I either have the name of a character firmly in place before I even begin writing a script - For some reason, I knew I needed to name a female lead "Amanda" at all costs - or I research a name for a character that makes sense for that character's traits....I gave the last name "Vacary" to the...

Congrats! (You're on the East Coast, so you must know Asheville is a great film town.) pronnes

I just PA'ed on someone else's feature for thirteen hours straight this last Sat. and Sun. and agreed to work for free for them as many days as I can for the next two months. So, here are my answers to these questions: PA, since I don't have a lot of experience on set. I've PA'ed, wrangled...

Thanks! Last night at the Metreon in San Francisco, I watched SKY CAPTAIN AND THE WORLD OF TOMORROW with a friend. I half-watched it and half-thought about the rewrites for the short. When we got home, my friend made one comment comparing SCATWOT to DUNE, and I knew how to rework the ending...

Hey, everyone, Today, I had a 4-hour conversation with the ceo of that co. I mentioned above. We hashed out where he wants the script to go and what he and his co. can do for this project. I'm happy to say we're now more than 80% funded, as the ceo has formally extended his co's resources...

Nicely done by all involved! Me like horror. pronnes

Great reference. I'm sending this on to the director of my short. His last short's a bit "fringe" (his word, not mine), so he's not really sure how to pursue a distributor for it....I think it's great and it just won BEST OF FESTIVAL AWARD - SHORT FEATURE at The Berkeley Video & Film Festival...

Hey, Zensteve, I wrote the TZ script as a spec to show I could write in tv format. Alas, both of the shows you mention were cancelled by the time I wrote my TZ script, but I wanted to write an "original episode" that could easily be translated into something else like a feature-length script...

Thanks! I think I recently saw one of your films on cable....It was about several people up in a cabin in the woods. Lots of talk about improving relationships, I recall. I'm working hard on this short, of course, but I'm also gearing up to rewrite a TWILIGHT ZONE spec into a feature-length...

Here here! And you know he had to be a great guy on a personal level, as he was surrounded by many, many people who stuck by him through thick and thin. pronnes

Thanks for the note. We'll likely be shooting on digital with either our dp's equipment or equipment we acquire via the co. courting us. The director was discussing the pro's and con's (mostly con's) of shooting directly onto HD with the ceo of the company discussed at the top of this thread...

Hey, everyone, I just wandered in here via an email indietalk sent the director of my latest project, a short film about a woman living in San Francisco who becomes a superhero. You can check it out at www.thefiveminutestone.com to learn more about the script, cast and crew. Yes, we too...
