    watch Alabama Shakes - "Gimme All Your Love"

    Thanks for taking a look at it and the feedback! I appreciate it. Probably the biggest thing that we struggled with was hitting home the idea of abusive relationships - that the driver is in one. Did you guys catch that?

    watch Cookie Monster (2015) - Dark Comedy Short

    Thanks for the kind words. And I can definitely agree with you guys on the color grading and the camerawork. About revealing the woman being the mom, I intentionally wanted to make it pretty clear. Did you mean when all three are at the door?

    Actor with Gigantism

    That is true. I can always find a guy that's 6-7 feet tall and find short actors to make it seem like he's 8-9 feet tall. Of course I'd have to make the atmosphere miniature too. Any other suggestions?

    Actor with Gigantism

    Hi there, I have a screenplay that I would like to produce, but it requires a very tall man, namely 8 feet tall. Of course, with technology and how it's filmed, there are ways around finding such a tall man, and rather "faking" it. What are your thoughts on the subject? How would you go about...

    Intern Asking for Help

    I know what you mean, but I know it won't piss him off because he's the one that suggested that idea to me.

    Intern Asking for Help

    Thanks for the replies - I understand. Now is it a good/bad idea to ask to do menial, free work (scanning papers, delivering mail, etc.) for them? The reason why I wouldn't mind doing this free labor is because, like Alcove said, I can learn a lot from osmosis. Is that question still too...

    Television Spec Question

    I understand that it is probably essential to write a tv spec for a tv series that is currently airing in order to get a job in that industry. I am currently an underclassmen in college and I was just wondering if writing a spec now is a waste of time (seeming that by the time I get out of...
