Saturday, July 14, 2007Writers' Tips: Treatment
I'm working on a series of small scripts for one of the major studios, and after three drafts of the treatment, I finally realized that I was spinning my wheels. More specifically, the value gained in outlining and understanding your story starts to diminish if you don't actually roll your sleeves up and start WRITING.
So instead of another version of the treatment, I just kicked out a full script for part 1 of 5. Suddenly, all the holes/weaknesses in the treatment became very clear to me, as did how to finish the remaining scripts. My client said, "so are you going to finish the rest of the scripts and then rewrite the treatment based on that?" I said yes. He said, "I was joking." I was not. Remember: When stuck, switch it up.
