I'm rewriting a script of mine for a producer. I always felt the script was a little soft -- too much travelogue, not enough story.

So, it's back to index cards. Just because you've written the whole script doesn't mean index cards can't help. It's hard to restructure a script with script pages. Even if you have that much floor space, you can't physically see the whole thing. So I generate index cards and start marking them up and moving them around...
