Only My Scriptwriting

Done But Not Done Again

Done But Not Done Again

I have done it. I have finished writing the two-part Story Outline for the Movie Introduction for my DeathBringers anthology television series. Unfortunately, it has taken me almost the whole day to finish it because of what my brother and I had to do today. It was a little more than I thought we needed to accomplish today.

It’s a good thing I finished it today. I doubt I will have time to work on it tomorrow before I return to work at eleven PM WDC time. I usually don’t have time to work on my scriptwriting projects because I spend most Fridays preparing to return to work.

I wanted to start working on the Scene Outlines for this Movie Introduction today. I knew I wouldn’t get more than a few paragraphs written on the Part One Teaser Act. I didn’t think I would get to these Scene Outlines today, but I hoped I would. After all, the sooner I get to these Scene Outlines, the better. Unfortunately, I didn’t get them started.

I have about one hundred and sixty-two paragraphs to write for each part of this Movie Introduction. That includes one hundred and fifty numeric scene numbers and twelve Establishing Shots. There could be a few more Establishing Shots than twelve, but I don’t think there will be.

I won’t be able to return to working on this project until Monday. I could work on it when I return to work for the next three days, but I won’t. I will return to my Water Wars scriptwriting project tomorrow evening and this weekend. I want to get the Scene Outlines written for this project as soon as possible so that I can start writing these scripts.

Technically, I am done with these Story Outlines, but I have been thinking about this for quite a while now. Long before I even started working on this project. What am I writing about? It’s capitalization for words. I have been doing that, and I don’t think I will.

So far, I have capitalized the words in my paragraph’s Outlines. At first, it was for sound effects. Then, it went beyond that to include action. I will probably keep the sound effects, but I probably won’t keep the action ones like KILL, KILLED, DDESTROY, DESTROYED, etc. I will need to do a lot of rewriting if I don’t keep them.

The rewriting shouldn’t be too hard, but I do have three scriptwriting projects to complete. I’m working on two of them right now, and the third one shouldn’t be a problem either. However, they still all need to be done. I haven’t decided when I will do them, though.
