Sometimes, I would watch the Oscars and Tony Awards. Mostly, the recent ones would always show the nominations of the best writers or scriptwriters.

And when they show a scene from that particular movie, they would present the actual script of how the characters in the film do so. And I would watch who won them. Their speeches would dedicate everything they thanked to their families, their friends, and their team.

It makes me think.

What would it take for me to be at the Oscars one day? But I still want to do what I want to do. My Mother presented me to writers like Issa Rae and Shonda Rhimes, who are spectacular and Issa Rae, who relied on YouTube to develop their shows and then wrote for them. Show, then making her own show on successful TV Platforms. Shonda Rhimes created numerous shows, especially when it comes to Queen Charlotte, which I watched before I watched Bridgerton. My Mom loved to watch Scandal, and I didn’t even pay mind when I was a baby until now. The emotion, how fluent it is.

But getting straight to the point, as I watch shows, I pay a lot more attention to how they were filmed, the lighting, cinematography, the script, the audio, and the camera angles. I put all of that on my head, especially the script. The name is in all caps, and the emotion is in parentheses. All of these are in my mind. As I write my own script (which I’m currently practicing), I imagine the scene unfolding, and I type it down.

And when it comes to watching children’s movies I watched when I was little, I imagine, like how in the world did this group of writers come to terms with this? The SpongeBob SquarePants movie was released in 2004. I watched it when I was little, but now that I’m older, it still makes me laugh. The steps to create a show, what I think of it, first script, proofreading, meetings, then recording the scene through voice acting, followed by storyboards, then the lengthy part, animation, and finally, release.

But as I researched the process of making a movie or television, I came up with the following:

1. The Idea
2. The Script.
3. Storyboard
4. Cast and Crew
5. Location (for live-action)
6. Filming
7. Post Production

All of these processes made me realize how much effort they put into television. All they need to do is ensure the audience is impressed and engaged and then support them.

dang, respect.
