Clive, I believe the character in possession of the pen is the protagonist for their part of the story. Having said that though, it would be best to see the illness through another character's eyes than just the father's, so the daughter would be a great window into his world. Yes, I do think...

So, back to story development... :) I was struck by Poke's idea of the traveling pen. I have one 'vingette' already sketched out on it. Tell me what you think: The pen makes its way to the home of a young(ish) family. There is a great deal of pain in the family caused by dealing with the...

LOL! Better yet, Indie... "Thanks".

I hate to admit this, but I feel it will add to the discussion. For my last short, I actually used Microsoft Publisher to make the covers. I didn't much like them, but they're serviceable... I've even been complimented on them. Publisher worked better for the back cover than the front, in my...

I too am dealing with SAG right now. Contact your local SAG/AFTRA office. They really are there to help. Do it sooner rather than later, as getting calls returned can be a hassle. It's taken me a week to get a return call (and that's with me calling every other day). We're using a different...

I agree completely about story. Luckily, "The Rapture" has a doozy. Johnny will let that cat out of the bag when he's ready, but we've been in pre-prod. on this for a YEAR. Story mattered a lot, and I think I can speak for the producers on this film that we are very happy with the screenplay for...

Hmm...Youtube huh? thanks Johnny! And thanks for the compliment as well. I didn't freak out because I still know so little about the Premiere system. I was just glad to make it do what I wanted 80% of the time.

Yup, the re-color-corrected version is now up at www.hhhent.com! Check it out. :) Thanks

We should develop a good story. I don't think anyone would dispute that. However good stories take TIME. How long would you (Jack) take to write a feature- a feature that will get out there and BE SEEN? Me, I am all for the slow and steady wins the race approach. We can't set a deadline (Bophe)...

Well at least there's a love story- kinda'. :) I am still working on my pitch for the group.

Cute stuff there. I am a myspace semi-addict. I can quit for days at a time... Really, I can. :) You should check out the "Mann" films by John Osbeck. Some of your sped-up stuff reminded me of his (that's a good thing).

C'mon guys- only three people commented? How about we show Johnny some 'love'?

Hey guys, I have done some more correcting of my color correction on the short. It should be up later today. I'll keep you posted. Last week, we screened it at our local meeting. There were an unusual number of women in the room, and we got a great response. Guess it really is a "chick flick". :)

As to the 'sexy' comment- I meant that the idea didn't grab me and excite me. I didn't mean it in a sexual context. Sorry to confuse. :) I need to know time frame, location, etc. before I could commit fully to being on the shoot, although I am an experienced script sup. and wardrobe & make-up...

Yeah! I am so glad that this is out here now. :) btw- if you guys didn't know about this, Johnny edited this in a little over two weeks (this includes placing CGI shots, sound edit, etc.). I think it 'teases' quite effectively. By way of disclosure, I should remind you that I am one of the...

I can hear Poke now.... See, they're already squabbling- it's a perfect idea. LOL. :) I was gone most of the weekend, and just got back here this morning.... I really hate to do it, but I concur with Spinner, Clive and MediaHero. This idea is just not sexy to me. It could be, especially if the...

There were no black frames that I saw. Although Youtube is not the highest quality in hosting. :) Overall, nicely done. The footage from "bittersweet" still stands out as the best stuff. I loved the Fun.

Another NYTimes article today on Starbuck's movement beyond coffee. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/01/business/media/01starbucks.html?th&emc=th

Bummer, a potential savior of low budget indies bites the dust. Here's the NYTimes link: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/01/business/01revolution.html?_r=1&th&emc=th&oref=slogin

I liked this a lot. Well, well written. :) Actually, the actor was so engaging and funny that the only part I had trouble with was .
