Well, I haven't been around in a little while, specially since the birth of my first born almost 9 months ago. In the meantime I was able to finish a short script, which I was hoping to shoot myself, but honestly the more I think about it the more I realize I'm not ready. Therefore I'm currently looking for someone to hopefully take over the script and run with it.
The script/story is a Gabriel Garcia Marquez type of "magical realism" short, where the obvious thing to do is to say, "this can't happen", but by pushing the impossible towards the background of the story, the viewer is more interested in the "everyday" portion of the story.
I have a 16 page script, written in CeltX and I've been letting people read it and the feedback has been positive. I understand positive feedback from your friends and family is somewhat tainted but I'm not sure where else to get feedback.
I was thinking of posting it here and maybe having somebody here take over it. But I would love to be involved in the shooting process, so I can learn a few things, therefore a local person would be much appreciated. I'm located in Cleveland, Ohio and for the life of me, I can't find any local filmmakers. I have looked on Craigslist, this site, Facebook and such and although I found a Facebook page for a local indie club, it was more about watching movies as opposed to making them.
I can say if you like movies like 300 Days of Summer, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind and/or any of the short stories written by Garcia Marquez, I truly believe you will like my script. Or at least the basis of it.
Please pm me or email me if interested in getting a copy of the script. I really would love to get this rolling and make something out of it.
Thanks
