A key part of #TVwriting that isn’t often taught AFAIK is the #ProductionRewrite: revs required by budget, schedule, unforeseen circumstances etc. So here are some exercises to try with a completed script. For added realism give yourself a time limit, such as a day. Or 2 hrs😳
1/
Your episode is over budget on cast. You can keep your main characters, but reduce your script’s secondary characters by at least 50%. (tip: Who can you cut or combine? Can you give dialogue to existing characters?) #ProductionRewrite #TVwriting
2/
In prep, the director found a new location everyone loves, including you. Pick a location in your script where at least three scenes take place and rewrite those scenes for a completely different location. #ProductionRewrite #TVwriting
