I know it is a good rule of thumb. Secondly, I know that it is a standard metric that is needed.
However, I can't help but wonder, as I read through my script (draft #2), that some scenes, battle for example, might actually be a lot longer.
Yes, I know that some pages will probably be longer than a minute and some shorter and that they will average out to approx. 1 minute. And yes, I know it's not really my problem or worry--it is the director's.
Yet, I still ponder the 1 page= 1 minute rule.
And yes, I know I'm thinking way too much into this (pls don't bash this newbee too hard).
