Me No Woody Allen
Ok i've seen several blogs where people complain. That's an understatement. Basically, people vent their frustrations through blogs, and many do it at the expense of offending others, intentionally or not. Many blogs come to mind, including one where a person literally jazz-ed up her name. But i must highlight that it is of no intention of mine to offend anyone here, nor is it related to that jazzy person ; ) Read with an open mind.
Anywhoosintheloo.... the last day of Year 2 has passed, and i can sum it up with just 1 word - Script. Writer. Ok technically it's one word divided into two.
When i think of scripts, Year 1's short film comes to mind. Boy was that a hoot. Don't know how much time I spent writing the script, but the best part was... Take a moment... Take another moment...... Take a third moment......... Ready?... Here goes... the fabulous cast didn't even read the script! No one did, at least not willingly. I'm not kidding the actors only looked at the script 2 minutes before filming every scene. It was depressing, I was the only idiot with the script... and i didn't act! Up to this day, i wonder how in the world any of them worked without knowing how the story progresses. And that was easily the lousiest mix of people i ever worked with.
Maybe that's why i have this weird phobia of writing scripts now; i fear people won't read and it'll just be a waste. I don't really mind if they think it's bad, but for god's sake read it. Aretha Franklin says, r-e-s-p-e-c-t and i sing along those lines literally.
As for year 2, I dunno but it seems like people think that my sole purpose in life is to write scripts and then die... and wake up when another script is needed, and die again. Like... i'm not great at it... it's just about writing really - doesn't take a rocket scientist. I think people don't wanna do it coz it takes effort... I'm rolling my eyes as i'm typing this... Still rolling... and rolling. Because seriously, dudes and lasses, it boils down to pure laziness. Just think, why don't people come to me to edit reports? - coz it doesn't take much effort... it's definitely easier than writing a script. Urgh.
All you need to do is use the brain to generate ideas to progress your script. I know for fact - ideas are hard to come by, especially during projects. They say they're not creative enough, i still say it's laziness.
Yes, i whine when i have to stay up to write a script which people will use the next morning, after they had a good night's rest. Sure, it's a give and take situation and i give sometimes - another understatement - coz writing scripts is usually the bonus work.
But i still dunno where that 'writing scripts give me an orgasm!' impression comes from. But pleaasssee people, don't ask me every single time a script is needed - it is for one, an insult to my abilities. It also irks me so much coz i'm not asked because i'm fabulous at it, but it's mostly driven by the lack of initiative to do it yourself. Not to mention i'm sick of scripts for the moment, already one whole module is called 'Scriptwriting'. Hello? -Doink-
That said, working on the MPP script is delightful - its liberating to write a script for the ever so evil Wizard of Arse Effin, and the clueless Fairy God Damned.
Fairy God Damned said, "Effin... If assholes need a mascot, you'd fit perfectly."
The above was cut from the Reelity script for being repugnant.
