You see, hear, smell, touch, and feel everything through words. You should even feel your balance and inner sensations just by reading a script.
Be it in a script or in the early stages of notes, describe as much as you can. It’s better to have more to work with later, and you can always narrow it down in the process. Personally, I like to draw scenes out to help submerge myself into a piece. Working with your senses you can help others do the same when they’re looking at or even just reading your film and or writing.
Describe it as if you’ve never thought about the idea. Like you’re walking into a completely foreign place, because that’s what everyone else will be doing when they see your work

first drafts are for making it exist
second drafts are for making it functional
third drafts are for making it effective
