It's my narrative director debut film. Yes, it's a "no" budget ZZYZX Films production. However, if you look at my credits and the fact that I am represented by UTA... that could be quite a plus for any talented screenwriter that wants to collaborate on a short story that floors everyone that reads i...

I'm new here and just wondering if there are any other Save the Cat followers here. I have read Save the Cat, Save the Cat Strikes Back, and Save the Cat goes to the Movies. I love the structure ideas that Blake presents with the Beat Sheet and his expansion upon that Beat Sheet. It has helped me im...

Blake Snyder has absolutely helped me. I also love Frank Daniel's 8-Sequence System. He taught it at USC and AFI. His and Blake's guides are the most popular structures at www.scriptoutliner.com
How long does it truely take to complete a screenplay?
Could be. It all depends on the size, the genre and how many rewrites. Also, if you need to do extensive research, you also need to take that in account. For me a first draft of a short usually takes...

The reason it takes so long for people to write something is that most people don't have a story. Wait, what!? This is how it happens: they start writing and figuring out things as they write it. Then...

If you have a story and know the characters it will take you two weeks. I just wrote my 65 page TV pilot in eight days. I wrote my first feature film 99 pages in two weeks.
Does anyone have a copy of the Sharknado script? I have searched online and only come up with a crap .PDF with dialogue only. There must be someone out there willing to share this masterpiece!
Peter, James Gunn got his start working for Trina, writing and directing. Now, he has written and directed both Guardians of the Galaxy movies. So, even those movies have something they can teach us.
It is true, you have to crawl before you can walk. There is no rhyme or reason why something or someone makes it. Don't be duped by low budget. Always shoot for the stars. You don't have to think low...

forget Sharkando, try Tommy Wiseau's the Room...now that's a true gem :)
I am currently writing a (non-screenplay) story on a forum. Some replies weren't focused on the work itself, but on me, as a writer. Some said " Quit writing! Plow the field instead!", others said: " I hope you have a serious job!". Another one said: " You have absolutely no clue on this subject!"....

You want personal attacks? Try twitter. God the people on there are so vicious and they don't even know you!
Cyber Bullies, Danny. They're actually cowards behind a screen. Nothing but wimps in real life. Just hit the delete button as soon as the conversation gets ugly.
small minds will attack, Better minds will give constructive comments. Sometimes the latter can sting because with the arts reality can suck. I think the thing to remember is do it for yourself. That...
