Ever get writer’s block, or need a movie idea quick?
Script Reader Pro suggests 5 proven ways to unlock original movie ideas.
1. Turn off your phone and get outside. (Let your mind wander. Cue “Fixing a Hole.”)
2. Study other writers’ loglines. (My favourite: “Transported to a surreal landscape, a young girl kills the first person she meets and then teams up with three strangers to kill again.“)
3. Plunder real life. (Omg, that weird thing that happened to you or your relative might be the genesis of a great story!)
4. Focus on what moves you. (Your expertise will make your protagonist interesting.)
5. Forget “what if?” and relax. (Not sure about this one. “What if?” is one of my favourite questions.)
My take: lol! I only come up with one killer idea once every 1,000 days!
