Genuinely, thank you so much for simplifying screenplay writing, I could genuinely not know how to make a screenplay without you and the simplified guides. You make screenplay writing actually *fun* (at least for me).
I created a character that is the total opposite of me with strong beliefs. And when I really stripped the layers back I saw that the character was a manifestation of my own insecurities and me trying to make peace with them them through the character's arc.
i like that you start to include psychological patterns into storytelling/filmmaking (obviously bc of your own journey) bc they are obviously there as the psyche is always present whether conscious or un-/subconscious. makes me also feel more connected.
I quit writing one year ago. I decided to start writing but I was not getting motivation. Now I decided to start writing again if I am lucky I may also earn money or something more but I don't care I love it so I will do it. I also decided to start reading novels again. I am also studying psychology which may help me write stories or my stories will help me learn about my psychology.
You hit the nail on the head. I feel trapped in my own mind, and every time i try to explain the stories outside of story... language fails. This is a good reminder of the importance of telling the story, if for nobody else then just myself.
@@TylerMowery Thank you for replying me Taylor. I just wanted to tell you that I am your follower from United Arab Emirates. I am passionate in writing and I have a project in writing a script in your language with your help of course. Hopefully to meet you soon until then.
All the horrible things that are unfolding around the world, the destruction of my birthplace by a dictator, made me feel I have a moral obligation to tell my story.
My writing is enjoyed by people, but I have no idea how to make money out of it. Your advice steers me in the right direction, personally I've never taken it seriously, but that's self-sabotage and I understand that being able to use writing as a means to build your lifelihood has to become a belief first before I'm able to become serious about it. Thanks again tyler, I love the nature backdrop, so relaxing.
Wow Mr. Tyler this was a word... This was what my soul needed to hear because I have been stuck and afraid and everyone people that write say different things but I needed to understand why it hurts when I write and I just thank you so very much because I feel like I just took my first breath in a very long time.. I get it now. I am so grateful I don't even have the words to explain how thankful I am for you right now. Thank you so very very much 🙏🏾 God Bless 🙏🏾 thank you Tyler..❤❤❤😊😊😢😊😊
I have a very funny story about dreams. Back when I was in grade 9 I was addicted to weed and nicotine through vaping. I would go to the washroom to vape, I was lazy in school, I would only hit the gym once a week, I was high at least 2 times a week, probably depressed and I wasn't even thinking of stopping. But one day my mom who knew about everything came into my room telling me 'Please don't vape in the washrooms anymore'. I asked why and she said she had a dream that she got from the printable of the school telling her I got caught vaping in the washroom. Pretty standard coming from her, right? But she said something else; I was crying in the office and asking to talk to her on the phone. For context, I have gotten caught vaping in the washroom before this and I did not have a reaction like this at all. My mom tried asking the principal what happened and the principal said I wouldn't tell them. My mom heard the principal hand the phone over to me and I was inconsolable. I was apparently asking her to come to the school, and when she asked me what happened I was having difficulty articulating what occurred due to being almost inaudible. She got in her car and was walking up the steps to get to the front doors of the school... and then she woke up. She said it felt so real that when she thought about it it felt like a memory of something that actually happened. I of course brushed it off and continued doing what I was doing. My mom's worried for me, it makes sense. It was in the back of my mind but I would be able to rationalize it. Until I went to my grandma's place to use their new punching bag. For context, my grandma only knew that my grades were slipping, she didn't know about anything else. We were talking a lot like we usually do and brought something up. You can probably guess what it was; she had a dream. She said that she was at home working out when she got the call from my mom. My mom sounded like she was in distress. My mom said that she was at the school in the principal's office and apparently I got beat up. My Grandma looked very disturbed as she was telling me this like it scared her a lot. And to top it off she too said it felt very real. I was on edge whenever I went into the washrooms and always had an escape plan. I even stopped bringing my own vape to school which gave me the belief that it reduced my chances and just leached off of other people for it and lied about having no money. But I was always on edge. And to escape that I even started smoking more and more. It got to the point where on my way home I would start to have a panic attack due to my high wearing off. To soothe myself I would usually watch a light-hearted show. I would go to the gym occasionally but didn't like going when there were a lot of people which was any time after school. I was also a fly on the wall socially, very quiet, had nothing of value to say, and quite frankly socially awkward. It was always an escape and I was in a bad state. Until one morning... This morning was in the washroom chilling waiting for one of my buddies who I would always chill with at that time in that setting. It always just be us because both of us get to school early and feen off of him. He walked into the wash and we talked some small talk for a bit. he pulled out his vape hit it a couple of times and knowing that I would ask him, he offered it to me. For the first time in a year, I said no to hitting a vape. Two days later I started going to the gym in the morning. This is over a year ago now. At that time I thought that dream was a curse waiting to swallow me up, but now I think it was the best thing that has ever happened to me. I still have demons to deal with, but I'm consistent in the gym, I read regularly and I haven't touched a vape, cigarette, or any weed-related products since then. That was all because of a little dream.
I had a dream about a few of my characters only once. They essentially found out they were “clones” and were deeply disturbed. I basically ripped off the characters from another genre and accidentally fell in love, it took over a year to realize what the dream literally meant
@@TylerMowery that would feel so much more natural lol. but what Mic are you using? I need something like that in noisy environment, filter out unwanted noises
