Uploaded Forms / Re: Line Notes (for going "off book")
« on: Mar 04, 2008, 01:52 am »
I loath line notes in a big way, so anything I can do to automate them I'm all for.
This is my newest attempt at a line note form. It's a little labor intensive at the beginning to enter the script, but after that, the list automatically populates all of the information based on a line number. Even keeps track of how many times that line has been missed.
Entering the script actually didn't take me that long because it was sent to me as a .pdf file and I could copy and paste all of the text into a word file where I formated it as:
[character] [tab] [line]
Then copied it into the excel file.
I have numbered every line in my paper script for reference.
I haven't used this yet (it's for an upcoming show). My plan is to select the date, print it as a pdf and email it to each actor. Saves on paper too! Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
