Lloyd’s Dialogue 3 and 5
Working hard every day to become the best writer I can be and as a result I do become the best writer in Hollywood.
What I learned from this assignment is to continue to tailor your dialogue to the characters and their profiles. This is an ongoing process for the streaming and TV pilot for Benjamin Greene.
I also deleted and removed all of the profanity on the TV pilot. The dialogue is designed to be aired on national TV. The Streaming was toned down a bit. The TV pilot was edited at 45 pages while the Streaming ended up being 58 pages. Irony, sarcasm, banter, warnings, setup with open loops, someone hiding from future consequences, betrayal, indirect prediction about judgement day. These were all added.

CJ’s Dialogue 3-5
I found I had a lot of setups/payoffs along with open loops, some irony but very little anticipatory dialogue (a lot of action, though) so I worked on those last two and will keep working on them.
