The vibes were pretty high the whole time so I didn't need to!

Still got a couple in for good measure anyway.

Thanks!

Thank you! Even if it's not the best thing ever made, it reminded me how much I miss making things.

I want to do it again.

We're two hours early but...THAT'S A WRAP!

Thank you so much to everyone who followed along on this journey. I recognize I still have to edit the whole thing, but truly feel I did a lot to successfully get this planned and shot on my own.

More to come! (Title kept secret...for now)

Mid production day check in!

Finished our first half way early and getting so much good footage. Working with people you trust and have worked with before really takes a ton of the pressure off.

Will check in again when we finish this evening!

T-MINUS 1 DAY TO PRODUCTION:

This is it folks. Last day to tell myself I'm prepared. I know things are going to go wrong. I know I'll have to adapt, probably under a strict timeline. I know I'm a little crazy for doing this myself

Cannot wait to get started first thing tomorrow morning

#Scriptsky

Thank you so much for reading and for the notes. Glad it stuck with you.

This is still the dream project folks.

Hearing things like this only reassures me I need to get it made.

A quick #Scriptsky #Screenwriting thread on WRITE WHAT YOU KNOW. This is some of the most ubiquitous writing advice but also widely misunderstood. WWYK doesn’t mean only write about the exact things you’ve done. Then there would be no stories about time travel or aliens or dogs playing football.

Couldn't agree more.

The plot thickens. I'm demanding one of you get on writing this story immediately.

Alright folks I'm off to eat some leftover cake from my wife's birthday, watch more baseball and order some blu-rays before tomorrow's day of short film prep.

Merry #Scriptchat to all and to all a good night!

It's gonna have to be a LONG thread. Maybe a documentary in order?....

My actual face upon seeing this picture: 😯

What's a weird, obscure thing that you know?

Like something you know about that would make someone go 🤨

I'd start there.

Okay but that title 🤩

I feel so lucky to get to look at her art every day. Some of it will be featured in my short coincidentally!

One day I'll do a whole thread on here about her.

I have no idea how she did some of these. She could imitate so many different styles.

#Scriptchat

Brilliant word choice here

This sounds like a dynamite premise...might want to revisit that one...

Here's one (of many) that hangs in my living room.

Despite my love for music, Songwriting is something I have never been able to figure out. It's such a great form of expression.

And many yee-haws to you and yours!

Wow. Good for you for getting back at it.

I mainly left for culture reasons (and always preferred improv anyway) but I too prefer the writing process.

Sketch is a great middle ground for this!

I love watercolors and so appreciate those who can make them work.

My late grandmother, a prolific painter, frequently used watercolors and watching her use them is one of my fondest memories.

#Scriptchat

I did about a year of standup and know how difficult that can be to overcome. That first time is such a weird rush and if you get even one laugh you feel like you conquered the world.

Good for you for getting out there.

Been pouring through a ton of film advice books that I have found so stimulating. It really is reminding me just how many resources are out there.
