Visuals come to me with when I think of random stupid ideas throughout the day.
I generally have an idea spring to mind, then visualise movie sequences around that idea and expand it into a visual story.
Then i start to write it down... adding sequences as i imagine/visualise them until i have completed the screenplay.

Interesting! This theme/approach appears to be common amongst amateur filmmakers/script-writers. Modern film is not of course visual storytelling, it's audio/visual storytelling! This is a fundamental fact of modern filmmaking, the full implications of which are frequently overlooked/ignored by no budget filmmakers and script writers, with predictable consequences as far as the viewing public are concerned. Certainly something all filmmakers and script writers need to consider!
