Via Spring, I see that National Novel Writing Month has a new sibling: Script Frenzy, writing a screenplay in a month.
Now, traditionally, a screenplay is measured in pages, with each page approximately translating to a minute of screen time, but in this, they're counting words—20,000 to be exact. However, they scanned a bunch of screenplays and found the average length was 20,000 words, so that's the target.
Sounds intriguing.
I guess it's time to check out The Nine Act Film Structure among other screenplay structures, and dust off the ol' Quick and Dirty B-Movie Plot Generator (which gives more plots than the one found on the Script Frenzy home page).
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
