Only My Scriptwriting

Almost Finished Teaser Act

Almost Finished Teaser Act

Only two single numeric paragraphs away from finishing the Teaser Act for Part One of my Water Wars scriptwriting project aka the Movie Introduction of my Scene Outline. I did a total of twenty-five single paragraphs earlier today at work. Eighteen of them were numeric scene paragraphs and seven were Establishing Shots.

Yes, I know I have written that I usually have two Establishing Shots to begin each Act. That is still true most of the time, but it’s not a given. There will be times when there will be more. especially, in this two-part Movie Introduction. Maybe not quite as many as Part One or this Teaser Act, but there will probably be more than two Establishing Shots in these Scene Outlines.

How did I get so many single paragraphs written in one day at work? I’m not sure how I did it. Maybe it’s because I have written this Outline a million times. Well, it hasn’t been quite that many, but I’m probably not too far off, though. I have written it quite a few times.

Will I get that many or more written tomorrow. I hope that I do, but that’s a hard question to answer. Sometimes I do get more written on a Friday, and sometimes I don’t. Usually, I do get a few more written on Fridays, but it’s not always. It could go either way. A lot of how much writing I get done depends a lot on how I’m feeling. I’m not feeling too bad at the moment.

I’m not feeling too well either. The inside of my upper left leg is hurting me really bad right now. It’s hard for me to concentrate on this blog entry. If this keeps up at work, I may not get as much writing done as I would like to get done. Still may be able to get fifteen to twenty single paragraphs written, but I’m not even going to count on that many until it happens.

I should be able to get ten to fifteen single numeric paragraphs written tomorrow at work. Plus, all the Establishing Shots for those numeric paragraphs. So, I could get another fifteen to twenty single paragraphs written tomorrow morning. Maybe even more than that depending on how many Establishing Shots I have.

Don’t know for sure or not, but I think I will probably have at least six Establishing Shots in the next four Acts. It may be in the next five Acts too. After all, these Acts will be broken up into three different time zones. One for Chaad, Suuri, and Hoolle. Another one for Reen, and a third one for Voonc and Kiirra. The time of day will be the same, but the times will be different.

All three are in the same vertical time zone. It’s the specific hour of the time that’s the difference. That won’t be true with the television series. Not even for Part Two of this Movie Introduction, but it is for Part One. Part Two isn’t all that much different. Instead of three, there will be only two.
