Beginnings?2013 | Irv Bauer on Screenwriting

The best part?the fun part ? the exciting part. The burst of an idea? the exuberance and energy of it. The glory of it? it must be like giving birth. I can only imagine ? but I have felt the jolt of a new idea. Some of you have to nurse it along before it becomes clear. Others jump out and it bangs you on the head. They come charging out from anywhere, unannounced, unpredictable? sometimes uninvited. An overheard piece of conversation drifting down the street, a fragment of a newspaper story. Yes I still read newspapers. I like to feel them in my hands.? Old habits? Once the germ has infected you ? you have to cultivate it?let it grow into a full fledged storm in that hot house of your head and then let, whatever will attach itself to that little bugger, do it?s will. Who knows, with a little patience?time and ?attention, something (story ?) may grow.? Alright, now you?re sick with consumption, clogged with stuff, pregnant with pauses? what do you do with all this excess? You have to get it out of the hairy theory infecting you? into a form ?a mass ? a practical presence? The hard part? molding it into a film form ? creating a screenplay.

The Screenplay?, ?A Technical Manual ?Artfully Written.? Writers who know the value of the camera ?you are writing for film, a visual medium ?and telling your stories from the point of view of what is to be seen on the screen in an interesting, unique and insightful way. ?Artfully Written.? Artists who write with the technical necessity of the visual component, in mind? that?s what screenwriting is all about. And, the more you do it? practice?the better you get at it? and ?the more interesting your screenplays will be ? and ?the more available to the film industry you make yourself.

The New Year, 2013 is a New Beginning.? Take up the challenge with both hands and your teeth.? Go get ?em tigers! Speaking of tigers? go see ?Life of Pi.?
