better #scriptchat

@SiFoulaReel: @Sandy_Nicholson Never! I must have good,
appropriate music when I write! I can't write in silence. Be screwed without
music. #scriptchat

up early, ride 2 work, write for 1.5hrs, shower, be sitting at desk at 9am.

@Sandy_Nicholson: @SiFoulaReel If the music is too good I
listen to it! No, I need rubbish! #scriptchat
June 10, 2012, 7:08 pm
@EvaKnoet: #scriptchat I do that too @robinbellwriter the
music has to fit the scene and film you're working on otherwise it doesn't
really work
June 10, 2012, 7:08 pm
@robinbellwriter: #scriptchat current script involves me
listening to new sun kil moon album among the leaves. Keeps me writing for 73

music, do you all have playlists? @robinbellwriter #scriptchat

other times an album seems to fit already #scriptchat

@teenierussell: RT @EvaKnoet: #scriptchat I do that too
@robinbellwriter the music has to fit the scene and film you're working on
otherwise it doesn't really work
June 10, 2012, 7:10 pm
@Leytonrocks: #scriptchat I'm trying to avoid pre writing
routines before I start writing ... These self imposed rules create reasons not
to write
June 10, 2012, 7:10 pm
@EvaKnoet: #scriptchat it depends how focussed I am, less
focus more music and yes to playlists @teenierussell

June 10, 2012, 7:12 pm
@ijoda07: @SiFoulaReel Repeatitive works for me. Though not
much. If music is too "busy" gets distracting. Also can't listen to
radio. #scriptchat

for the character moods, at specific points in the story. Sometimes it's
ironic. #scriptchat

better there. #scriptchat
