Scriptwriting newbie says hello

Hi, folx, Good to see everyone. I haven't been too active here but I must try as this is a career pivot for me. I have produced (put it all together, not just funding)  web/VR based works and documentaries, in other media lives, but I am now full of story/script ideas for TV and content concepts for film/tv releases. Good to see you all and happy to chat more with anyone interested in respectful collaborations.

Web/VR. That's really cool, Em Perera. Was it like a full VR web-series?

Em Perera

hey thanks. I meant, I produced a VR story experience and a few web based interactive art works :) Not for TV, just as my practice.

You're welcome, Em Perera. Oh ok. That's still really cool. I wrote two VR short scripts and writing them was so different than writing my other scripts.

Em Perera Hi Em, VR stories is not something I’ve ventured into on the film side, but I started to develop a transmedia approach with my novel (0w1:believe) and it included a soundtrack to the book on Spotify. I had other concepts for this, but ran out of money! Any tips?

Em Perera

This is a complex topic - choosing trans media elements depends on the engagement strategy you wish for your work. As for VR, I have designed spatial narratives. However, like you would for any space, a narrative can be crafted to meet the objective: a more traditionally designed comic style VR work can use traditional styles, like some games do. In many ways, it is like writing dialog for a short film.
