Dream 2 Create 4 the future of Entertainment. timbottiglieri.com

 Wonderful! A great show! Applause! Chants and shouts of cheer fill the theater, sounds we love to hear, “A Great Show.” “Now go and tell your family we arrived, open your windows and your doors, yell out loud to your neighbors and your friends to watch us, LIVE, on the “AIR, and on Broadway,  and coming soon to a stage in your city.

Just try, write a story, any story, most stories are fairy tales anyway created from our imagination. Write so everyone close-by and far-away can enjoy it. Write about the scenes in your mind, so everyone close-by and far- away can read it. All entertainment is made from dreamers like you and I, Created from our imaginations.  A show of entertainment! A show 4 you and 4 me, 4 television, film, and stage 4 the whole world 2 see.  Whatever it is you dream about everyday. Dreaming is good! That’s brilliance, disguised.  When we create, we inspire 2 create and 4 others 2 awake to the most inspiring, and wonderful dreams of all, yours, mine and  theirs. Be passionate about dreaming, they belong to you, it’s your dream come true the moment you open your eyes, and smile. It can be a dream come true told in a book, across the world-wide-web, a film, a story told through a microphone. You’re an author, a playwright, a scriptwriter.

Dreams are your imagination awakening; unconscious euphoria. Dreaming is an infinite story constantly developing uncluttered in your imagination, it is the invisible gift of the unconscious mind. It’s where your daily playground of fun evolves. Mind dreaming, unleashing unrestricted thought, it becomes alive the moment you allow it to be heard, Its magical, it’s invigorating, it’s inspiring, mysterious, and enlightening.

Creatively writing for situation comedies, drama, and mystery should not be restricted to follow a specific, strict format. The hope is for the dream to continually evolve while you where asleep, your minds world created a story, and now you must capture it, and share it with us. Awakening, the story will sustain life once you commit to it, some will be great, and others will be what you make them to be. Actors will unselfishly perform your script; you possess the vision of the dialogue whispered to you.

Share your dreams in a book, in a show of comedy, drama, mystery and suspense. Share your dreams in a musical, loud enough to seep into the ears, eyes, and the brains of others. Speak your dream to the producers to assist, and contribute to the dream. Patience is a virtue; egos are not, Quality! Somewhere in everyone’s dream is a story worthy of a tale to show and tell. The birth of creativity becomes reality when it produces a smile or frown upon the awakening mind. Than allow the cursor to tap unrestricted. Bunches of tales never fail when ignorance is absent.

 What do you do when the audience stops clapping, silent applause, no more smiles, only frowns? What to do when your shows popularity poops, and your mind struggles with fears of failure, and disheartening tidbits about the franchise are zooming around every imaginable gossip column. Heck! What do they know about your dream? You know what you should do! Dream some more, and implement a change, gradual or not, just dream, easy, unrestricted new life into the franchise. Shows and/or franchises that reveal a state of dust and doom and suddenly drop viewer interest will immediately receive a jolt of life, the fruit for life and survival will be sustained. The storyline will adopt a new tale to tell. That’s fine folks, that’s what you want, out with the dead, in with the new, better yet! Have fun with change, freshness taste good. Put to rest ancient ways of telling tales. Implement character traits faithfully.

Network Television! Gosh! 4 the future  enjoyment of entertainment on earth, and our many years of fun together, how are you ever going 2 win first place when all you ever do is play the same game, the same way in the same playground all the time? Your viewers know your every move! You rely on a predetermined, mandatory game plan that’s specifically designed for every endeavor. Network television should allow for the constant stream of dreams. There are stories written to be read, voices wanting to be heard, and faces wanting to be seen, inspiring for the future life of entertainment.   

 A strict set of rules should never apply when it relates to creative entertainment, a script is never final. One -way is only acceptable on the highways, not in the creative process, it eliminates the free flowing stream of yours and my dreams, and the enjoyable process of workable creative expression. Which often leads to the extinction of someone’s cleverness? I prefer dreams. Franchises that should have had a future, often times disintegrate, taking with them friendships, and jobs. A strict adherence to rules has, had, the potential of eliminating some fine creative franchises. Egos, selfishness and jealousy sink shows, promising franchises never fully mature; ceases to exist after a short season(s), dreams wasted. Ignorance, or ego's, which ever is preferred, expressed to sway direction is a waste of time and money, and the demise of some people’s good intentions. All venues of creative entertainment must allow for constant revision and change, more so now that ever before. The mind is inspiring to entertain; wanting to share. Due to industry egotism, creativity diffuses rapidly.

Electronic engineering allows pioneers in creative entertainment the ease to craft, and share their wears for immediate display. Multiple(s) dreamers can easily converse and rehearse 24/7, allowing for richer creative content. The ability to refine content and deliver it today without delay results in craftier creative entertainment. The theory of storytelling will always be to tell a tale. Storytelling sculptured for television can be cumbersome. The dreamers willingly need to share their dream, writers need freedom to write the dream, directors need to be a-bit like a Jeannie in a bottle and make those hopes and dreams come alive. Producers, release the Jeannie from the bottle of hope, and produce the dream, and actors-oh boy!  Act the dream of hope. Dream 2 imagine the scene. The brilliance is showcased when the dreamers, writers, directors, producers, and actors apply equality time to vision the life of the dream 2 life.  Quality requires patience; time and costs are constraints, creativity dislikes being cramped. When egotism interferes, creativity dies. Writers, directors, producers, and actors require freedom, not a formal, egoistical decaying ancient belief structure. A comprehensive industry wide formatting guide(s), and, or paradigm used repeatedly for development is boring, and wrong. This causes ugh.

