Dating advice needed for film.

[SergeP]

Hi.

My name's Serge, and I'm currently writing a script for an independent short film that I'm going to shoot and direct quite soon.


It's about an unsocial guy who sits at a computer all day long face-stalking a girl he likes ( That is, stalking her on facebook).

He later gets an unexpected friend, who teaches him all about getting girls and such, is his mentor in such, and helps him to get the girl he likes. Then the mentor dies right before the final party where the protagonist gets the girl he likes.

Anyhow, this gave me a big problem.

I know nothing about hitting on girls.

I've never hitted on or asked a girl out for a date or anything like that. I've never needed. I just sit in the corner and look good, and the girls come to me (once even a 10/10 beauty pageant came to me, grabbed my thigh and said I was "Very weird, but very very sexy").

Anyhow, what kind of tips would this mentor give the guy?

I promise to put this forums name/ Your usernames in the Special Thanks.

I'll tell you what I tell every other noob... Go read the DJ Bible. In fact, maybe you could call your film "Go read the DJ Bible".

Better yet, you could try finding an experienced wingman, learn from him, and base the film on your own experiences.

SergeP. Don't be a hack, bro. Any writer worth his weight would go research the subject. I've spent 8 years reading the DJ Bible and every post here while practicing in the field real world situations. Lots of failures to learn from and now lots of success.

Writers don't sit in a corner and wait for story to happen to them. They research their premise. And when their head is overflowing they carefully structure.

You got one chance with this short. I love the premise. Don't ask for tips. Bury your head and saturate yourself. Hell, its fun flirting and dominating girls. Sitting in a corner is lame. Life is about taking chances.... blah blah blah. You get the idea.

This. Or you can always turn it into a Disney movie.

"Facebook" is a trademark. No one really cares until you make money, but you could still get sued by Zuckerburg...because he needs more money. Make it generic without using the word "Facebook." A social networking site with a blue background is probably ok.
