A Script Baby is Born…

The first draft script is done; it’s a little long, by about 40 pages. So I can say I have more than enough material to condense to about 20 pages. However I’m thinking I will cut and rewrite as much as possible and leave it as long as it needs to be, I’m not fix on a 20 min film, so 30-35 min is a possibility, as the story needs room to breathe.

I’m very happy with many of the scenes, the conflict between the characters is spot on, other will need a bit of work, but the core of them is set up. I cannot wait to get to read-through’s as I want to hear it read properly by actors. As you can guess I’m chuffed.

Tomorrow is another long day, as I’ll be chopping chunks of script out, and sacrificing parts of the baby. But in the end product should be a lean and concise beast, with the pep and zing of a ripping yarn.

I also need to start thinking about the directors note book, though Lydia will probably start that, then we will chew the fat over each scene taking it to pieces and rebuilding it from the ground up.

I have had lots of good feedback from the crew, that have helped me tighten the story, and there is still a long way to go so I hope they keep good solid feedback all the way through. So thanks, Vaia Ikonomou, Chantal Lee-Gan, Mark Berge, Dale Jordan Johnson and William Charles.
