If rewriting is unsinking the ship, then the first thing you should do is decide how to move your scenes away from talking and into revealing action.
It’s a good rule of thumb to consult your theme to choose how you execute escalations and conflicts in action. Meaning things we watch instead of listen to people talk about.
I just read a great pilot that talked too much. I recommended it anyway, because the premise was suck-in-your-breath good, but it did not trust the power of visuals, and many of the conversations did not add to what we could see.
So really read for that. Do I need this conversation to discuss what we can readily intuit by showing the development, or have I set up this situation well enough to trust that no explanation is required?
