Try not to direct the scenes too much. Nothing too fancy. Directing is a different job. Our job is to tell a story as visually as we can. It's a learning curve.

Quoted from DustinBowcot
It's a learning curve.


Yeah, I'm beginning to learn that, haha.

Thank you for the advice. I really appreciate it.

I've recently gone back to writing properly and found it's also a learning curve going back again. I spent five years screenwriting, three of those years spent perfecting it. Although good enough to pass fairly early on, it was perfection of the craft I sought.

I think a good piece of advice while learning this craft is to also write short stories and novels at the same time. Partly so you don't lose it and have to relearn, but also because this screenwriting game is bloody tough.

You can write the greatest script ever, and everyone can agree that it is, however, nobody wants to make it. So it ends up on a shelf, the greatest script ever, but that's all it is. A script without a filmmaker is nothing, not worth a penny.