Dreaming, let us not interfere with a natural phenomenon; your dream is a scripted story, you dream the dream every day. Similar comparisons you see in comedic dialogue. Think of a stand up comedian. A fine analogy would be a book, a novel, or a story of most any fictional tale, a multiple of dialogue. Often, when television declares a movie based on a novel, often times the novel is by-far superior, right! Why? Because character traits, settings and dialogue were patiently sculptured from a dream, the result is near precise to the dream. The setting of the story in a novel, film or television was from a vision in your mind, awake or while you slept, you dreamed about it, awake, you sat and thought about it.

 Create each chapter and/or episode to the vision. There is an excuse why we are not privileged to finer human imagination. There is a reason, and here it is.

Technology easily allows co-mingling and hugging with peer intelligence. Human behavior is finicky; it yearns to giggle with other human behavior. Jealously frowns upon you and me co-giggling and hugging. Jealously and selfishness seek 2 reap all the credit for the things other people do, for the things you did and for the treasure you seek to uncover. Egos and selfishness spoil potentially fine work, why? Entertainment glorifies. My idea, not yours, I thought of that, not you!

Oh my Gosh, as you can see breeding ground 4 brats.

Clever intervention is necessary, jealousy and egos are not.  Since the golden years of television, many similar ideas are seen reflected in current entertainment. Let’s face it, dreaming is time consuming, ha, some folks sleep and dream, others seem to dream awake. Analyzing and selecting creative works is fun. If your dream is not to ones liking; it’s rejected, ego and jealousy.

 Allow it to appeal to you for what it could become! Yell poor sportsmanship, another waste of time and money from a lack of better and/or poor judgment, and / or ego interference.

Annoying idiosyncrasies out of nowhere suddenly appear everywhere, naturally, “nah,” “intentionally,” yes, jeopardizing your dreams and mine. Jealousy, bratty adults, and / or the reluctance to change, has a sour effect on innovation and sustainable growth in any industry. The discovery and/or evolution of new frontier in entertainment progresses slow. Cable TV continues to slowly pioneer the entertainment industry; one cable franchise in particular is a proven winner of progressive innovation. She adores creativity. The passage from dream incubation to actual television and/or film viewing is always well thought about. Network TV is burdened with too many nuances.

Network Entertainment has a small band of pioneers, this is promising. Breaking away from relying on what others are doing is good. Never intentionally offer something similar, disguise it and release it for a quick buck. The industry is crawling towards discovering meaningful, competitive prime-time entertainment. Except for the creatively rare enjoyable sitcom, and reality show, network TV may have lost some of its competitive edge. Bringing dreams to life delivers freshness, competitiveness, resulting in craftier creative storytelling. The human mind grows the magical ingredients for incredible amounts of imagination. Your imagination is never fully realized or recognized, it’s abstract, indefinable, infinite thing, wonderful!

Creating a situation comedy should be mesmerized on any one(s) concept or viewpoint. One show was a perfect example of perfection, and is arguably histories best ever, all about nothing. The expression of dialogue can veer off in a totally fresh and enlightened direction, creating smaller, or larger spontaneous comedic situations from an already conceived story, as some link is eventually revealed, again about nothing, wonderful!

Dream 2 awaken and tell a story. Ill call them, “The dream-teamers,” of entertainment, and they can come in all sizes and shapes. Daily they should collectively gather and talk the dream. A “dream –teamer” can be Him, Her, you and I. Famine or failure is always a possibility, which is not to say your dream is a nightmare, but, feast and statue are present when there is unrestricted freedom to explore your dream, freedom to push beyond the limits. After all, a fond discovery may be found, climax!

A lack of a risk seems absent in network television. The opposite is true with cable television or film intended for the big screen, there is risk taken with respect to creative movie-making, but there again; the big screen has been known to be a victim of conventionality and similarity, to what preceded its last film.  Obstacles, concerns, and costs are prevalent; any advancement in creative entertainment with regard to scripted TV is now. Cable television is on the cutting edge of unleashing enlightening way(s) of telling tales, many channels are fearlessly brilliant in trying and discovering new ways. Network television can unleash with careful fearless brilliance simply by, incorporating the idea of, “dream-teamers.” If it were not for many people seeking the credit, and allow the, “dream people” to guide the way, and not one’s individual(s) credit.

The journey to get where the illusionist wants to take us can be expressed sneakier, wiser, and cleverer than ever before. The unknown, who, what, and where does not need to walk in the same footprints all the time. How many times have you the viewer voiced a correct ending or sequence of events to a film, movie, or television show while the show or film was still far from revealing its secret. Hollywood is programmed to communicate a story in a similar fashion from the early years.

