The way it's formatted right now there's 24 pages, but there should be a lot more if I make it look like a proper script. So I better be quite a long way through the plot. And I think I am, except for it changed so many times I'm not quite sure which one I'm writing.
I know it's currently a bit rubbish.
Once it is finished once I can figure out which bits are a bit rubbish.
Probably the entire scene I just wrote for a start, but that's not the point
... I know, these posts, so interesting...
... I should do another transcript or something. But new story is far more interesting.
ETA: I reformatted and I have 30 pages in script format. I threw a rock at them on page 23. That's half way through the plan. My sense of script shape is apparently winning.
So now I have 15 pages left to finish? Ah. Okay... What have I got left to do... unlock two doors and get everyone out of there? And have a big argument about politics. Huh. That sounds like it could fit.
I think I'm finding myself disatisfied with how much I can't set up in a single episode. I know tons about all these people but the viewer will not.
I also will have to go back and work on that 'make people want them to survive' bit. At the moment I would still airlock the lot of them. Bit of a problem.
