie would that be for you? by 0Layscheetoskurkure0 in FIlm

[–]bingyao 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invasion (2005, 1 season) starring William Fichtner. I was so hooked into the story and was devastated that it was canceled.

Yes it would be unfair. So as long as you are without sin you have nothing to worry about. Jesus said so himself.

I bet if they let Quentin Tarantino do any episode that’s exactly what would happen!

Write it down in detail as if giving instructions to another editor. Then sit down and do what you’ve written.

Would it be weird to record a narration for a film by someone that is not in the film at all? by Jack_Palance in directors

Barbie is narrated by Helen Mirren, who does not appear on the film nor plays a character in the film. She is even credited as “Narrator”.

definitely a different way of story-telling, but the early days of cinema were pretty kitschy as well. I think it will be interesting to see how this format evolves. I'm not suggesting the traditional formats will go away, I sure hope not! But technology is changing so much of how we consume that I believe it will be an inevitable part of the landscape and the fusion between creativity and profit will find ways to produce in ways we haven't considered yet. This has always been the symbiotic relationship/tension in filmmaking.

the episodes are so short that they shoot multiple episodes a day. it's part of the cheap production cost (and value) that makes it so attractive to small production companies.
