I always have wondered on how much detailed a comic script has to be, just to appease an editor? Doing each time "close up on", "medium shot", "reverse shot" is too sterile to me. Then again, I don't think an editor would appreciate gigantic amount of details, unless of course, that script comes from someone like Alan Moore.
I think that changes with every editor. I tend to write my scripts mostly towards the artist, if I know who the artist will be. If I don’t know who’ll draw it, I tend to over-explain things in a script, which is often a fault of mine.
