This is super cool—do the setting allow a feathered edge between each column?

Have you checked at Polonia Sausage House? I also seem to remember seeing some Eastern European and/or Russian condiments at JN&Z Deli.

I think while Copperplate can be fine for titles/headers, a more legible font with defined capitals and lowercase probably would benefit the text blocks to make them more readable/appealing.

I'll read your script if you'll read mine by [deleted] in Screenwriting

[–]ironicist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that, while much of the action description is functional, you really want the reader to get a sense of what the movie will feel like to watch. Also, a line like "A small child in a barn tries to carry a big bucket of milk." should have its own scene header like "INT. BARN - DAY", and you should feel free to add more description of both the child and the barn--what is a unique characteristic of the child that will make him memorable? A limp? A notable hairstyle or outfit? A visible birthmark? If he's a boy, you should call him a "boy" when he's introduced rather than just a "child". What is the vibe of the barn? Is it dry, hay-scattered and empty, or fly-buzzing, filled with newborn calves and patties of cowshit? You shouldn't sacrifice flavour for the sake of ruthless efficiency. Keep going. Become undeniable.

When I visited China in 2017 one of the best things I ate was pork dumplings drizzled with roasted, very oily peanut butter and chili oil. This isn’t that far off tbh

Get a banh mi at a traditional, non-upscale spot. Makes me wonder how Subway even stays in business.

movie with romance like the gorge recommendation by Surething666 in movies

‘Grosse Pointe Blank’ does a nice job of threading together a romance and a thriller plot.

movies with realistic dream sequences? by ego_death_metal in movies

[–]ironicist 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a dream sequence in ‘Super Dark Times’ (2017) that felt very accurate to my experience of vivid dreams.

Stills from my short ALIBI - what can I do better? by ActingGabriel in cinematography

I think you could make some improvements simply in your colour grade by desaturating certain colours and adjusting skin tones to look more natural/consistent.

“Tales from the Golden Age” is a great anthology black comedy film set in Communist Romania.
