Scriptchat: filmmaker

TOPIC: From Script to Screen with EURO guest Samuel Doreen Leichty and USA guest Gary King.

Most often the best learning isn’t in a book, but in the minds of the creatives who have walked the walk. Tonight is no exception. Samuel Dore @Bursteardrum and Gary King @grking generously shared with us their experiences and advice on bringing words on a page to life on the screen. Before (or after) reading the transcript, check out the videos Gary made, demonstrating the process. Enjoy! @jeannevb

7:09 pm zaraaltair: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I start with the inital concept or a single scene then develop the script, I don't really choose themes or genres #scriptchat

7:09 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie Up until Chasing Cotton Clouds I produced my own films but when I got a producer for CCC it was a godsend 1/1 #scriptchat

7:09 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum Some writers get upset by director's interpretation of their script. What do u think abt script to screen process? #scriptchat

7:13 pm mina_zaher: @WYIFN Welcome! We've got a From Script to Screen discussion happening tonight. Have you got any thoughts/questions? #scriptchat

7:14 pm mina_zaher: TY! RT @zaraaltair: Quick break from work. If you are not already there join #scriptchat. OK back to day job.

7:15 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I find the finished film never matches the final script, you have to give or take especially during rehearsals 1/1 #scriptchat

7:15 pm WYIFN: RT @mina_zaher: @WYIFN Welcome! We've got a From Script to Screen discussion happening tonight. Have you got any thoughts/questions? #scriptchat

7:16 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I believe in adjusting the script through rehearsal as its important the actors are comforable with the dialogue 1/2 #scriptchat

7:16 pm Bang2write: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I find the finished film never matches the final script, you have to give or take especially during rehearsals 1/1 #scriptchat

7:16 pm Bang2write: Lurking in #scriptchat

7:17 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writers write one thing, actors interpret the words into another thing so the writers create the template 1/3 #scriptchat

7:17 pm sweettweenie: RT@Bursteardrum I believe in adjusting the script through rehearsal as its important the actors are comforable with the dialogue #scriptchat

7:17 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I believe in adjusting the script through rehearsal as its important the actors are comforable with the dialogue 1/2 #scriptchat

7:17 pm TaroJ: #scriptchat when making changes is that purely dialogue or do you actually take the story in a different direction?

7:17 pm Bang2write: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I believe in adjusting the script through rehearsal as its important the actors are comforable with the dialogue 1/2 #scriptchat

7:18 pm WestgarthEnt: I'm recording it & will make it available on CD for you at $29.95, titled "Character Arc And Need". Order at info@wsai.net #ScriptChat

7:18 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writers write one thing, actors interpret the words into another thing so the writers create the template 1/3 #scriptchat

7:18 pm Bursteardrum: @TaroJ Bit of both really although I find it's the dialogue that changes. It's down to how the actors see their characters 1/1 #scriptchat

7:19 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum What can writers do to get their vision onto the screen? Write clearer description? Or is it out of their hands? #scriptchat

7:19 pm sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum have you had to make significant changes to a script due to budget constraints? #scriptchat

7:19 pm Bursteardrum: @TaroJ So it depends on whether the characters would say particular lines or words. The same goes for action too 1/2 #scriptchat

7:20 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I mentioned before writers create the template and they should try and let the film crew interpret it themselves 1/1 #scriptchat

7:20 pm mina_zaher: Btw, have you guys watched @Bursteardrum's 'Chasing Cotton Clouds'? Here it is: http://bit.ly/gkKg2C #scriptchat

7:20 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I don't like it when writers add camera set ups, that sort of thing, I sound a bit arrogant here but... 1/2 #scriptchat

7:21 pm kirstyes: @Bang2write #scriptchat I've used lulu, they are very good and pretty easy to use.

