Mike Started Act 4
My Vision is to write an original screenplay, make a couple of calls to pitch it, to start a bidding war.
Things are going well. I don’t think I have ever finished a first draft this fast and with so many directions to expand the character arcs and the plot. Look at the finish line right now!

Pat Started Act 4
My vision is to have fun completing this class with a contest-winning script that will establish me as a courageous and original writer.What I’ve learned is that I’m writing faster with every lesson. My characters continue to surprise me with their actions and dialogue as I dutifully stick with my outline. Whether I’m actually writing at 30% capacity remains to be seen, but I’m having a great time following the high-speed writing rules.

Margaret Started Act 4
My Vision: To write profound faith-based screenplays that are produced.
What I learned: High-speed writing has become easy! I didn’t get distracted once today – just kept moving on…
How is it going for me: So excited to be on Act 4. I had a hard time imagining being this far a few weeks ago. Currently on page 79. -

WIM+AI – Module 5 – Lesson 12
Robin’s: Start Act 4! 6 – 10 Pages.
MY VISION: I aim to make my writing flow naturally, like second nature, crafting stories that resonate globally and leave a mark, backed by a supportive team.
What I learned in this lesson, the light is at the end of the tunnel. The path to the end is near whether I could see it or not. I know where the light is, and I followed my nose.
Starting my Act 4 I had a lot of momentum going in. My Act 3 led me to this point and despite all the flaws, I felt confident to keep trusting my outline and bang out the opening Act 4 scenes. I’ve set up the team for the ultimate show down. I know I’ll be rewriting these scenes with more power and thrill. For now, they move me forward and there’s much room for improvement. I love this method of writing. I’m getting it out of my head, and that feels great. I guess I’m really having fun!

Subject: Monica Started Act 4
VISION: I am a very successful screenwriter who has had multiple movies made.
What I learned from doing this assignment is to keep moving forward and writing as fast as I can without going to do any revisions.
How it’s going:
Finished the first third of the final Act. Had to insert a couple of extra scenes for it to make sense. Ideas are flowing, continue to add script notes so as not to forget them.

David Z Started Act 4
Vision:
I am an interesting, dependable, successful writer that people love to work with.What I learned from doing this assignment is even deciding to write one sentence will give me ideas to continue… don’t get stuck before you start the day!
How it’s going… was worried that I had finished too soon but will be more comfortable adding the suspense and conflict on my subsequent drafts… celebrated that I finished!

James Started Act 4
My Vision: I am a great writer who is recognized by the industry as an exceptional collaborator able to elevate any project into production and have maximum success.
What I learned from doing this assignment is…that my story has a different tone now given the protagonist and antagonist are headed to the showdown of sorts. The high speed rules force me to think fast about the scene which translates into writing it quickly. I still have new ideas popping up as write that may or may not serve the story.

Kathryn Started Act 4
I choose to be a highly creative and energized writer who makes big movies and loves her life working with the most creative people in the world.
Finished all this a while ago but was on the move and too busy to post. It went well, and I loved using writing sprints to power through and keep me mindful of writing at a lower quality than I'm used to. Realized reading this lesson that my conflict in the end doesn't have enough interaction between the protag and antag, so now that's on the list to fix for 2nd draft.

Terrie Start Act 4
I finished Act 4 pretty fast wasn’t looking at the assignments just getting scenes using my outline. -
Jan Started Act 4
I took a step backwards and started editing my outline. I felt the conflict was lacking substance and logic. I know I should not have been doing that.
My Vision: I am a talented and strong writer with a unique voice, recognized by the movie industry with multiple screenplays produced.
What I learned from this assignment was to keep to the outline was hard, knowing I felt there was room for improvement at that level
