Billy, tha...That's awesome, Sabina. Good luck!<br /><br />Billy, that's a sort of fantasy some writers have of what the industry is like, but in truth it's far more complicated than that.Emily Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02163221455899041141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-90112436714272268472011-06-18T11:22:26.890-07:002011-06-18T11:22:26.890-07:00Sabina and all,
Listen up.
Two kinds of screenwr...Sabina and all,<br /><br />Listen up.<br /><br />Two kinds of screenwriters on this competitive world -<br /><br />I think Joshua should one day direct. What is holding your back?<br /><br />UNO PERSONALITIES<br />They write their own script and they do not give a smelly rat ass care what Readers and the public think. They write to actually piss Readers off and make them bitter and jealous. They write to direct themselves, eventuallly. And they get financing from friends, families and high-paying full-time jobs and cool producers with expensive taste for the good life. They are strong and very dominating directors. Very Alpha personality. Like a PITBULL the size of a horse. And they have skins made out of IRON MAN metal. So they will crush most negative idiots out there without a vision.<br /><br />DUO<br />They write and most look like Woody Allen, Spike Lee and your typical Accountant looking-burn out pretending to be smart covservative complainers. They are not risk takers or brave souls in this BRAVE NEW WORLD. They like to hide in their room or living room and type cliche ridden scripts with Act 1,2,3 on the mark. That is it. They write for others and they usually are very humble and low personality types. They are not your typical take charge of situation kind of guys. And they do not want to direct and they will never direct. Usually they write tons of cookie cutting scripts. And speak with a low voice.<br /><br />BillyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25895692.post-12597653038839769452011-06-16T10:21:59.748-07:002011-06-16T10:21:59.748-07:00great quotes.

I made a film last year, and it was truly a great learning experience and helped me network, but it's not over. I still have a long way to go.<br /><br />I haven't found an agent yet, but I don't care anymore. I'm doing it all myself.Sabina E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14679639206346030919noreply@blogger.com
