As much as I was surprised to hear of Iron Man’s improvisational methods, it also kinda of explains why the movie was so successful.
As it is imperative to have an idea of what you want, it is not so important to try to figure out exactly how it will all happen. Focus on the end result. What is the feeling you wish to acquire, what is your motivation? Who is the main character in this film we called life, what is she all about? What type of person is she, what type of lifestyle does she live? What adventures does she encounter, and most importantly, how do these events make her feel?
While dealing with the universe, you don’t really want to add resistance to attracting what you want by trying to write a script. You hinder great possibilities by thinking you know what’s best by not allowing the other “actors” in your film to perform from motivation.
There are a myriad of ways to tell a single story. The best way to create the best story ever told is to set the tone then improvise based on that feeling, that vibration. Figure out how you want to feel through out this film then go with the flow while REMINDING yourself each time what your motivation is.
If you’re reading this today and are stuck in the place of not knowing where to go or knowing or what you want, try thinking of it as a movie. You are the main character and who determines the characteristics and motives of this persona that greatly effects the plot. Find your motivation, tell your story. What will would you like to have happened in your film that demands at standing ovation once the credits roll?
