First day as a screen writer.


I have a very short time to write this script so I'm trying to do a minimum of 3 pages a night. I wrote the first scene last night, gratuitous breast shots and all.

Six pages! Hoo-ah!

I expect things will go like this until I hit that long second act. That's when the real heavy-lifting begins.

Onward.

Go, go, go!

Gratuitous breast shots in the opening?

I think you should go scantilly clad. I've always been told a partially clothed woman is more appealing than a naked one.

Not that I would know.

sandra,

it was a specific request from the producer.

It's all about establishing a mood.

Establishing mood? Sounds so...literary. Tell me it ain't so, Dave. Tell me it ain't so.

Well, knowing David, I'm sure he wouldn't dream of putting a gratuitous boob shot in a movie if it weren't for contractual obligations. I mean, the man's got standards, after all.

Now a hot karl, well, that's something else.

Stephen,

Between you and David, I feel like I'm finally taking sex ed. Someone really should start a sex ed blog. I bet that would be popular.
