kinda like what i kept on (but eventually gave up on) saying to this guy i unfortunatly know with writing
he pipped up once
"im going to write a screen play"
"whats it about?"
"i dont know yet"
"without some idea of the story your just going to be putting random words into random peoples mouths in random settings"
hell a single a4 plot line would suffice
start - conflict/resolution loop - goal
then knowing what was to follow, bridge collapse, whirlwind romance, bank robbery he could stand a better chance
and a bit of character design never hurts
but no in the end he had the intro mapped in his head of this family with every minute detail leaving a house getting in a car and eventually getting on a plane or ferry as the credits roll and a specific song plays over it all
and that was all he had