A fair analogy of network television developing shows beyond the normal can be viewed from watching the shows, PERSON OF INTEREST, MEDIUM, TWENTY FOUR “24,”LOST, Some of which are already extinct. They seek to stretch the imagination. If they unleashed with more intrigue, freedom of imagination and humor, perhaps their screen life could have been prolonged. Scripted shows are on the cutting edge of implementing change, probably due to me encouraging television to be a-bit crafty. Those shows taking the initiative may turn out to be spectacular, and that is encouraging. Shows daring to please the viewer, will be rewarded, dream with patience, tickles, and integrity. We the viewers are fickle, we've come to know what to expect from television entertainment. We the fickle viewer should always be kept in suspense teased and surprised. Simple themes of things can be crafted to seem; funny, sad, mysterious, and inspiring. All dreams have the ingredients to be great if the principles are bold enough to stray from a predetermined paradigm, they are trying, simply not far enough to become truly suspenseful, innovating and inspiring for the future.

Let’s have fun! Cartoons

Cartoons construction consists of simple theories, colorful and clever character illustrations. When crafting a scene(s) for a cartoon, each cartoon character should possess a cheerful personality; include dialogue with smiles, colorful and majestic scenery enticing the viewer adding energy to each scene.   Most of our dreams are cartoons. I know; nightmares are something we will discuss another time.  Your dreams are your intellectual property. Cartoons are a vast playground of endless slapstick, simple short storytelling. Fine creative writing is written with the purpose of capturing interaction of voice and jest among-st the fictitious.

There can be a multiple of dialogues (story lines) encasing the cartoon, or any television and/or film release. I prefer a multiple of tiny tales surrounding the main. Remember the best, all about nothing, fine example, a show or film of any scenario can portray this feature. Cartoons do it all the time. Portrait of scenes creating a short story, the same theory can be found in a book of short stories, and, or a comedian on stage performing his or her act. Everyone is telling a story, the genius is the creator, the mind visions images of what, where, who. The talent of the director is weaving all those visions together, not easy! Everything ties together at the end.

The history of television has relied on the same principles and procedures, utilizing many of the same tools when translating a story. A strict set of rules should not apply, not when the objective is crafting creative entertainment.  To cultivate fiction appropriately needs freedom. Think restless creative entertainment. Failure is fine; something quite good and unexpected usually is derived from it.

Musicals: Broadway, New York City, Domestic and International

Musicals are an act of energy, they’re enlightening, and an awakening display of the purist form of entertainment. Soon after entering the theater, you will be handed a playbill, proceed to find your seat, be quiet, read through the playbill, and enjoy what you’re about to witness. A musical performance, better yet, a musical education of dialogue, song, and dance. Where else can an audience gather and watch professional stage actors sing, dance, laugh, jump, cry, enlighten, and inspire. They rehearse and relate a story tirelessly for weeks, months, sometimes thousands of times during a shows engagement. It’ll all seem so simple, ha-ha. When writing a musical though, it’s  too easy falling into the trap of adding to much dialogue to the script. Many times with a musical, scriptwriters and, or playwrights rely too much on spoken dialogue to convey a point in the story. Silence dialogue, and blanket those words with song. Many fine musicals where lessened some degree by losing sight and sound of song. Too much dialogue has a tendency to slow any momentum the story was building. Song is power in a musical, and patience needs to be a virtue when writing, so that the lyrics express precisely what the playwright is trying to convey. Song is magic in a musical; it will sing the story, the playwright, and or lyricist is therefore a genius.

Familiar Faces

Entertainment  tends to rely on familiar faces, and that’s fine, folks, depending on who’s face it is, it may be a sure bet for an Oscar nomination. Pen a screen gem without using familiar faces involves a bit more imagination. Right folks, how many times have you bought a ticket for the, face? The entry of acceptance to the world of TV / film festivals need not be so daunting. A slight imagination would reveal there’s a hidden gem(s) being performed in the world of TV and film festivals. Some potentially fine entertainment goes untested, not because the tale stinks, but the acceptance of unfamiliarity is difficult to overcome, a collaborated effort on the part of a few to underwrite the mini, to TV or full feature would help. The true test of anyone’s character is to perform outside of his or her comfort zone, or react to an unfamiliar challenge, or character. Isn’t this what the craft of acting is really about, to discover, capture and act on creating the creature of unfamiliarity!

Scripted Shows

During the birth of television, every show was original, they had to be, right! Well, bought to you for the second time, the 2nd birthing of scripted shows, long over due.

Now, more than any other time in the history of television, the pioneers of the dreamer(s) teamers of new shows must come together as a collective team of dream-makers, making dreams come true.  Day- dreamers, and night- dreamers, who bring to life the scenes in a dream. Sounds simple, right, well actually its not! Why is there so much repetition on TV? I dream every night, and so do you! Don’t you? Are you dreaming what I’m dreaming? Probably not! Create to inspire by writing a picture of your dream last night; you will be astonished by the picture, the brilliance of your dream, your tale 2 tell. Indecision is a spoiler of creation; keep it simple, it’s brilliant
