Even More Script

So far I'm continuing through at the same pace. I'm now on page 31. It is becoming apparent that the pacing is very inconsistent. However, this is an easy fix when I go to revise. All it means is I need to add in some places and take away in others. As I go along I am discovering things that I need to explain in the first act. This is also good news because it means I have more material to work with. My hope is once I'm done the script will be around 90 pages. Right now I'm not sure how accurate that goal is but I'm still going after it. By next week I intend to have the first draft finished without revisions. Here are this weeks pages.

Structure - Three Act Structure The three act structure is the most common structure for telling film narrative. The only downside to using this structure is it doesn't tie everything together like the next two. An example of a film that uses this structure is Mad M...

Metropolis Analysis Questions

The Mediator in Metropolis is Freder, but he actually stands for the "heart". In Metropolis there are two basic forms of people. There are the "hands" who are the workers/labor force that keep Metropolis running. They are basically slaves to the machines that are used to run the city. The second form of people in Metropolis are the "heads". These are the people that are the ones in charge. They live in the upper section of the city and spectate the workers to make sure they are still doing there jobs. These people are also often very wealthy and have lots of leisure time to enjoy partying and socializing. The heart is the one who bridges the gap between the hands and the heads. The heart understands that it is important for the workers and the bosses to be on the same level. Without the heart/the mediator balance between the head and hands there will never be peace because one feels superior and one feels inferior. I believe that Fritz Lang is advocating...
