Webmasters / Re: Mark Zuckerberg Commends Jobberman Founders As Internet.org Free Basics Launches by YoungWriter(m): 12:00pm On May 14, 2016 |
There are plenty of organisations and websites that help Americans looking for high-paying jobs. You don't hear about them in Nigeria because they aren't useful to us. Also, the level of unemployment over there isn't low. Why do you think they want illegal immigrants deported? I'd add it isn't as bad as ours, though. Tolexander: |

Briareos: This helps a lot. Thanks, boss. But I have got a question about finding a mentor, though. Do you have any tips on how to find one considering a lot of them are sort of always busy? |

TV/Movies / ELI5: How To Become A Scriptwriter by YoungWriter(m): 8:41pm On May 06, 2016 |
My request doesn't get any clearer than the subject, but I'd like to expand on it here for those of us who aren't familiar with internet acronmys. ELI5 means "Explain like I'm 5". It's a broken English which means to explain something to somebody thoroughly. Ok, so here we go... I, been a guy who grew up with a strict parent who were also abusive, who made sure I never enjoy the best part of my teenage years, unfortunately turned out to be a little ignorant about many things especially about how to become a Scriptwriter. Becoming a scriptwriter, to me, isn't as simple as inking down your story. What makes one a scriptwriter is after you sell your screenplay, or so that's what I meant by 'a scriptwriter'. In order words, by my definition, a scriptwriter is a person who had sold at least one screenplay. It's obvious that in order to sell a screenplay, you have to ink it down first. A person with half a brain probably knows that, too. Thus, I'm not requesting for such obvious answer. What I want to know is, suppose you wake up one day and then decide you want to become a scriptwriter going by my definition, what are the most effective steps you'd take, the most effective things you'd do, until you sell your script? Would you find a mentor first? Or would you head to a movie school first? Download some software instead? Would you copyrighted your script even before you find a buyer? I can write a screenplay, but after that I don't know what to do next. I need your help, bosses. |

I'd appreciate it if anyone in the house could help me with a list of websites and/or institute that offers to teach Nigerians how to write a Nollywood movie script. |
