Hi all
First post here, so please bear with me if this question has already been asked a million times before!!
I'm currently either redrafting or rewriting the second draft of my screenplay, and as I'm a bit of a perfectionist and a freak for details, I wanna get this right:
My first draft was 170 pages, then I whittled it down to 120 and called that my second draft. This was consequently revised a week later, so the draft I'm working on now (over 6 months down the line after deciding to take a break from the script) is basically Draft 2, Revision 1.
Right now I'm working on it again - no major structural changes as yet, but a lot of minor details, dialogue, and some actions, as well as outright cutting bits and pieces from some scenes, but no WHOLE scenes - and I'm wondering if I should call this Draft 3 or Draft 2, Revision 2?
I know in the bigger scheme it doesn't REALLY matter, and that I'm a stickler for the details (and I know the devil is in them! ) and for me it's the tiny little details that make the biggest differences when it comes to the endgame.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this!
