Holiday Horror…

December 17, 2013

I wrote another short today that I just had to get out called Holiday Horror. It’s creepy! I’m not sure if I’ll make this one cause it’s super dark and twisted. It’s more fitting for Halloween. Now, I’m in the mood for something lighter. Funny how that works. So I hope to shoot a quick […]

Fantastic Sound…

December 16, 2013

Playground’s temp score is in place, and it’s amazing! Brad worked on it this weekend and finessed the cut, scoring it to some great beats. When Isabella throws out her energy blasts, the sound effects are so real. It’s truly remarkable that this whole thing was crafted in five days from the time we started […]

Feature Budget…

December 14, 2013

I worked on the budget for our feature Pieces in Bloom today. I figured out two versions. One is if Brad could work full time on Post and one is without that added expense. Either way, it’s going to take funding to pull this off. I’m glad I have the financial details worked out, and […]

Tweaks…

December 13, 2013

Last night Brad polished the cut of Playground. We are tweaking the edit and putting in temp music for now. I spent my night tweaking Pieces in Bloom. A script is like an edited sequence in that you can keep tinkering with different parts, changing dialogue, adding more action, etc… until it feels right. My […]

Late Night…

December 12, 2013

Every night is a late night, and it’s worth it because the script looks really good. It’s 115 pages as of now. I’ll go through it again in the morning and see if there is anything I can chop out. Then I’ll pass it off to others for feedback as I start budgeting and working […]

Everything’s going really well with the rewrites on Pieces in Bloom. It’s all coming together, and the stories are so entertaining. I’m excited to have others read it and give me feedback as well. Brad and I will decide on the final title after he reads the current version. I will be holding auditions in […]

Busy Day…

December 10, 2013

Today was a hectic day. We are juggling several projects at the moment from Playground, to Parallax, to my feature Pieces in Bloom. I am on the final story now, and then will begin the budget. The more I look into SAG, the more the budget swells, but the cost could be offset by investors […]

Pieces in Bloom Original Version…

December 9, 2013

The original version of Pieces in Bloom is the one I want to go with. This is the feature as five stories back to back in the same city with Opal as the thread throughout. I feel like they have more power when they are told as they were originally written. Chelsea and Davenport’s story […]

Parallax

December 7, 2013

Tonight I completed the first draft of Parallax, my Sci-Fi pilot I have been developing for the past month. It’s been an fantastic experience, and a real treat to write. Parallax is a story full of opportunities for world-building. What I love most about Sci-Fi is it’s capacity to open doors to a whole universe […]

Second Draft…

December 6, 2013

Pieces in Bloom is mixed together. I did a rewrite today that closed the gaps and made the story come together. I’ll give it another read tomorrow after I get some sleep. I’ve been so busy I haven’t had much time to fit sleep into my schedule. I like the five stories back to back, […]
