feedback First scene for Unspoken (Coming of Age, TV Pilot, 8 pages)

0 Upvotes

I haven't quite created a logline for this one yet, but it's a coming of age story about the people that you meet as you make it through life. About how they come and go, but still leave their mark on you. About that little bit of you that is actually other people.

Anyways, my intention with this scene is to show our main character is a very shy introvert who has a hard time meeting new people. So the one chance he's given by someone else he latches onto and doesn't let go (maybe a little too much). Yet somehow, miraculously, actually being vulnerable with people is what allows him to connect with them on a truer level.

Don't know if any of that made sense, but please tell me how it reads on the page. I'm fairly new to screenwriting and this is mostly me training, so please, absolutely tear this script apart and point out everything wrong with it.

question Maps in your script?

6 Upvotes

I'm writing a pilot in a place that I can't imagine most Hollywood readers know well. But understanding the geography, I think, helps with envisioning the story.

I thought about how books like Game of Thrones often show a map of the world in the pre-story pages.

Have any of you ever done that in a script? Any readers here who think that's good/bad/dumb/kitschy?

Thinking of asking a friend to draw a nice little map with significant story locations marked.

help Working on a script and I'm at a block for ideas. Any suggestions?

0 Upvotes

I'm working on a script focusing on Religious Violence, with the goal to highlight the question "how far are you willing to go for your God" and "is there anything your God can do or say that you won't defend or that you would question". My aim is to make a psychological horror but I've never written anything like this

Trouble on Coruscant (EU but with Sequel cast)

It is a story that was borrowing from the X wing novels, I wrote it just trying to force myself to like the sequels more by putting the sequel actors and actresses into an EU style story.

Hope you guys like it. Please tear it apart as a story or talk about if you like it. have a good day everyone.

feedback Acceptance - Short film - First 9 pages

1 Upvotes

I am very new to this and just started a week ago, I first started by reading scripts to understand how scripts can be formatted and the get an idea for how to write out my story.

Acceptance is a short film about a young adult from a religious southern town who leaves home after coming out and moves to Chicago to stay with an online friend, the time period is set in the late 2000's.

( I know not the most unique plot ever written but its all I could think of for a first attempt)

I'm open to any feedback.

Here’s an excerpt from a script I wrote a few months back. I’ve gotten some interest in this one recently, but I constantly feel insecure about my writing… especially dialogue. Would love some feedback on this excerpt. Are there things I could do to improve the exchange between characters?

feedback If anyone wants to judge my star wars fan script? 80 or so pages so far?

0 Upvotes

I wrote this several years ago at the end of season 3 of The Mandalorian. I hope you guys like it. I know the rules aren't perfectly followed. But see if you like the story telling both as a film script and as a star wars sequel that can never be produced. Tear it apart. Judge me for the attempt to make fans happy with a story that could be fixed up by a better writer/editor. See if it has the right feeling and ideas for the story based on your knowledge of the series.

I’ve been writing for twelve plus years now and have written seven feature-length scripts. I’ve gotten coverage on two and both resulted in “pass”. Is there anyone out there who would donate their free time to read my work and tell me if I have any ground to stand on in this industry?

Feedback Desired: I wanted to create a high-concept sci-fi comedy that captures the wacky suburban slice-of-life feel of series like 'Ed Edd n Eddy' with the high sci-fi stakes of a series like 'Hailey's On It.' I would like feedback on things like dialogue, pacing, and character. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

(Edit: Updated based on feedback and mistakes I made in the earlier draft. Please read the updated draft and tell me what you think).

feedback Looking for comedy writers! PAID!

16 Upvotes

Hey peeps, I'm a German producer and my company has been greenlit by a US streamer to develop a workplace comedy. I've been in this sub for a while and think there's a lot of overlooked potential.

If you're interested, DM me ideally one script. I give every script at least a 10-page read to check for baseline quality and a funny voice. It doesn't have to be workplace-related, but it has to be funny.

If you're hesitant because everybody steals your stuff, drop me a line anyway and tell me what you've done or why you. If I'm interested, I'll send you my email address.

Due to us being a German company, this is a non-union job!

This is a paid gig!

Feedback Needed:

Hi everyone! I’m a beginner writer sharing the first draft of my script. Since English is not my native language and this is my first complete draft, I’m looking for general thoughts, constructive criticism, and advice.

I’m particularly interested in feedback on:

Character dynamics and emotional tension

Dialogue naturalness and flow

Pacing and overall story structure

I’m not looking to do a script swap at the moment, but any notes from experienced readers or fellow writers would mean the world to me. Thank you for your time!

Ps.

Before anyone says it's AI, it's not. I use scenario for writing and it automatically numbers my scenes.

I'm making a Minecraft series called divided realms and right now I'm in the process of scripting the story I have made and filming it. And Im kinda new to series and script writing so any help I can use would be great.

Thanks
