Marv's script-tips

AVOID answering a question with "Yes or No" Pro's find smart ways to reply. Example "Kill anyone today Curly?" "Day ain't over yet"

Thanks for the tip! What if the character is not very loquacious? Is it also perceived amateurish to use characters that do not have... enough personality to make sentences?

Marvin Willson

All your main characters have to me memorable, if the fact they can't make sentences is part of the story, thats cool. Just make them interesting.

Jac Davyn

Ok. Thanks :)

CURLY- Do women and children count? That's a great answer because it lets you know Curly isn't Mr.Nice Guy.
