Hello!
I'm a filmer who also writes his own scripts yet I cant think of anything that would be good in a video.
so my question is how do you think for your scripts?
My first question is: what videos have you made before?
Where did that idea come from?
What is your way of getting ideas? What do you do? How much time do spend on it every time?
There are many roads leading to Rome, but not every road is for everyone.
I just get ideas from everything.
To become inspired one could live life to ingest impressions, opinions, views, sights, to get annoyed, to 'fall in love' with a person, event, building, tree, a dish, a drink, the feeling of the sea touching your feet, whatever, to wonder 'what if', to laugh, to discuss, to enrich the mind and your memories.
And you need to take the time to get into an open state of mind where you can linger and think about ideas without being distracted. The closed state of mind is the state of mind where you are occupied by the thing you have to do. It's a productive state of mind, but not a creative one
That's why C&C gets ideas when in lying in bed: the mind becomes calmer and gets space to wonder.
John Cleese explaines it very well:
