It's not true that it "only" happens in post! Nolan, Tarantino, Ryan Johnson

@humpfreylupin8292 Жыл бұрын

It sounds more like he was saying that the final decision is in post. The final decision could be to just go with the writer’s ideas. Also I think it’s kind of depends on the screenplay. If there is a B plot that reveals a key fact that the audience needs to know at a certain time then it can’t really be moved around. Or if the emotional impact of that B plot scene really works well after the A plot scene prior then the writer might not want it to be rearranged. But the fact that anything can happen in production and post production really applies to everything. I don’t think writers care enough or have enough power to demand the final cut looks like what they envisioned. Unless it’s some famous writer director producer celebrity or something.

The multiplot films as mentioned here are not nonlinear. They all follow a line en as they parallel, interweave and crisscross each other.

4:13 I don't know, I suspect Tarantino wrote it the way it was shot, or at least roughly...I mean, he might have said that somewhere, is what I mean...or maybe I'm wrong...well, he had written True Romance to be shot in a non-linear fashion, so in that case, at least, it wasn't post-production, since they didn't do it that way, ultimately, and he wasn't even making the actual film, etc...

@archangecamilien1879 3 жыл бұрын

..maybe that's why I think he probably wrote Pulp Fiction the way it was made, etc...

@archangecamilien1879 3 жыл бұрын

Tarantino even didn't know "who did it" in The Hateful Eight...I mean...of course, not saying his films are exactly the way he wrote them, he talked about deleted scenes, etc, on occasion...there was something in Kill Bill or something, I don't remember...not even a deleted scene, they didn't even shoot that one...

This is garbage. To create characters that do not fit reality is utter nonsense. It doesn't matter if the unusualness of the character repeats itself. Roe example, in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Clint Eastwood's ability to hit a rope with a bullet from far off is all we need to know that this story is so farfetched that it holds no reality. It doesn't matter if he does it both times, both times it is wrong. The tit-for-tat that makes a story worthwhile is missing for it is obvious that one side is so much more capable than the other that there is no meaningful conflict.

I found it extremely difficult, because I tried structuring it any all possible ways before writing the first draft. Then I just started writing the screenplay without planning to much, and with trial and error, and many drafts, it just came together perfect

One of the best lines of exposition in my humble opinion was a line spoken to Sylvester Stallone in Rambo II. The Colonel is speaking to Rambo, who is in a federal prison, and asks him, "You can't possibly want to stay here for another five years." That one, simple sentence told the audience an incredible amount of information and gave us Rambo's backstory. Stallone complemented that incredible line by displaying that haunting look in his eyes.

QT said many times that wen he wrote Pulp Fiction with his friend the goal was to write 3 stories and interlace them together. So he probably knew in advence a few things they were gonna shared in comon but i'm quite sure they were written separatly, particularly due to the fact that the Willis chapter wasn't even written by him, except for the Chris Walken's watch speach which he added himself afterwords.

Classic example of blunder 4 (ostentatious): That alleged Great Line in Star Wars III, "So this is how liberty dies..." It's so painfully obvious Lucas thought that it was a Great Line that he just HAD to put in. In reality, it calls attention to itself with "Oh, How GREAT I Am!"

Can someone tell me how many times I have to use the gap? Every beat, scene, squence,...?

@Greendalewitch 7 жыл бұрын

Stop thinking in terms of sequences, beats etc. Jus think about the story. Use the gap only when it is appropriate. Like for say when a worker who has been mentally abused by her boss one day suddenly says; Shut. THE FUCK UP! Now that is a good example of the Gap. What character expects to happen and what DOES happen. A great character surprises himself, just like us. He does something that he never expected to do when the Antagonistic force of the world presses down on him. I went to Robert Mckee seminar a few years back and he said; A character reveals himself under pressure. The greater the pressure the more the character has to force himself to evolve, and in that moment the gap opens. Hope that explains.

For everyone wondering where part the rest of the parts are, this KZfaq Channel is simply a sample of Storylogue.com video lessons. On Storylogue.com there are 60 second samples of all the video lessons, and you must sign up and pay (at the moment) a 20$ monthly fee or 200$ yearly fee to have access to all the video lessons. I purchased it because there are a ton a lessons and they are of high quality, so I've purchased one month and if I don't like it supposedly I can cancel at any time. Cheapest creative writing education I'll ever get honestly.
