Too Many Story Ideas
So, I know I need to post on here more, but I need to talk about some stuff.
What do you do when you have too many story ideas in your brain, but can't keep one long term? Because I started writing my Bianca di Angelo Lives AU again, but I’m also working on a screenplay and now another story idea is developing for a book trilogy.
My current plan is to just work on the fanfic on the side when I have time with my main project being the screenplay because that has the end goal of being a film by 2025 for school. But this book trilogy I know I can’t start writing it because it will just take over, but I want to at least outline it and develop the characters.
And on top of that there’s a one-shot I want to write in The Dragon Prince because I can’t get the idea out of my head and I want to write it, but it’s a one-shot so there's not the worry of not finishing it.
It’s like I always have a story to tell, but I just keep getting new ideas that I want to work on. Should I just write all the ideas down as ideas in some notebooks to look at another time when I get more ideas for stories? Because maybe I’ll want to write them later in life when I’m not working on something else.
This isn’t something that is only happening now, it’s been happening for years. I have stories I started writing in notebooks but abandoned because I wasn’t interested anymore. I just want a way to work with the creative flow and actually finish stuff before starting other projects.
Does anyone have any advice?
write a fake article
hey guys, so I’m making a movie and in one of the scenes there’s a fake newspaper. I have one article and need a few more. This movie isn’t making any money, it’s a volunteer project already, but I was hoping I could get some help filling up the paper.
Some notes about the world: this world has elves and other magical beings, but magic disappeared during the Industrial Revolution. It looks a lot like our world, but more eco-aware and more accepting.
basically, any kind of articles are welcome. They won’t be onscreen very long, I just thought I’d leave this here to see if anyone wants to write one. If you want to write one, drop a comment and DM me the article
I'm Making a Movie!!!
Oh. My. God. I cannot believe I'm filming a movie right now!
I've been planning this movie for just over a year now and have been desiring to make a live action project for much longer than that. (Seriously, I wrote a pjo universe web series script four years ago)
I can't believe I'm actually at the point of making the magic happen. I've been filming for two days and am so excited to continue making movie magic throughout the summer.
I've adored filmmaking since I was in 5th grade and have known ever since that that's what I wanted to do when I got older. I started by making stop-motion videos with my American Girl Dolls and putting them on YouTube (here: https://www.youtube.com/@april_eclipse_studios )
I am still in disbelief that I am making my first movie, even if no one is getting paid in it because it's just volunteer for a school thing for next year.
