A blog devoted just to my scriptwriting. That’s all I’m going to blogging about here. |
Another Slight Delay with My Outlines When I was about to start the last paragraph for Act Three of my movie Outline, I suddenly realized that I was being unfair to all my main characters aka Chaad, Suuri, and Hoolle. What I mean by that is that I start and end each of my Acts with one of my main characters. I also did that with my Outlines. But there is only a one scene difference between the three of them. It’s not fair that the other two only have one paragraph per Act. So, I decided that they needed to be changed. That’s what I have done. And I like it even better than the last one. My Outlines now look more like the Treatment Acts. At least they do character-wise. Unfortunately, I didn’t realize what was going on until about five hours into my shift. As a result, I didn’t get too much written after I did my first letter of their character names for the Acts. I know that reads confusing. It is even for me. And I’m the one writing it. Since I am forced to handwrite my writing now, I use the first letter of the character’s name for each scene they are in for the Treatments and each Act paragraph. It wasn’t a total loss, though. True, I didn’t have too much time left on my shift yesterday to write too many paragraphs for my Outlines. But I did get three Acts done. That’s the Teaser Act one plus Act One and Act Two of my movie Outline. Aka a fourth of it done. I don’t know how long it will take to finish the new Outlines. But I don’t think that it will be more than an hour or two. Of course, that all depends on how bad it is at work today. If it’s like it was yesterday, it should take too long to do them. Once I do, I will start working on the paragraph Outlines. I don’t know how many paragraphs I will be able to do. But I’m hoping that I will quite a few. Whether it takes me an hour or two to finish my new single sentence Outlines or half of my shift, I will get as many paragraphs done as I can today.