7:21 pm zaraaltair: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writers write one thing, actors interpret the words into another thing so the writers create the template 1/3 #scriptchat

7:21 pm sweettweenie: @dodgyjammer all scratched, hello #scriptchat

7:21 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher If writers add descriptions and so forth then they should go and make it themselves! 1/3 #scriptchat

7:22 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher It's like having a blank canvas to work with in some respects 1/4 #scriptchat

7:23 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie I can't remember if I've had to do that but I usually shoot the whole script then cut entire scenes out #scriptchat

7:23 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum Some directors believe you can't write and direct the same project. Do you believe this? Why? #scriptchat

7:23 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie One of the joys of being a low budget film maker is you can afford to take risks #scriptchat

7:24 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie One of the joys of being a low budget film maker is you can afford to take risks #scriptchat

7:24 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writing & directing just means you know exactly what you want from your film that's all 1/1 #scriptchat

7:25 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher It becomes more of your film, in fact I hate 'A film by...' credits by directors who only just directed, thats wrong #scriptchat

7:25 pm robertshutter: RT @FurryWolfen 4 days left to hit our $500 goal. Gonna go sacrifice more goats http://kck.st/gYRQ0o #scriptchat #filmmaking: 4 days ...

7:26 pm zaraaltair: RT @Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie One of the joys of being a low budget film maker is you can afford to take risks #scriptchat

7:26 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher It's like the director is taking credit for everything when film making is a totally collaborating process #scriptchat

7:26 pm TaroJ: #scriptchat is directing someone else's script a very different experience for you, less personal?

7:26 pm sweettweenie: do you have a preferred DOP who shares your vision or do you use different people? #scriptchat

7:26 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum Tht's a refresing outlook. So process of interpretation isn't so crucial re getting the story/characters across? #scriptchat

7:27 pm FurryWolfen: @Bursteardrum It's fine you feel that way. As a writer, I hate adding camera set ups because that simply takes forever. #scriptchat

7:27 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Thats what I love about film making, you work with the best camerapeople / editors / actors / producers #scriptchat

7:27 pm mina_zaher: Halfway through Euro #Scriptchat and I've asked my questions. What do you want to know about From Script to Screen? Ask @Bursteardrum now!

7:28 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie I choose DoPs according to who I know is out there really, I like to use different DoPs, its down to the script #scriptchat

7:29 pm sweettweenie: RT @Bursteardrum I choose DoPs according to who I know is out there really, I like to use different DoPs, its down to the script #scriptchat

7:29 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Sorry can you re-phrase that question?! #scriptchat

7:30 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie Each film I make is different from each other so each DoP should be different really #scriptchat

7:30 pm FurryWolfen: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writing & directing just means you know exactly what you want from your film that's all 1/1 #scriptchat

7:30 pm WestgarthEnt: RT @Bursteardrum If writers add descriptions & so forth they should go & make it themselves! --> Architects don't build houses. #ScriptChat

7:30 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum I had a convo w/ a director recently who said a writer writes and a director interprets what's on the page. #scriptchat

7:31 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie Although having the same DoP means the shoots are smoother & you don't have to start all over again on each film #scriptchat

7:31 pm TaroJ: RT @mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum I had a convo w/ a director recently who said a writer writes and a director interprets what's on the page. #scriptchat

7:31 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum The point was to keep the different crafts separate. i.e. not to do both jobs. #scriptchat

7:32 pm Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt Fair point! #scriptchat

7:32 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher That's pretty much it #scriptchat

7:33 pm Perczynski: @bursteardrum @mina_zaher What kind of stories.... Sorry for spelling bad... #scriptchat

7:33 pm sandrabendelow: RT @AmberKnipe: Deva Shorts - @ChesterPerforms is seeking submissions of both new and existing short films http://bit.ly/e5N6RF. #scriptchat

7:33 pm mina_zaher: I sense a few lurkers tonight .... Hope you guys are getting an interesting perspective on how a director reads a script. :) #scriptchat

7:35 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum So esp for new writers, do you recommend focusing on one craft? #scriptchat

