I'm working on a script for an urban fantasy movie and I wanted some art made for my main character, Howie. Howie's a 27 year old, 5'8 foot tall caucasian man with platinum blonde hair and teal eyes. He'd be wearing a white t-shirt, a baggy powder blue pullover hoodie with magenta accents in the drawstrings and pocket lining, dark beige sweatpants, and blue slip on shoes. There is no deadline for this clmmission, and you can have it in any pose you like.

[IMPORTANT]: I only have a debit card for payment, so I will not be able to pay you if you live in a foreign country and only take payment through Paypal. Please be upfront in your comment how you accept payment and if it works with the limitations I've noted.

I know they don't do remakes anymore, but with there experience with the Purge movies, I can't help but wonder.

I'm looking for someone to make art of a protagonist for an urban fantasy story I'm writing. The protagonist is a 27 year old male wearing clothes reminiscent of the Fairy Godmother from Disney's Cinderella (the original): A light blue hoodie with magenta accents in the lining and hood strings, worn over a white t shirt, beige sweatpants, and blue sneakers. In addition, he'd be holding a magic wand, similar to that of the Fairy Godmother's, by the finger tips of his left hand.

I've been thinking about this lately, and I think about it like this: science is how we answer questions our questions about how the world works, while magic is the wonder we have at the world when we don't have the answer. That's my take on it—different views of the same thing. What's your take?

I had an idea for a short film about Zeus while he was strung out after his first encounter with Typhon. I'd just be writing a script for it, not directing it myself or acting in it, I don't have the means to actually make a short film right now. I'm just posting this to see if there'd be any interest in that.

I've had different ideas for movies, but I struggle coming up with protagonists that are different from each other. I keep envisioning them a cynic who's in the right state of mind, and I that wouldn't work for every idea I have.

Bit of background, I've taken a couple of creative writing classes, but for stories to be read, not watched, and I'm betterwith writing a scene and what's going on that writing what characters are saying to each other. I'm transferring colleges in a few months to major in film, and one of the classes I'm taking is for short screenwriting. But I'm here asking what other resources can I find to help improve in the meantime? I'm reading a book on screenwriting right now, but it's more about pitching and motivation than actual techiniques for screenwriting.

For research on a project I'm working on.

Something I noticed in episodes of some shows I've watched, like Mind Meld from Rise of the TMNT or Knowledge from Teen Titans Go!, is when the episode has characters become smarter through unnatural means, their personality shifts to act more rude or just different from how they usually are. For example, in he 7D episode, Grim the Genius, he wears a smartypants stone around his neck to become smarter, but in addition to being smarter, he acts more rude towards his wife and dismisses her affection, despite him usually being just as loving towards her. One example I've seen of a subversion of this is the Dragons: Riders of Berk episode, The Eel Effect, which showed the twins Ruff and Tuff, sick with eel pox, doing smart things like testing gravity and inventing ice cream, but they still do things in character like talking about dropping themselves off a cliff to further test gravity and arguing over what to call their invention. They only take up two scenes, which is less time than these kinds of episodes usually spend on this trope, but I find that more interesting than the usual attitude shift.

I just never got why this trope tends to just give the character a bad attitude when they're made smarter. Can you think of any other examples?

With the new season out, a big part of the story is Jimmy and Kara's "will they, won't they" relationship drama. I'vs seen a couple of comments on videos talking about how Jimmy fumbled hard by rejecting Kara, and while I'm not saying he's completely in the right for it, I don't think Kara's really at a point where she should be in a relationship. She's being portrayed with a childlike wonder after her redemption, and she's apporaching her feelings toward Jimmy with a childlike way of thinking. While some find her innocence cute, I see it as more problematic for her having the maturity of a child not understanding social norms, and I can see where Jimmy was coming from with how he framed it. On the other hand, Jimmy's not handling it in a healthy way either, just refusing a relationship outright and then getting jealous and trying to look better after he sees her accepting pursuits from other guys by going on dates with other women. I'm just not a big fan of how the show, particularly through Lois, is trying to make it come off like the issue is Jimmy being insecure, when both him and Kara clearly have issues with handling their feelings that aren't being addressed. I know they'll probably end up together as this sort of thing always ends in tv shows with the main teased couple getting confirmed, but I rrally feel like it'd be better off if they didn't, at least until they're both at a point they can actually handle themselves like adults.

Like the hero in civillian mode pretends they're against the hero (themselves) for reasons like they're against vigilantism because that's a common point of contention they've seen with their detractors for example.

To be clear, I don't mean something like a "movie movie" where I just reference a bunch of bad game movies and make poor taste jokes. I mean a more traditional and played straight movie that uses elements commonly found and hated in game movies of that time, as a way to call back to that era in a way that's loving and not cynical.

Like, a trope that's been turned on its head so much that you feel you'd find it more entertaining if they just played it straight this time.

I know that this subreddit is primarily for Dispatch as that's there only game so far, but I don't know where else I could ask this outside of Reddit. Personally, I'd be curious how they'd do a slasher inspired game.

From what I've seen, many slashers tend to take place over from a day to less than two weeks. Am I right or have some gone longer than that? Edit: Also, NO TIME JUMPS!

This is my first post on this subreddit, thought I'd start with a basic question.

As in if they end up making a spinoff game of a shorter episode count than a main season game, which character do you feel has enough story potential to carry that amount of episodes, instead of just enough for one.
