Back from Belgium

After an AMAZING trip to Belgium I'm back and starting to do work for my final year. My whole idea for my final year is to write a feature film script and then strip it down to a fifteen minute movie. Then that way I have a short film to submit to festivals and a spec script to go with it if people enjoy the film. That way I've made a spec script which could get picked up for a feature and I'd be prepared. Now the hard time, writing the feature. I've started to read the Guerilla Guide to Film Making and it's given me great advice on how to write my script. I used to just write tons of dialgoue and see where it ended up. Obviously that didn't help me tell a story but a jumble of scenes put together. The most useful thing to do is keep writing more pages of the same story, adding more details. From a one page synopsis, to two pages, to four, then ten, then a twenty page treatment. That's where I'm at for the moment, about five pages in.
