My mission is to have this script done by Christmas *fingers crossed*. I hit page 62 last night. So, that will probably put this script at about 80 pages… perfect, that would make me happy. I wanted this thing to be about 70 pages, so this will be just fine. I know I tend to edit long, so I really wanted a pretty short “feature” screenplay (most screenplays are about 90-120 pages long… 1 page = 1 minute on screen, is the rule).
I just finished a scene that has five people and action in it. I know this doesn’t seem like much, but I’m a dang novice when it comes to directing, and I have had a hard time getting my head around this scene. But, I like what I wrote and I could “see” most of it in my head, so we should be fine.
The trick is to get what’s in me head, on to the screen. Isn’t that always the problem?
