Question

[gambit924]

I just asked a question in another forum, well the film forum, and the question is, should I try and make the show I had planned, or should I just convert the script I have to a comic script? I am asking this question because I would like to make the show, but there seems to be no short road to take it on. So would it be easier to get a comic published or a film made? That is the question. I already have a script written out (long-hand actually) so soon I'll be ready to start typing. What do you all think I should do?

See my post in the film forum. (Short answer: go for it.)

If you decide to go the comic book route, please do your research into the comic industry and keep in mind a few things. A comic script is not the exact same as a film script. Also, though the costs of creating a comic are lower than a film or tv series and probably less of a hassle, it's not necessarily easy or cheap.

Good luck with your script.

Seems this would be the easier route, not that I am saying it is easy, but it is easier than attracting the eye of a producer at this point. Problem is, I wrote just about the complete sixty pages for a show script. Is that too long for the first part of a graphic novel?

The page count of a graphic novel can be as long as you want it to be. There's no limit on length, but it should be at least 48 pages long.

Depends on what you mean by 'first part' and what you're going to do with your GN. Are you going to published it? Most GN are about 200 pages long. The thinnest GN is 70 pages, a very very thin book.
