Here’s a scenario: you and your CW partner concept together, come up with say 5 or 6 solid ideas between the two of you. CW then goes off and writes a few scripts—none of which reflect the ideas you brought to the table. How do you approach this?
A) Ask them first why those ideas are missing and then ask them to take a stab at putting the other ideas to paper.
B) take a stab writing the idea on your own and ask them to take a look and provide thoughts
C) other suggestions?

If you two agreed on the 6 solid ideas, I don’t understand why suddenly the CW writes an entire different script? I suggest you go for approach A. They might have misinterpreted what the idea is and you both had a different vision for it. You two are a team, work on the ideas together.

After about 18 months of hustling, I’ve been offered my first AD role. My background is in engineering so for what feels like forever I’ve been building (and rebuilding) my book with creative work and it’s finally paid off 🎉

Thank you!
