Have you ever wondered how film budgets are allocated, particularly in the studio system, where expenditures of $100 to $200 million are the norm? Most film budgets are deliberately obtuse in natur...
writers
write that sentence, that dialogue, that scene that terrifies you
don’t delete shit, just move it to another document
have a “bits and pieces” document for all the odds and ends you can’t fit anywhere else
think of the color of a person’s eyes, imagine something reflected in them, now write that scene
fiction doesn’t have to be 100% accurate, don’t research yourself to boredom
i’m being serious there’s a thing called suspension of disbelief and it’s magical (yes that’s me making a joke)
write something that makes you cry
write something that makes you laugh
write something you can’t explain to other people
write something you won’t remember until you read it the next day
don’t read about the publishing industry until you really, really need to. all it will do is make you unbelievably tired
listen to music from open world RPG video games, you’re welcome
always take a small journal or some paper and a pen with you
write by hand in a journal every once in a while
put the ending of your story in the beginning and see what happens
listen to input from other people. yes you’re the writer, but they’re the reader and they want to help you make something spectacular
said is not dead dude like wtf
the thesaurus is shiny and lovely and a great resource but don’t let words get in the way of your story telling, you don’t need to write prose as poetry for it to be beautiful
just finish the draft first, worry about perfection after
yes, you do have talent
yes, you can do this. you already are
And I’ll love you in the only way I know how; with my whole heart, with every fiber of my being, with everything inside me.

Steve Kaire explains the Ultimate Blank is a brainstorming technique that requires the writer to fill in the blank space with a noun that hasn't been used before in another movie.
When you enter into this work of making movies, or writing them, or even watching them with more than casual attention, it’s possible to consider each movie a renewed image of the world.
Michael Almereyda (quoted in ’Personal Visions’ by Mario Falsetto)
You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should’ve behaved better.

There is no process that will spare you the pain of writing a draft.

Tough ass questions to ask yourself to zero in on who you are as a writer and help you pitch yourself and your work in a clear, concise way:
1. Why are you doing this?
2. If you could be doing anything else, what would it be?
3. Why aren’t you doing something else other than choosing a career in the creative arts?
4. What kind of stories do you tell?
5. What are you trying to say with your creative voice?
6. How do you see yourself? What do you do?
7. Who are you? As a creative artist? How do you pitch yourself? How do you pitch your work?
8. What makes you different?
9. How do you think your friends and colleagues would describe you, your work and your talent?
10. What do you think your first impression is? when someone meets you for the first time, what do they think when they walk away?
11. Why does someone want to work with you? Why does someone want to read what you have? Why do they want to listen to your pitch?
12. What kind of car are you?
13. What kind of animal are you?
14. Write your personal logline.
15. Write your own personal narrative – what is the story you’re pitching? How does it relate to you?
FYI this is tough exercise which I am still working on. You think you know who you are and what you are about, but writing it down almost feels too personal, violating (who are you to ask me what makes me special?!). But being able to confidently talk about who you are and what you do, the things that matter to you, and why you are the right person to write about something - is a skill worth investing in.

ScreenCraft's Ken Miyamoto offers ten inspiring and compelling reasons to pursue a career in screenwriting.
Jeff Lyons asks: If I were to ask you, “Do you know what a story is?” you would probably feel a little put out. After all, you’ve probably been writing stories for a long time, in fact, you might even make your living from writing stories and you're probably thinking ' Honestly, he’s asking me that? The cheek!'
We often overestimate what we can do in a day, and underestimate what we can achieve in a year.

[Y]ou must never be afraid of criticism; you either refute it or you put it to constructive use, that’s all.
Bertolt Brecht (via jamesgrantbrown)
I think that 50 percent of the narrative is in the audio/visual storytelling. I happened to think the screenplay is the basis of it all, but definitely doesn’t tell the movie. It tells the story, but doesn’t tell the whole movie. A lot of the narrative is in the details.

The statistics on gender inequality in Hollywood films have an impact on youth all over the world. Julie Gray challenges screenwriters to make a difference.
It takes crazy attention to detail if you want something to be good.
