Did you even read the definition? You learned grammar. Improving grammar is a slightly different point, but you still learned in order to improve. And you learned to have a starting point. When you learned English, you learned grammar. This isn't harassment - it's a fact that you continue to...

DEF: in·stinc·tive Adjective: (of a person) Doing or being a specified thing apparently naturally or automatically. There. You said proper grammar just comes naturally over time, which is the essential definition of instinctive. This is not true, especially with regard to "proper" grammar...

Not at all. Writers should focus on writing. I can't picture anything I've said has led anyone away from that. My focus in this thread has been on your statement that you can just type and type and learn grammar. I don't care that you weren't "hammered over the head with it (grammar)". You...

So, maralyn, according to you, just by writing more, you get better at grammar, even if you've never been taught grammar. And by not writing, you get better, too. I don't know what I would do if I were you - writing makes you better, but not writing makes you even better, too! I guess YOU just...

How would you know if you're correct or not? You never learned grammar, right? I never professed to be an expert at grammar, nor did I say you have to learn it to write scripts. You did say you didn't learn it, and that anyone can get better at it by just writing, and that isn't true. Being...

Okay. Whatever. You're obviously not going to admit the fact that grammar isn't a natural thing, and that language and its usage is learned. But you are completely and absolutely wrong. gelder

I'm not trying to change the fact that's how you learned - I'm saying "you learned". It didn't just come to you, as you said in your first statement: "Proper grammar just comes naturally over time, as you clock up a few writing hours. As you learn to re read carefully, as you become inclined...

Your theory that someone will just start to understand inherent mistakes because they see big red circles is incredibly spurious. You have to study grammar to understand it. For example, if I make a spelling mistake, using "there", as in location, instead of "their", possessive, seeing someone...

I didn't tell anyone to study grammar. I said you have to actively learn in order to learn grammar. You didn't just pick up grammar by typing. You might like to think you did, but you were taught, either by making mistakes that others corrected, or being taught by a teacher of some sort, or...

I'm still winding my way through this thread, but just wanted to address this point by saying a) this statement is kinda ridiculous, and b) yes, I have sold a script to a production company. Grammar is something you learn in school, by learning and following rules of grammar. It isn't...

I think you could do more with this - you have a 48 second teaser, the first 15 seconds of which is your company logo and "Presents". As a typical Internet viewer, someone with no experience with I Creator, I don't care about the company releasing this and I don't get much from your...

The Darkest Hour. 1 out of 5. Bad. Stupid. Bleh. gelder

Congrats! Funny video, too. Open bar is a definite win and more useful than most awards. Wear a jacket. Put ziploc bags in the pockets, open. Order numerous drinks and blatantly pour them into the bags and close them up. If anyone looks at you while you're doing this, bare your teeth and...

Hey, Matt! Good to see you here. Guys, I have worked with and know Matt - great guy and a valuable asset to any situation - well, unless you want to keep lenses away from black bear cubs... gelder

Thanks, Ernest - I wouldn't mind hearing your feedback on the other aspects. Appreciate your nod to my DPing. gelder

Thanks, richy. It's more that I'm all right working as DP, than I feel driven to do more of it. The feature film came about because I owned gear and was willing to give up months and months of my time to shoot. I like working almost all positions on the set, and I like being able to tell...

Thanks, Cam and Jeff... Yeah, I think the interlace is at the beginning of Christmas Presence...? Around the white door as it swings...? And I agree about the first few moments in the shower. Maybe I should have mentioned there's an almost naked lady in one of the films to get more...

Thanks for watching..! Yeah, the producer can only budget so much, and she hasn't been able to afford bringing in a sound guy yet, so the sound is just a shotgun mic set on a boom stand positioned as best as I can. Would love to have someone covering on-set audio. She's a close friend, so I...

I have a feature film I acted as Producer and Director of Photography for, "Reverb Junkies" coming out early next year, and was asked to DP a couple of films for an actress/friend of mine. She intends to make a third film and have the three of them as a kind of triptych when screened together...
