Learn the Science Behind Writing Screenplays That Keep Us on the Edge of Our Seats

Use the science of attention spans to make audiences itch for more, not twitch and snore.

[words-pics-flicks]

[F]ilm writers cut and cut again, ruthless in their desire to express the absolute maximum in the fewest possible words . . . screenwriters learn that economy is key, that brevity takes time, that excellence means perseverance.

FADE IN:

He opens the blind. The sun slowly beams it’s glaring light on the room. It glows on the plant who has a few dying leaves on it’s steam. It’s been a week already and the dead leaves did not retain it’s old green palor.https://twitter.com/FRANCISSASING/status/794394893112078336

Francis shakes his head. He’s been putting the plant outside on the sun for a few days and recent assumption is that it might be a tropical plant and that what requires of it is to be on a GREeNHOUSE. https://twitter.com/FRANCISSASING/status/794230107493646336

He considers finding a GREENHOUSE for this plant but in the meantime, He considered a second opinion on his leaving room where the plant used to be.

The HYPOTHESIS is that the maid who used to clean the house opens all the window in the morning and the PLANT just probably got his food from the sun on the living room to which now FRANCIS calls the SUN ROOM. He named it now the sun room since it’s the alternative of putting the plant outside to get some sun where he made an assumption that the plant came from a tropical country and that the plant would only thrive on warm climate. So he made an assumtion that if it’s place on the living room and open the windows (cause he never does) then it’s the same as a GREENHOUSE where they breed plants and flowers from different parts of the world; even tropical countries. https://twitter.com/FRANCISSASING/status/794403478617526272

CUT TO:

While waiting for some progress on his studies, he took time to read a book https://twitter.com/FRANCISSASING/status/794402019767259136 He did not have any money to buy a book to read lately so he read his book “WHERE PEACE WALKS IN A TIGHT ROPE” instead and promised if the PLANT survives, he would regularly water it everyday and never forget at all to water it everyday and put in the SUNROOM
