Script and Music
One thing that I am trying is to work on some music for the film while I write. As I have been working on revisions I have been deciding where musical themes and a score should be placed. I added in a new scene where the emotional and visual connection is very strong, I think that it will be the pivitol scene in the film.
In previous versions of the script I just had the characters talking about an event but got very bored with the lengthy dialogue scenes and wanted to the film to reflect more of the protagonists attitude and to show things instead of say it. I ended up removing most of the dialogue about the event and am choosing to show bits of it as the characters develope and are revealed. I think it is adding a scenes of mystery to the story and characters as well as shows the story rather than saying it. I once heard someone say that films are visual mediums and books are written mediums so if you are making a film, show it don't say it. I think there is a time and place to have lengthy dialogue scenes - Quinten Tarentino is a prime example - but there is also a time and place to let the picture say everything. As the saying goes a pictures tells a thousand words.
I am looking to have the next draft done by the end of this week.
Also, the Bounty Store will be open soon. It will have products that you can purchase which will help in the funding of the film.
