    YouTube Let's Plays?

    Acually never played EVE. Might start, but I don't have the money for a subscription service or anything. Had to let my Xbox Live Gold run out this year... :( So, for now, it's just free games. And as far as not having time, I have class every day from 9-5, including saturday, and no place...

    YouTube Let's Plays?

    I'm not so much a filmmaker as an editor. I don't really create anything for any other reason than to have footage to edit. But being in film school means everything I shoot is for class, and I have no time to do extracurricular at a rate that would be fast enough for me to put out shorts like I...

    First effort at a TV show

    I very much like the suggestions richy made concerning the contraceptive conversation. I, too, thought it was something I'd just understand when read aloud, and was only convoluted in a written context. But I have to say, calling Nick a prophylactic is especially funny to me, as well as the line...

    First effort at a TV show

    No worries about bumpage, my friend. Reading scripts is just as glamorous as it sounds. Especially when I'm in the middle of my boring documentary 1 class... Starting my read now! **EDIT** I'm back! Episode One: This one felt very much the same as the last time I read it, but slightly fuller...

    First effort at a TV show

    Hello there! First off, let me say that as an American reading a Brit's writing, there are probably a few of the nuances I won't understand right off. However, I will say I watch a somewhat significant amount of British television for an American, so I think I understand the feel of the show...

    How do YOU wirte your shooting scripts

    @Trueindie, I agree about that. I just get an idea stuck in my head, and I don't want to compromise on how the feel of a scene should be once it's been written, and I've given all the detail. The extra detail is a part of why the dialogue is then written the way it is, and I feel like the two...

    How do YOU wirte your shooting scripts

    I've been told by instructors at film school, and fellow students that on scripts I've written, I give way too much explanation as to what the set looks like, and what shots should look like. I've also been told that I give just the right amount. I'm wondering about this as well. I personally...

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    That's exactly what I need. Thank you so much! The idea of showing how it used to be with throwaway characters, versus how it is now with the main characters is a great way to do it.

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    @mlesemann Do you have any suggestions for an alternative scene, or an alternative purpose it could be used for instead? I've been looking at this project and nothing else for about a week straight and I feel like my brain is burned out on this particular subject.

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    I personally feel that the entire scene is unnecessary because the scene right after it establishes the main characters, and then shows them going through the exact same situation, only they don't fight back and are sent to the prison.

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    The provoking is not anywhere in the dialogue. The scene as it sits is two cops talking. They receive a call on the radio, report to the scene of the crime, and ask to check the offender's blood to determine if he is part of the fictional minority, and he attacks because he knows they'll take...

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    It opens with throwaway characters to illustrate a racism between two groups of people in the world. The prejudiced character is killed in the opening scene after he attacks two police officers who purposely provoked him into a violent response. The scene was supposed to invoke a sense of the...

    Cold Opens - How much Exposition is enough?

    So hey guys, this is my first post on the forums but I had a question. I'm currently working with a group of people on making a TV show that will be crossing large desks in nice offices in less than two weeks. I've been given the opportunity to take the pilot and fix the terrible cold open it...
