Really enjoyed it, Neko! Looking forward to more later on!
Glad you enjoyed it! I plan on getting a few more soon. A lot of them will tie in with things to consider when scripting- so it all builds on the writing side of things as well as the art side. It's a weird medium to write for. xD

I found the examples really helpful in understanding how a script should be written, as well. Nice one, Neko! You're really good at writing tutorials! :) I hope you do more!
Yup! Writing for a comic, TV, or movie is a lot different than a novel! You have to be able to communicate what you want the viewer to see to the other people working on the story (artist, cinematographer, etc.). You have to consider that you're using a visual medium where most of the information you give to the audience is either dialogue or in the art/scene. In a book you can write 'the curtains were blue' but you can't do that in visual mediums- you have to show it! And if blue curtains are important, you definitely need to say something in the script so the artist/set dresser includes it!

It's not AS big of a deal when you're the artists AND the writer, but it's still good to have it written down. I find I do better when I fully script than I do when I just jump in. xD
