Announcing Pachekipedia! / Progress: Scripting

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

Another (mini-) milestone passed!

I finished scripting Bolt: 6:59 last night. What that means, basically, is I wrote down all the dialogue—which wouldn’t fit in the thumbnails—in a separate text document. When I did that, I realized I only had 47 pages of material, not 48. Woops! I took that as an opportunity to flesh out a scene that needed a little more space. So I’m back up to 48 pages.

You may have noticed a little button at the top of the page that says “Pachekipedia.” Now I’ll be honest: up until this morning I didn’t really know what that page was going to look like. I had a vague idea for a mock-Wikipedia page full of stuff I made up. Just words I made up, or a fictional country, stuff like that. Or a wiki of my characters—you know, in the style of the Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe. But this morning it hit me. I decided—well, why don’t you see for yourself.
