Do you do critiques? / Can you read and evaluate my script?

Frequently Asked Questions - scottmccloud.com
I can look at artwork at conventions, though my advice isn't very commercially oriented. I'm no good at scripts, I'm too visually oriented. On the other hand, I'm happy to get url's for online comics. I can't always respond, but I promise to at least look.

How do I get people to read my script?

Crafty Screenwriting Frequently Asked Questions
A good query letter says in one paragraph what the hook of the story is. Asks if I'd like to read it. And (occasionally) includes personal information relevant to the script. That's all it needs to do! The story sells itself, or it doesn't. And even if the idea is good, if you can't write a clear one-page letter that draws me into your story, I will draw the obvious conclusion that your 115-page script won't draw me in, either.

Why does it reformat a script I just read in?

Page 2 Stage - F.A.Q.
There are two reasons it will do this. First, if the version of Page 2 Stage that saved this script was a different version, newer or older, then the script will be reformatted. This is done in case the formatting rules changed between versions. Second, formatting breaks are made according to the printer font (it is more critical than the screen font). If the printer font is different from the printer font on the computer that saved the script, then the script will be reformatted.

How do I call one script-fu script from another?

GIMP - Documentation
The trick to calling script-fu-scripts from another script is to just reference the main define for the script and not to try to use the pdb call. All the scripts in script-fu share a common name space; you call other scripts just like a regular function / define / whatever you call those those things in_scheme.

What is Script-Fu?

GIMP - Documentation
Script-Fu is the first GIMP scripting extension. Extensions are separate processes that communicate with the GIMP in the same way that plug-ins do. The distinction is that extensions don't require an active image to operate on, instead extending GIMP's functionality. GIMP internals for version 1.0 have been completely overhauled from version 0.54. In particular, the plug-in API has been made far more general with the advent of the procedural database (PDB).

Do I have to buy the School Play Package before I read the script?

Children's Theatre Plays: Frequently Asked Questions
No. Most teachers know Children's Theatre Play.com's reputation and prefer to pay for the School Play Package and get going on the production right away - plus save money (cost of the Package is much less than purchasing all items separately)! But if you'd like to read the script first, you may order the perusal script and purchase a Performance License later.

Will you read my script? Can I send you my story idea by email?

Christy Marx: scriptwriter and game designer: writing FAQ pa...
No, I'm sorry, but I must decline to read unsolicited material. That includes email containing unsolicited ideas or attached files. The instant I detect that an email might contain someone's idea or a pitch, I DELETE IT WITHOUT READING IT. There are two reasons. One is time. When I have spare time, there are a lot of other things I want to do with it. Some writers, agents and companies will read for a fee. I'm not interested in doing that, nor could I charge enough to make it worth my time.

My students read the audio script while they do the self-study listening work. How can I stop them?

Cambridge Touchstone
Realistically, you probably can’t stop students from reading the audio scripts if they really want to, but you can remind them that their listening skills will likely improve much more if they try to listen without the scripts. In the beginning, students may want to rely on the audio scripts, as the scripts will help them feel more confident.

I've never read a script before. Will I be able to follow what's going on?

Babylon 5 Scripts - FAQ - J. Michael Straczynski
Absolutely. Scripts are written in a very straight-forward fashion: the location, then what action takes place there, and what the characters in that scene say. Look, these things were written for studio and network executives to read, and if THEY can read a script, ANYbody can read a script. None of the foregoing was written by J.

Never. I cannot afford to hire the people required to fill envelopes and mail them. Nor can I afford the time required to stuff a bunch of SASEs. For me to be here for writers, actors and filmmakers, I must keep my costs as low as possible. If I can't pay the overhead, the concept is doomed. Get it?!
