    I use my intuition to make story - lines. The story - line is created first. Then its shown to Copilot. Copilot writes, writes and writes, and I edit. Then, I let Copilot edit. And then, I slowly take over the editing process and rewrite the whole thing slowly. Like real slowly. Slowly until everyone forgets I wrote it. Then it´s time to finish the editing process. I make the characters and the story concept and know how to finish it but prefer to outline their passions and main interests first, until nothing remains which had originally been written by AI. All has been superseded by the original creator. That way you cannot tell the difference, no unknown website with questionable advise on how to write a script involved.

    Yep, seems like a total racket tbh. Someone's making a lot of money off of desperate writers and people wanting to get in the industry.

    Have you found any trust worthy places to submit?

    So they scamming. Thanks for the video. I will not be submitting. Yeah what’s the point of submitting to a person who doesn’t even work in the industry. Who isn’t a producer or in contact with the producers or directors.

    And a lot of "writing contests" for aspiring screenwriters are also scams. You pay $30-100 just to submit your screenplays to "industry professionals" only to find them asking for another $70 for "coverage," which is almost always boilerplate response putting almost every screenplay at about 50% with no real feedback.

      Yes in the end any Artwork/script you create is YOUR ARTWORK, so don't go around asking "or Paying" other people for their opinions on your work. Find people who like your work, respect it and want to help you produce it.

      What you fail to realize is the reality of STURGEON'S LAW. This maxim dictates that 9O% of everything is shit with only about 1O% of anything produced having true utility and longevity. And this maxim applies to EVERYTHiNG in life, not just entertainment.
      Is HOLLYWOKE full of bullshit gatekeepers who don't know their ass from a hole-in-the-ground and only acquired their position due to nepotism? YE$!
      Does that mean there are no true talents in the industry? NO! Of course there are true talents.
      Does this also mean true talents never break into the industry via their own whiles or outlets like the Black List? NO! Of course there are novices who break into the industry via the Black List and/or screenwriting competitions. It's just that MO$T novices who submit scripts are talentless and will never be talented. Ergo, the percentage of industry breakthrough stories will be even lest than Sturgeon postulate.
      To summaries: MO$T people don't have the talent or fortitude to succeed in creative industries. And they NEVER will. They are simply dreamers, not doers.

    I think if you make an 8 or higher is when you get contact info and get contacted. Many experiences explained on Reddit. Don’t give up!

    Bro, you invested $$$ on a site you don't understand the process of, then spent all this time making a YT video to complain about it, rather than fix your script & that's wild. The readers are supposed to be anon, they provide a logline from their experience reading it, they didn't change yours & all 3 reviews say the same...your dialogue sucks, the plot is all over the place & it reads too "straight-thru". And I never even read your script. The intent is not supposed to be an easy launchpad for production, it's literally an industry critique on your presentation so you can take your notes, improve your script & get it production-ready to shop. This mindset is crippling for you. Brush up on dialogue theory, fill out that plot & line the sequences up, you'll get it. TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO GROW!!! Also, the productions from The Black List are from this site. They take the best scripts of the year, that scored the highest, which make up the annual black list, and choose from that.
