Screenwriting : Leftovers by Maurice Vaughan

Maurice Vaughan

Leftovers

Sometimes after outlining or writing scripts, writers have leftovers (ideas, characters, scenes, etc.). Save them for your other scripts and future scripts.

Debbie Croysdale

@Maurice Yes, I never delete good ideas. They don’t have to be re cycled into a different project entirely but can be re worked into Transmedia strands.Eg Novel, comic, novelettes. Prequel & Sequel scripts too.

Eric McKeever

Love this!

Maurice Vaughan

That's a fantastic idea, Debbie Croysdale! Thanks!

Maurice Vaughan

Thanks, Eric McKeever. Do you save leftovers?

Eric McKeever

Maurice Vaughan It's usually a character for me. I find they don't fit into the world of one script so they end up becoming the main character in another (Haha!)

Maurice Vaughan

I'll have to try that, Eric McKeever. Thanks!

Priya Mistry

Yes. I do the same. It helps a lot and saves the time as well.

Maurice Vaughan

It does save time, Priya Mistry. Thanks for pointing that out. I have a feature script outline template that I use. It saves time too.
