While reading this you’re probably thinking “My god, he just throws random words on a page” I know that some of it doesn’t make any sense, and some of it even LESS. There’s no context for any of it, but I think it’ll be interesting in that respect.
As we progress in the story, and you get a chance to see more and more of the script, you’ll understand where some of these points were going, and why we threw them out so earlier.
In a way we’re chiseling at the stony block of the story with anything at hand, we’ve found this helps flush out ideas, and gives perspective to the current ideas. Plus it can be a lot of fun. I suggest doing what I did, which is put on a five minute song, and just try to chuck out story ideas before it ends. Pressure can make me great.
I consider my sunday’s on this blog to be devoted to whatever I feel like puking onto the page. Most of the time it’ll probably be something goofy and fun, as we explore our world and the joy of writing. But, today, I wanted to give you a look at the Teaser script for Panda Girls. When we first started stoking the fire for this project, we decided that the first thing anybody would see, was a moment of action and fun. Basically we wanted to try and encapsulate the overall feeling of the project into a few pages, which would be the first comic.
For those of you who didn’t know, PG will be in comic form in its first iteration. The reason behind that is simple economics: we can make a comic without spending any money. Once we have the money, we get the power and then we get the women…
You get what I mean. Once everybody knows it, and is onboard, we can move into the film production phase. The advantage of this is that the whole comic process plays into the film production anyways;
storyboards, concept designs, sketches, these are all things that have to happen for the film anyway, so now you get them before we even get into pre-production, and you get a chance to influence it all.
Have a read, but also keep in mind that this isn’t set in stone. Frankly, none of our scripts are ever set in stone, nor should they be. Anybody who tells you they’ve written the final draft of their screenplay/book/restaurant menu, is either kidding themselves or doesn’t plan to BE the writer on-board the project during production. There’s rewrites people…there’s ALWAYS rewrites.
