Hi Kirsti, what were your main concerns regarding using twitter for Hurst
movie? #scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:05 pm
@robpratten: It would be
nice to know how many scriptwriters are interested in venturing beyond the page
into #transmedia #scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:05 pm
@AlexisNiki: @Pale_Jewel I'm
looking forward to hearing both of your insights as I'm developing MY first
#transmedia story. @robpratten #scriptchat

think how difficult it was to load all her tweets on one page for an archive
site. It should be simple in theory. #scriptchat

@AlexisNiki: @robpratten ME!
I'm totally ready to explore. #scriptchat

Would you be able to define #transmedia? Cross-platforms but how does it work?
#scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:07 pm
@authorViviAnna: @robpratten
sorry for my ignorance, but what is #transmedia #scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:07 pm
@robpratten: @AlexisNiki my
first insight would be you need a good story however you plan to tell it -
movie, book, twitter etc. #scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:07 pm
@momentsoffilm: @Mina_Zaher
A short film I'm producing #clowningaroundfilm may have some #transmedia
elements. Aside from that I'm on the fence. #scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:07 pm
@Pale_Jewel: @BerryScripts
My main concerns were that people wouldn't get it & no one would be
interested lol #scriptchat

#scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:08 pm
@RolandMooreTV: As a way to
make people aware of another project, transmedia looks interesting. Do you hope
it'll draw people to see Hurst? #Scriptchat
July 10, 2011, 7:08 pm
@robpratten: @Mina_Zaher
"transmedia storytelling" is telling a story across multiple
platforms - books, websites, videos, images... #scriptchat

you talk a little about who's involved in the dev. process & the new
writer's role? #scriptchat -5:01 PM Jul 10th, 2011
zacsanford2 So for those who are already here? Has anyone
optioned/sold a script and then gone through the development process? #scriptchat

It's called development he'll for a reason! Lol #Scriptchat

zacsanford2 @sethruffer During the development process
usually the ProdCo and their development staff is in on the mix. #scriptchat

NaimaHazelton Hi everyone. Happy to hear about development
from @zacsandford2
- to join us at# #scriptchat -5:02 PM Jul 10th,
zacsanford2 @sethruffer As talent gets attached, most
directors and bigger actors will want to give some thoughts, so they are in the

zacsanford2 @Ghop56 Development process can be one draft
to MANY drafts. No development process is ever the same. #scriptchat
-5:03 PM Jul 10th, 2011
sethruffer OK-thanks! So it's conceivable (perhaps even
likely?) that at development's inception, a director might not yet be involved?

stage only to be dropped? #scriptchat -5:04 PM Jul 10th, 2011
zacsanford2 @sethruffer Usually the ProdCo will go through
development before ever going out to any talent. Sometimes it is the reverse. #scriptchat

it true that you can be in development without having an option? The sneaky way

July 11, 2011, 12:07 am
@zacsanford2: So when we
option a script (even from a new writer) the development process usually begins
right away. Option = ticking clock. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:07 am
@sethruffer: @andrealmcneill
- I was reading somewhere the other day that "no fee" options are
becoming more prominent, too. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:08 am
@zacsanford2:
@andrealmcneill Yes, a lot of ProdCos will give one set of development notes
before optioning to see if a writer can take notes. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:08 am
@zacsanford2: @Ghop56 So
many things can make us give up on the project. Most common is a writer who
isn't a team player. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:09 am
@Jamie_LD: @zacsanford2 What
is the average option time? #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:09 am
@GCGeek: @zacsanford2 Does
the writer have to deal with conflicting notes during this process or are they
streamlined or consistent? #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:09 am
@zacsanford2: So once we
option or decide to work on a script, we either give very broad notes or we
give very detailed notes. #scriptchat

@LindaFausnet: @jeannevb how
do I get to #scriptchat? I can't seem to find it
July 11, 2011, 12:10 am
@eyeda: What is the average
amount of reworking that a typical script will go through from the start of
devel to the screen? #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:10 am
@TheWriteScript: There's a
difference between a script being "perfect to submit" and ready to
shoot, i.e., why development process needed. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:10 am
@zacsanford2: The more
detailed the notes are given, especially when it gets into page notes over
broad, you are closer to being finished. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:10 am
@lisamondello: @zacsanford2
Is the writer in on meetings about development or just given notes to make
changes after the fact?n #scriptchat

typically two option extension periods. #scriptchat

@Ghop56: @sethruffer No Fee
Options? Oh dear #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:10 am
@zacsanford2: @GCGeek We
give streamlined notes. When we develop we have a meeting just on your project
and one person will present the notes. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:11 am
@Leemanrhymes: @zacsanford2
Can a writer do anything to help speed up development? #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:11 am
@zacsanford2: @GCGeek That
isn't the case everywhere. And sometimes in a meeting w/writer conflicting
notes can pop up. #scriptchat

for $5K. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:13 am
@andrealmcneill: $100? Are
you serious? $100 to option a non produced writer? Really? #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:13 am
@zacsanford2: But the
development process is a tricky one. Sometimes a note doesn't make sense.
That's why you have to look deeper at it. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:13 am
@bourbonroad: @sethruffer
Yep. "no fee" options, aka "dollar options" seem to be more
and more prevalent in the industry. #scriptchat
July 11, 2011, 12:13 am
@sethruffer: @zacsanford
@Ghop56 I think for a new writer (like moi) the exposure to the process is more
important than the fee for an option #scriptchat
