This week on Binky’s Blog, Binky shows us how to write a proper script using nothing more than Microsoft Word. A video accompanies this blog.
“You don’t need an expensive or special software to write a proper script with the proper font and formatting. Of course, some of these software format the script for you, so you save time, but you can easily format it while proof reading it and you don’t spend that much more time than necessary on formatting it. It also saves you money as it can easily be done with Microsoft Word.
Font. The most commonly used font is COURRIER. Not Courrier New, there’s a difference. I used to gets mixed up with the two at first. Size 12. A good trick is to keep your alignment to LEFT, select COURRIER 12 and write out your rough/working script from here.”

This week on Binky’s Blog, Binky explains the importance of Business Cards while giving advice on deciding a design for those who don’t yet have business cards and are in need of inspiration.
“People are always saying that first impressions matter. And it’s true. But a first impression is not just walking into the audition room or interview, it’s not just the hand shake or CV and head shot, part of first impressions are business cards. I just printed a new batch of business cards this week and feel compelled to share what I know of their importance, and how one might want to design them, to anyone without a business card. Like I’ve said in the past, I’m not a graphic artist, I had these done by someone I know, but being an artist, I can help you get inspired. Because let’s face it, what are you going to put on it, what colours are you going to use, what font. It’s all important because this is what people will look at and it has to convey who you are, what you do and make them want to contact you. It’s how they’ll remember that conversation that occurred on the street when they met you.”
