The Coli's Screenwriting/Filmmaking Thread [Share tips, etc]

[ghostwriterx]

Shot the first episode of a web series I wrote a couple of week ago, waiting on my wife to edit it and planning to shoot 4 more in April.

Working on a pilot script for a cable comedy I think would go if I got in the right room to pitch it.

For now I'm just having fun writing the thing

Have been thinking of a few ideas, but thinking of doing it as a comic instead of a screenplay. That way I can do everything myself, have complete control, have no budget considerations etc. It's an underrated storytelling medium.

I've posted in this thread numerous times but don't wanna go through it all again

Any people connected in this thread with say prod. Companies or those whose life revolves around reading scripts?

I've got a scriPt that's went through dozens of revisions and reviews which I really like alot. Would be cool if someone connected (or knows what's up) to look at it

A friend of mine manages writers. I can see if she's looking for stuff. Inbox me.

i honestly have hundreds of great ideas/jokes/scenes and literally no motivation to write them. i want to sit in a room where someone else writes, busts their ass, then just dictate lines to them to write and mooch money off of them. that's what i want to do. i don't want to be a writer, i want to improve your crap... but i don't want to actually re-write said crap, i want to order you to fix it yourself while giving me co-credit.

I'm working on a treatment now and a Pilot script so I know how you feel. But every time I get through a few pages I feel good about it.

BTW, those few pages take me forever lol. I can go a week or two without even opening FD thinking to myself "Why am I even doing this?", but when I start to feel better about myself I open up the script and spit out 2/3/4 pages.

Just finished my 132 page script... The first script I've ever broken through page 30 much less actually finish. I could cry right now.

Gonna let it breathe for a couple weeks then re-up for the 2nd draft.

 

[Conz]

anyone wanna read my other Sunny spec (did i even post the first one?) I never really showed this one but i read it the other day and it made me laugh a little.

132 page script? I can barely get to 10 pages sometimes. We got legit writers on here

im no pro reader, but i open screenplays all the time, and if that shyt is over ~102 pages, i find another one.
