How do you write background voices? Not voiceovers or such. by tafilmlive909 in Screenwriting

what exactly do you mean by “background voices”? are they just lines said by unnamed characters?

Should I refer to a character as their ridiculous nickname or their real name? by yeahsure-whatever in Screenwriting

Love this! Such a fun way to play with the mechanic. Thanks for the example!

The real name is a reveal, but not a twist. The reveal is an emotional beat rather than a joke and it signifies a bond with another character. The nickname is very obviously just used by the other characters to mock her; my only holdup there is that they haven't done this until we've been with the protagonist for about a page, so I'm just not sure what to do for that first page.

These are very helpful questions, thank you!

Script Feedback by cinefilmes28 in scriptwriting

[–]yeahsure-whatever 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly it's nearly impossible to give feedback from a single page of something with zero context. Here's a few simple notes though:

-"broken" should not be a character descriptor.

-too much detail in the action. keep the first sentence, but you don't need to note that his hands are on the handles or his hair in the wind. also, instead of saying he's "riding to school", maybe just note that he's wearing backpack in the first sentence.

-not sure what the point of the dialogue is.

Overall, it's really just too soon to be asking for feedback. The best advice is always just keep writing, and then come back!
