Finish Your Damn Script Video

3/17/2018

0 Comments

 

I created this video as part of a FREE 6 Video Series called 

Finish your damn script in 2018 and stop talking about it
----------

OR

Producers don't produce good ideas, they produce good scripts that are ready for production
----------


So how are you going to move from good ideas and dreams to the reality of your film premiering at Sundance? 

How are you going to move from dreaming about your play opening Off broadway to actually getting an offer from a theatre and a contract waiting for your signature.  

You can't get to the Oscars or Broadway on hopes, wishes and dreams alone.  You need a product and that product is a kickass well-written story.
==========

Now how are you going to get there?
----------

That's what I want to talk about. As SimonSays Entertainment's Director of Development, I spend my time looking for scripts that are ready for production.  But instead, I spend the lion's share of my time fielding questions about why someone can't get a production-ready script done, so instead they send me drafts masquerading as production-ready scripts.


That's bullhooey and the biggest way filmmakers and writers get in their own way.

No one can 
see,
fall
in love with, 
produce &
pay you for your story

until they see a product that's ready to be produced.  


That's what I talk about in this 6 video series.  And if you're interested in having this series mailed directly to your inbox every three days, then click HERE.


HERE ARE THE BIG 3 THAT I COVER IN THE FIRST 2 VIDEOS: 

1. Use the morning pages to write every day...

2. Write every day a little bit every day instead of  hoping to write for 5 hours once a week or once a month....u'll write more in the long term

3. How find a job that creates income and creates free time to write


Let's. Do. This.

Love, Light & Power, 

April & TheWritersRoom Team

P.S.  This is a limited time offer, so act fast...

    is a place to find resources for playwrights & screenwriters.

    So I created this space for people who are actually writing as a practice, not just talking about it or dreaming about it, but are actually doing some badassery on the regular...

    meaning write every day...rain, shine, work, sleep, drunk, too tired, too many kids, blah blah...


    BadAssWriters just fucking write...
