Pretty good, Maurice, still writing

Maurice Vaughan

Cool, Billy Kwack. I'm back working on a project (short script). I'm feeling better from the cold.

Billy Kwack

Good news Maurice

Maurice Vaughan

Thanks. The writer/director I'm working with on the short script plans to film it soon.

Billy Kwack

Nice Maurice, I can't wait to see I hope

Craig D Griffiths

Good find Maurice. When people scream (exaggerating, I know) don’t put in direction, don’t inform performance, don’t discuss camera. All those things go into making a great screenplay. I think calling out a particular shot is hard to do without looking like a fool. But if you can do it… go for it.

My mantra is so whatever you need to tell the complete story. A story is made up of mood, tone, visuals etc.

Plus thinking of your screenplay as a film will translate to the page and then into the readers mind.

The video will be on YouTube, Billy Kwack. Maybe Stage 32 also.

Maurice Vaughan

I'm with you on that, Craig D Griffiths. Whatever you need to tell a complete story. A complete, entertaining story.

Billy Kwack

Yes Maurice

Howard Koor
