Quick Tool for your Screenplay: Outlining

So you want to make a movie?
You have it in your head, but you think that writing the script is too damn difficult?
Well, it ain't easy, but if it were, EVERYONE would be doing it!

The quick trick I use to write a screenplay is Outlining:
  • Write an outline (just make a simple list of the scenes in your movie, similar to the "selection scene" menu on a DVD)
  • Use index cards if necessary
  • It'll probably be one or two pages long
Some writers hate outlining, but I love it...
Think of it as a "map" for your script.
