Balls big salty balls .
I just spent an hour writing some epicness about the written word vs the visual medium, and how the visual medium for me always falls short.
Examples of recent scenes I had written and how they translate visually via the screen play etc.
Quotes from my farouite author and his words on teh topic.
And at the end I copied it to the clipboard , closed out of word and pasted it into the awaiting text bubble. Then went o youtube and copied the a youtube link of a video me and greg made as an example of Gregs screenplays and when I returned to the post, I was being asked to log in (it had timed out I wrote so much) . The only thing in my clipboard now was the youtube link. Windows sucks balls sometimes.!!!
So here is the video.

The scene I am writing just now is based on an experience in the floatation tanks I had .
My barbarian enters a stairwell into complete darkness, the air is body temperature, his eyes cannot adjust, depth perception is no longer. The corridor is cramped he can touch both sides. He depends cautiously, into a flooded lower section, this water is also body temp and it is the sound of a different medium that signals this. He know he has to duck dive the stair well, find an exit or die. As the stair well is too narrow to turn in the water.
It's all about fear and being the master of your mind. It's around 2 thousand words.
It would be hard to allow a director to translate this. This is why I prefer the word, as it allows me to directly express the world I am creating.