7:35 pm rosieclaverton: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher I find the finished film never matches the final script, you have to give or take especially during rehearsals 1/1 #scriptchat

7:35 pm rosieclaverton: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher Writers write one thing, actors interpret the words into another thing so the writers create the template 1/3 #scriptchat

7:35 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher It happens often when a director makes a writer's script into their own vision whether the writer likes it or not #scriptchat

7:35 pm thewritertype: @Bursteardrum Sam, in Chasing Cotton Clouds did you incorporate the animation sequences into the script like regular FX? #scriptchat

7:35 pm sweettweenie: RT @mina_zaher I had a convo w/ a director recently who said a writer writes and a director interprets whats on the page #scriptchat

7:36 pm Bursteardrum: @Perczynski @mina_zaher No worries! #scriptchat

7:36 pm grking: RT @mina_zaher: I sense a few lurkers tonight .... Hope you guys are getting an interesting perspective on how a director reads a script. :) #scriptchat

7:36 pm FurryWolfen: @Bursteardrum How do we know when we've described a scene enough? We don't want to insult the director's intelligence #scriptchat

7:36 pm Bursteardrum: @thewritertype As I wrote the script it meant I could be specific about the old school animation that was vital 1/1 #scriptchat

7:36 pm mina_zaher: *smiles* RT @MawScrawl: @Mina_Zaher Taking plenty of notes. #scriptchat

7:37 pm rosieclaverton: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher It becomes more of your film, in fact I hate 'A film by...' credits by directors who only just directed, thats wrong #scriptchat

7:37 pm Bursteardrum: @thewritertype The animation was from a 11-year old's mind which meant it had to be home made / playful 1/2 #scriptchat

7:37 pm mina_zaher: RT @FurryWolfen: @Bursteardrum How do we know when we've described a scene enough? We don't want to insult the director's intelligence #scriptchat

7:38 pm mina_zaher: RT @thewritertype: @Bursteardrum Sam, in Chasing Cotton Clouds did you incorporate the animation sequences into the script like regular FX? #scriptchat

7:38 pm Bursteardrum: @thewritertype So having really good / polished CGI scenes wouldn't work at all and I'm a child of the 80's! 1/3 #scriptchat

7:39 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen By keeping the scene / character / atmosphere descriptions limited to one sentence works for me 1/1 #scriptchat

7:39 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen It means I can explore things further and find new things in the process 1/2 #scriptchat

7:39 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen By keeping the scene / character / atmosphere descriptions limited to one sentence works for me 1/1 #scriptchat

7:40 pm sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum I'm hoping to produce a couple of my own shorts, what were the difficulties or positives you found in doing that? #scriptchat

7:41 pm MawScrawl: @Bursteardrum @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen So would you say it was a case of 'less is more'? #scriptchat

7:41 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen If I have everything on a plate in the script, the development / rehearsal process becomes a bit dull #scriptchat

7:41 pm mina_zaher: @sweettweenie That's exciting. Do u know who'll direct it? And why did you choose producing rather than directing as other role? #scriptchat

7:41 pm rosieclaverton: @bursteardrum What routes would you recommend for shorts writers looking for a director/producer? #scriptchat

7:41 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen If I have everything on a plate in the script, the development / rehearsal process becomes a bit dull #scriptchat

7:41 pm Bursteardrum: @MawScrawl @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen Yes, especially from a actor's POV, they love to create their characters as much as they can #scriptchat

7:42 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie Do you mean just becoming a producer not directing? #scriptchat

7:42 pm mina_zaher: @Bursteardrum @FurryWolfen That's so interesting. Why does it become boring? So tweeps getting a clearer understanding. #scriptchat

7:43 pm Perczynski: @FurryWolfen @bursteardrum @Mina_Zaher good question. I'm feeling a trend to stress the writers to write more detailed scripts #scriptchat

7:43 pm sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum yes, just producing rather than doing it all. #scriptchat

