That sounds a lot of fun! I am a fiction writer more predominately, but I have always wanted to learn to write scripts. I am on these forums to learn how to make a movie, more than anything, but I would be more than happy to work with you for a good story. My fiction writing has lead me to a...

I've had a look at that description, and it looks perfect. Do you have any recommendations for learning about being a line producer? Any information would be great!

Thank you very much, Sweetie. I cannot tell you how helpful this information is. I have been looking at all of the information you have given, and look forward to getting into it over the weekend. Thanks again!

Ahhh, that makes sense. Thank you for explaining these. It is a very small production indeed. I believe that yes, I will be filling in as the glue that binds. The other two (director and writer) won't be stuck in their roles - ie, they'll help when I need it - but I believe that I have the...

Rewatchability is another way that movies can be good. Movies like X-Men: Days of Future Past and Interstellar are both ones that I love; perhaps some of my favourites. But they are just so dense that I'm unsure when I will watch either again. Movies like Pacific Rim or X-Men: First Class, or...

The expansive opening action scene can be great, even if it doesn't relate back to the plot exactly. Look at True Lies - there was a whole story (beginning, middle, end) before the real plot started. The key thing is the characteristic moment. This part of the Wordplay take on Character Arcs was...
