Should have a script review up soon. Can anyone recommend any good Fantasy scripts?
-
Super behind on TV pilots, but I've read a few and what the hell people? 69 pages for a network pilot with VERY TIGHT as your spacing settings? Who are you kidding?
-
Presumably they intend to cut after the initial draft the network reads, as an excuse to include ideas they could repurpose for later episodes, or to test out characters/plotlines that might be iffy. A TV writer friend told me a good length for a spec pilot is 65 pages. I've seen shooting scripts for recent hour-long dramas (regular episodes, not pilots) that are as short as 42.

I doubt i'll finish the 31,000 words necessary to "win" NaNoWriMo 2015, but it's actually been a lot of fun!

My buddy is the great grand son of the lyricist for The Wizard of Oz and is doing a movie about the music behind the film. Check out his kickstarter! https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/the-sound-of-oz

That is So. Cool. Fun fact: Yip Harburg recycled a lyric that went unused in the film but which survives in the stage production-- "Follow the rainbow over the stream; follow the fellow who follows his dream"-- for a song in "Finnian's Rainbow." This is the only instance I'm aware of in which a lyricist plagiarized himself.

It's a "slam your head into the keyboard day and pray that words come out" kind of a day.

Got to meet Phil Rosenthal tonight. I wish all producers were as nice as him...

My latest review is in. The Sellout by Daniel Lee. More reviews are on their way!
-
Script I didn't flip for - I Hope We Can Still Be Friends. Such an awesome premise that was poorly executed and a female character that felt waaaayyy too much like a dude.
