Rough Draft

The hard part is over, the rough draft has been written.



Now I get to sit back and wait for feedback from my teachers and fellow students.

I gave a copy to Tyler--the guy who pitched this idea to me--as well, so I hope he likes it. Or, at least, can find something in it to like and give me positive feedback in order to help get the script to a place that we're both happy with it.

I haven't actually read it yet, but plan to tomorrow morning...once I've taken 24 hours to try and forget about it.

My grad review is on August 8th, so I don't have much time to make revisions before I have to give them a copy to read. So, I hope the rough draft is passable, since I'm pretty sure that's the one they're going to get. :/

Now, it's time to gear up and get ready for the next few months, cause this is what's going to happen:

1. I'm going to graduate from Brooks.

2. I'm going to England to visit my brother.

3. I'm going to dive into pre-production for "A Permanent Mark," a short film that I already have some funding to shoot--which is exciting--and scary, because the last time I tried to shoot something it kind of fell apart.

4. I need to get a job, either directing, or editing, or selling cars, or whatnot.

5. I need to get the script for "The Projectionist" in a shootable and sellable shape, so that I can get funding to shoot it too.

And 6. I need to continue to write every day.

I think if I strive for these things, I'll be paving the right path.

Well...I'm done boring you.

Cheers,
