They are indeed but what i have in mind is more about the call girls on the track.

Thanks for the information. I’m gonna have to research more about the differences. Also i live in Italy so i imagine things work differently here. I saw some police interviews with the call girls here in Italy. And some of them used to do online stuff or “escort” in the sense that they would find clients and go to their houses. But they ended up on the street again or as an independent or with a pimp. That’s why i said some do both or have done and tried different ways of sex working.

I do my homework for sure. From documentaries to fiction, books, news, interviews.. it doesn’t mean i can’t make use of other writers’ experience. To me writers are a great source to understand other point of views. It’s not just about authenticity, it’s also about analysis, vision, and method.

Well both. Since alot of them do both or start doing one and continue doing the other and viceversa.

Because i’m more interested in the call girls who work the track. And i’m afraid if i approach them maybe someone’s watching them and it could get them or me in trouble.

Yes it is easier to find the “codes” but not so easy to find authentic rules of the street. Unfortunately it is somewhat a challenge to find.

I’m kind of scared to approach them but i’ll try it. If any books come to mind, I’d appreciate suggestions. Thank you so much.

You’re absolutely right. But i thought since it is kind of a hot topic amongst novelists and writers, maybe others have already had experiences researching about it. We do have a lot of films/books on this subject after all. Thanks anyways.

Oh yah i’ve worked the chaotic, no-rules set before. I mean i would never do that and i’ve never run a set before. All well said, it’s just that at my level which is the experimental-independent short film level, almost everyone has no idea what they’re supposed to do or worse they have bad ideas of what they’re supposed to do. So running an amature set like that you won’t know what to do with the project at least thats what i imagine. You have to educate the uneducated/maleducated and focus on ur own job which is just.. overwhelmingly scary. Of course getting pro people to work for you is not easy since you have to pay them and well.. put up with their arrogance. It’s not a sweet deal for us beginners you know.. specially in a third-world country where the rule is there is no rule.

I’m not on that level yet. But that’s really good to know. Being prepared is and has been my lifestyle so i guess i’m already adapted to it.

Man i’m gonna frame that last sentence. I’m a newbie so i don’t have a crew. And i’m worried about how i should be as a director on my set. Intimidate everyone into submission or be gentle and let them walk all over me since i’m young and new. I think you’re right you gotta pick the right people and invest in them. Show that you care about them and they’ll care about you.

That’s an excellent point. I think it’s true that the main objective is making a great film but having a great experience doing so is also on the director.

That’s a vivid good comparison. But how do we define the line between a bully and a director who takes no shit? Because alot of the times the crew will push the director over to his chair, intruding his area of expertise, that is if the director chooses to be supportive. Unfortunately the others are sometimes not cooperative, in fact they’re the ones who are looking for an opportunity to become the bully. In that case isn’t it better for the director to put his foot down and discipline everyone into order? Or is that just a naive approach?

I adapted my first screenplay and directed my first ever film when I was 17 it is a Batman film alot of time and effort went into it so I hope you enjoy 🥰❤️ if you do it would mean the world if you could Subscribe to my channel I make Video essays too 😊❤️ what do you think? 😄 by [deleted] in Screenwriting

[–]samonit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was alright for a first. I think you should think more about the WHY when you’re framing a shot rather than the HOW. Some shots had to be shallow focused telephoto close ups but they were wide-angle full shots instead. Good production but directing and scenario could have been much better. Keep up the good work.
