Word choice matters when localizing a #teleplay or #screenplay. Localization of such a creative work should preserve and convey the experience and nature of the #story, #plot, and characters.
Yes, I notice when captions are more interpretations than verbatim translations for languages I understand. With captioning on such productions, there are occasions to learn helpful English words I might not otherwise encounter — words like “scree” and “transhumance”.
If your TV show or movie has a character say, “keep your phone on and charged,” but earlier you had a character find a bunch of cell phones hidden long-term in a hidden wall compartment they could turn on and they’re charged, you broke your world.
Either phones need charge or they don’t. 
I found myself doom scrolling on youtube. So I stopped, put on Elton John's Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, and started working on a new #screenplay.
If you can't name the first woman to fly solo around the world, this post is for you:
Found another old box of archived papers full of my attempt to write the #screenplay "Three-Eight Charlie" between 2002 and about 2009.
Jerrie Mock was the solo pilot, becoming an "Earthrounder" in her 1953 Cessna 180 "Spirit of Columbus".
In this box was a July 1964 copy of Flying Magazine covering her flight.
1,000s of hours (and $$$) later, I never could sell the project to Hollywood.
Researching for a screenplay.
Did you know the Royal Canadian Air Force has fighters that have a radar cross section from the front that may be comparable to the F-35’s stealthy cross section, and have a combat radius of > 300 miles (~482km)?
Did you know they have stand-off munitions that can allow them to strike targets from more than 80 miles (128km) away?
Did you know Washington, DC is less than 380 miles (612km) from the Canadian border?

What I love about the Fediverse.
I now have another subject "bookmarked' for a rainy day - #screenplay #scriptwriting .
It’s been years since I wrote a screenplay/script. Maybe I should. No, I’ve neither published of produced any of them.
Just worked with a writing coaching client, and applied some of Aristotle's Poetics to a half hour comedy pilot, and we gained useful, actionable insights. Very old school and very cool.

What is a movie that you wish existed?
I just printed out the first 50 pages of my new work-in-progress #screenplay. It feels good to see my ideas taking shape in screenplay form finally after many fits and starts and many pages of notes and more notes. These printed pages will give me a chance to now mark them up with corrections and better (I hope) ideas. I always feel most alive when I'm doing creative work.

- Can you override the servers and place a new president in power?
- A coup? Are you suggesting a coup?
- Is it possible?
- I could write a reboot sequence and shut down the entire system and at that point, you could encode a new president, yes.
- Then that is what you will do.
