My scripts are in visual form … I don’t think [film’s] a literary medium anyway, so why waste work?

Satyajit Ray (via jamesgrantbrown)

I wrestle with this constantly.  Scripts are so much work because you sort of have to reverse engineer it – instead of cutting straight to the image, you’re adding words to describe the image.  It feels like the words get in the middle and jumble everything up.  I spend so much of my time trying to untangle and simplify as much as possible – the better to more purely get at the image.
