If you don't know how to write a script, why don't you figure that out first and then move back when you are prepared? Knowing that the cost of living is much more out there. Seems
like rushing out there wouldn't be smart.


Its obvious from here you can be a great fiction writer :troll:

But my question is was being a scriptwriter your dream prior to your homeboy saying he liked your ideas? :ld:

Download celtx to have a script producing program(works for both film and tv)
Tameri Guide for Writers: Screenplay Formats - for film
How to Format a TV Script | Script Frenzy - for tv

I'm sure you don't have to move to LA to get into Film. If you willing to grind, I'm willing to bet you can find actors/directors/videographers in the DFW who may work with your films. Plus, you can market your films/shows on the internet and film festivals. Really think about what you wanna do, then once you come with your script, hit up some Film schools; festivals, comedy clubs, acting/film workshops, basically any place you can find people to aid you.
