    Getting motivated to write

    Writer's block happens to all of us, but when inspiration doesn't come naturally after a while, then it's time to look to other writings for inspiration.

    Introduce me to the basics

    Hey Wyatt, good to see you are getting into the field. First things first - you have to make sure all your ducks are in a row. Don't concern yourself with finding equipment or crew until your script is actually done. It doesn't have to be a final draft, but you don't want to be making drastic...

    I'm posting here today to try and find willing hands for an indie medieval film shoot in Ohio. Preproduction has not officially started yet but there is a complete draft of the screenplay that is going through revisions.
