R : Friends, u really wants to know why?
A : Ya, why?
R : Come with me.
(There will be video about his roommate bring main actor to IVCC)(Continue by the talk)
Overally, its gud... gud script... em..juzt tat... i dunno hw to comment thru tis tiny box... haha..wait i see u face to face just tell u...
Good script, now only need to work on the details. However don't worry cos more new and interesting ideas will come when we already have a story frame and start to rehearse. I would like to give some opinions though. In my opinion need to say a bit why the main character dislike utm such as he heard from others that the hostel is lousy, lectures are "cincai".... And also I think that need a a scene to introduce the roommate earlier. Maybe they both first meet in their messy room and introduce each other and maybe got ivcc people help the roommate. This is just suggestion and can think of others. I'll give my opinions if i come to think of new ones. Keep up the good work!
main character and casting all sorted out?