7:43 pm janetvaneeden: RT @gretaharrison: They call it a "vomit draft" because you get it out quickly, right? Not because of the vile stench it leaves? #screenwriting #scriptchat

7:43 pm Hollyw00t: @Bursteardrum Why would I take your advice? Do I know you? No offense. #ScriptChat

7:44 pm Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen If a writer puts everything to their scripts, it means the director & cast just go out and shoot 1/1 #scriptchat

7:44 pm Bursteardrum: @Hollyw00t No offence at all, this is just my own views, everyone is free to do what they like! #scriptchat

7:45 pm janetvaneeden: RT @Bursteardrum: @mina_zaher @FurryWolfen If a writer puts everything to their scripts, it means the director & cast just go out and shoot 1/1 #scriptchat

7:45 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie It's really important you find a director who shares your vision 1/2 #scriptchat

7:45 pm janetvaneeden: RT @Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie It's really important you find a director who shares your vision 1/2 #scriptchat

7:45 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie And producing your own script means you have more involvement unlike many just-writers 1/2 #scriptchat

7:46 pm mina_zaher: Ha! RT @gretaharrison: They call it a "vomit draft" because you get it out quickly, right? Not bc of the vile stench it leaves? #scriptchat

7:46 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie It's really important you find a director who shares your vision 1/2 #scriptchat

7:46 pm Bursteardrum: @thewritertype Huzzah to a fellow Bristolian! (am I right?) #scriptchat

7:47 pm mina_zaher: @sweettweenie That's so cool. Did you write the script? @TaroJ #scriptchat

7:47 pm sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum cool, agree about being happy with director if there's a choice, and hopefully producing means there is. #scriptchat

7:47 pm Hollyw00t: @Bursteardrum What did you direct, I guess is what I'm asking. #scriptchat

7:48 pm FurryWolfen: @Bursteardrum So bottom line, write enough to let the actor and director know which way to go. The rest is all them #scriptchat

7:48 pm janetvaneeden: RT @sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum cool, agree about being happy with director if there's a choice, and hopefully producing means there is. #scriptchat

7:48 pm beingbrad: Just in case anyone missed the drop, http://stealmyscript.com #21 just dropped. #scriptchat #screenwriting

7:49 pm janetvaneeden: RT @FurryWolfen: @Bursteardrum So bottom line, write enough to let the actor and director know which way to go. The rest is all them #scriptchat

7:49 pm Bursteardrum: @FurryWolfen Sure. I find working with other people you find things in the script no one thought of #scriptchat

7:49 pm zaraaltair: RT @Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie It's really important you find a director who shares your vision 1/2 #scriptchat

7:50 pm sweettweenie: @mina_zaher @TaroJ and I tend to co-write (not that we've done much yet), so will work on one of our scripts together #scriptchat

7:50 pm WestgarthEnt: @Perczynski It's not "more detail" per se, it taking more notice and care of what you put on the page. #ScriptChat

7:50 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @Hollyw00t Hahaha! Sorry my latest film is this; http://www.vimeo.com/19125787 #scriptchat

7:51 pm Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt @Perczynski You should keep descriptions blunt & to the point, the best scripts I've read are like this #scriptchat

7:51 pm mina_zaher: @Hollyw00t Here are more deets on @Bursteardrum's background and work: http://bit.ly/gY9NYT #scriptchat

7:52 pm janetvaneeden: RT @WestgarthEnt: @Perczynski It's not "more detail" per se, it taking more notice and care of what you put on the page. #ScriptChat

7:52 pm Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt @Perczynski It's like how I believe 90 minutes is the best duration for an excellent film #scriptchat

7:52 pm mina_zaher: RT @Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt @Perczynski You should keep descriptions blunt & to the point, the best scripts I've read are like this #scriptchat

7:52 pm Bursteardrum: @thewritertype Nice. Bristol has a great art scene & very inspirational too. #scriptchat

