    ai AI Video has arrived - It looks incredible

    Well, if it's of any consolation, that post suceeded in dragging me out of an entirely different rabbit (worm?) hole in which I've been pootling about since your costume/dress-making query several months ago πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ - a corner of YouTube inhabited by so many women with unimaginably long nails and...

    screenplay How to make it in the UK?

    Whether or not it would serve as a useful stepping stone to stage or film performances I can't say, but radio drama is definitely a very accessible medium in Britain and Ireland (and an aspect of life I miss a lot, living in France). The national broadcasters in both countries regularly invite...

    Well seeing as you asked: Whose opinion is that? :hmm: Certainly not mine, as I pointed out to you that the long-standing advice to students of science is "don't believe anything you read in the papers (unless you've tested it for yourself)" And let's back up a bit: you asked for suggestions...

    I am reading them, and (right up to the last one) you're still making a Big Deal about the legitimacy or otherwise of the peer-review gateway to getting research published ... having very clearly stated that The flaws of peer review is not the central subject of my video. :hmm: Okay, obviously...

    No! :D That's lot of confusion and mixed messaging. The passage above suggests that this is an educational video, yet the previous excerpt is very definitely in the realm of opinion and debate. Those are not necessarily polar opposites, but if you start with an absolutist statement ("It's...

    Primarily the latter, by means of the former! :cool: The first "grown-up" theatre play I ever went to (won the tickets in a letter-writing competition as a schoolboy) was about Galileo trying to convince the Church of this stupid idea that maybe the Earth orbited the Sun, so I've had a...

    Well, as they say, that changes everything. For that part of the script, I don't know why you'd bother with any kind of an "interesting" background. There are, for me, two major problems straight off: (1) Based on that excerpt, this isn't a documentary, it's an opinion piece, and the opinion is...

    Something's lurking in the woodpile ... :-/

    I'll tell you what's scary: At the start of the week, I was a sad old man living alone in the back end of nowhere. Now I'm a sad old man with a load of cats! :scared: The cat I thought might have been the mother is, in fact, BigBrother (the spotted tabby on the left) about 4-5 months old...

    logline Help me with the logline

    These are two contradictory statements! You can't write a succint summary of a plot destined to attract the attention of viewers (which is what a logline is) if the story hasn't been written and may yet develop in unpredictable ways. As you've described your objective above, you have an...

    critique Feedback needed for opening scene of my newest Screenplay.

    Yep - it's an interesting start. I'd go along with @mlesemann 's suggestion of avoiding the overt use of the word "death" straight off like that, but I think the erotic asphyxiation is a humerous touch. Perhaps you could develop the reading of the list a little bit to include other common forms...

    River - a short interactive film experiment

    I think these two points are related. To answer the second one first: no, I didn't - after about a dozen selections, I ended up in a loop with the same choice as earlier and by then, I'd had enough of sitting in a boat floating down a river :mope: so went off to play CGPGray's...

    Something's lurking in the woodpile ... :-/

    Went out to the barn this afternoon to look for some timber and found ... Well, now missy, where did you come from? We haven't had authorised cats or kittens here for many a long year. Well, un train peut en cacher un autre, as they say on all the best...

    River - a short interactive film experiment

    Visual interest and section length would, for me, go hand-in-hand with the story and the choices, so it's hard to comment usefully on the former given that it was essentially an exercise. From a practical point of view, I lost interest in the story after the first minute, so played the rest of...

    Not really - as I said, it was a few years ago, so it's entirely possible the places I saw/visited have been repaired/demolished since then, but based on recent news footage I've seen of decent areas I walked through that since become desolate fentanyl-zombie-infested zones, I doubt there's any...
