Life of Radio More Scripting

There has been more progress on the script this week then there was last week. The intro to the documentary has been written, interview segments have been planned out, and the subjects that I want to cover are being put in place one by one. There is a lot to cover in one script; anyone who has ever done any sort of script writing in the past will tell you how much time and thought is needed to make a good script. Scripting and even writing in general is something that should not be taken lightly, as it often makes or breaks a project.

 I'm still thinking of some things to add to the script at this very moment, as I feel my writing could always use some improvement. I've mentioned before how I wanted to incorporate both elements of history, and details about working in the field of radio. It has become obvious to me that by the end of this script working in radio is going to be the focus of the script, with history only having a minor role. It is important to know what it is you want to talk about in your script, and not to put in things you don't need; it will only lead to your script being a cluttered mess of writing.

Know your topic, and keep the main focus on it. Writing is not an easy task, but with enough thought put into it, I know I will finish this script and make it at least a decent one.