7:53 pm rosieclaverton: @Bursteardrum If you work with a writer, do they bring you scripts or do you give them ideas for a script you want? #scriptchat

7:53 pm mina_zaher: Less than 10 minutes to go on Euro #Scriptchat. Anyone has any last min q's for @Bursteardrum re From Script to Screen? #scriptchat

7:53 pm WestgarthEnt: @Bursteardrum Only if you're writing a comedy... Comedies tend to be shorter than Dramas. #ScriptChat

7:53 pm rosieclaverton: RT @Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt @Perczynski You should keep descriptions blunt & to the point, the best scripts I've read are like this #scriptchat

7:54 pm sweettweenie: how did you make the jump from graphic designer to director? #scriptchat

7:54 pm Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt I have to say some of my favourite films are 90 mins such as Trainspotting / Go / Punch Drunk Love #scriptchat

7:54 pm zaraaltair: RT @Bursteardrum: @WestgarthEnt @Perczynski You should keep descriptions blunt & to the point, the best scripts I've read are like this #scriptchat

7:55 pm Bursteardrum: @rosieclaverton So far I haven't had a writer give me a script, been mostly working together on our own ideas #scriptchat

7:56 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie I always had been a film buff only as a hobby, I had quite a reputation for being obsessed with films 1/2 #scriptchat

7:56 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie And being profoundly Deaf I am a very visual person so being a creative person made it easy 1/2 #scriptchat

7:57 pm rosieclaverton: @Bursteardrum Do you find that writer-types approach things differently than director-types? Does that help/hinder your process? #scriptchat

7:57 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie So a producer on C4 heard about me being a film buff so asked me to make a short film 1/5 #scriptchat

7:58 pm mina_zaher: @sweettweenie @TaroJ That's v. cool. We're planning a #scriptchat on collaboration soon. :) #scriptchat

7:58 pm Bursteardrum: @rosieclaverton Good question. Tough to answer as I've written a lot of my scripts 1/1 #scriptchat

7:59 pm Bursteardrum: @rosieclaverton But what I like about writers is they get to the crux of the script; the story more than anything else 1/2 #scriptchat

7:59 pm MawScrawl: @Bursteardrum Once you finish a film do you ever look back at the script & are you surprised with how similar/removed they are? #scriptchat

8:00 pm Bursteardrum: @rosieclaverton So they set the foundations set for me or directors to work from 1/3 #scriptchat

8:00 pm mina_zaher: RT @MawScrawl: @Bursteardrum Once you finish a film do you ever look back at the script & are you surprised with how similar/removed they are? #scriptchat

8:00 pm Hollyw00t: @Bursteardrum Cool, Zack Snyder (Dawn of the dead- remake) started out that way. #scriptchat

8:01 pm sweettweenie: @Bursteardrum can definitely 'see' the movie with Chasing Cotton Clouds, love the mix of old school animation and live action #scriptchat

8:01 pm Bursteardrum: @MawScrawl I don't often watch my films again, I cringe, I kick myself, I spot mistakes, I prefer to move on to the next film! #scriptchat

8:01 pm mina_zaher: Wow, I turned into a lurker too. Really interesting to read @Bursteardrum's tweets on From Script to Screen tonight! #scriptchat

8:01 pm sweettweenie: I found your work very Michel Gondry, which I love #scriptchat

8:02 pm Bursteardrum: @sweettweenie Huzzah thanks! Gondry was a big influence. #scriptchat

8:03 pm sweettweenie: @mina_zaher @TaroJ cool, would love a #scriptchat on collaboration. #scriptchat

8:04 pm rosieclaverton: And that was my first #scriptchat ! I completely loved it. Thank you @Bursteardrum for sharing.

8:04 pm Bursteardrum: @Hollyw00t I like Zack Snyder a lot, Watchmen is one of the best comic adaptations and he had the clout to make a R-rated adapt #scriptchat
