I can't do scripts... I've tried it before, and it just doesn't work for me. I need to use a more freeform approach, so this is what I do:
First, I start with a basic idea for the story. Often, I come up with what I think will be a really cool scene, then build the story to lead up to it. (this is the case for the upcoming third segment of my Joe/TF trilogy). I write down an outline sketching a very broad description of what happens in each scene, then it's time to start taking pictures.
I'll gather the characters and vehicles I need, and if I really have to, I'll create a set (but I prefer to use existing ones like Joe HQ or other playsets I can find). I take the pictures of the characters in multiple poses from multiple angles.
Next I put it all into Photoshop, and this is where I actually come up with the script. I write the dialogue for each panel as I go along, then go back and re-read it all together to make sure it flows smoothly, and to make sure that whenever someone's saying something, I can hear their cartoon voice in my head.
Finally, I put all the panels together onto one page and save the file, then it's ready to upload onto Joedios!
