Yeah...If you are looking for a good example of what will make people yell at you about camera angles, give it a read now.

Otherwise, give it a month or so.

TC uses camera angles as well so I think in this day and age writers need to use them more often to get points across... In Soapy on the first line of description, yeah I seen it.

I don't know if it gets the story across I can frogive them when reading something, people should be more forgiving when it comes to format... Older writers use a different format than most of us.

I have only seen one script on here that is so full of camera directions and character feelings in the description it's unreadable but the writer doesn't care so neither do I. Other than that person I think at least people are trying.

If you haven't said that I would of never seen that pointed out Wesley, I guess I like to have my vision and the camera done my way.  One of my downs as a writer I'll say.  I'm not too fond of my work on Soapy when Wet by the way.

You should have tried to make it longer or find a staff of people who'd work on the story with you... Could be what it needs.

Not a staff of writers, write your own series but get a staff of story writers so you can just write the scripts... Some writers are better at writing when given an idea to write instead of piecing together an idea from scratch.

It takes me awhile to develop an idea I can say "I want to write that" but when someone else comes along and says write this. It works a lot better.

If I read Soapy's pilot I could probably give you some episode ideas for future episodes, it's easier helping others with ideas than yourself sometimes which sounds weird but hey what can you do.
