Hi Everyone....

Great to find this group. Looks like lots of interaction and inspiration and experience.

About me... I've written some fiction over the years - but I've yet to try my hand at writing for film.

I got turned on to the 48Hour Film project, and I'm hoping to get on one of the many teams, as a writer / actor.

Someone at the SD Film Consortium mentioned Celtx - so I have that now and I started trying to write out a fun short film idea - that popped into my head. I got one scene down - but I realize I need to learn the whole 'how to' and 'structure' part of screenwriting.

It's sure a whole lot different than prose.

I'm hear to learn, complete that first short script, and hopefully be a useful contributor to one of the 48Hour film teams in July 2013.

Celtx is awesome.

Structure is pretty important, too, yup.

So what's the idea you're working on?

Hi Zensteve...

Thanks for replying - I've moved my detailed response (what I'm working on - and help with the logline) to the Screenwriter's section.

Preview....(It's a fantasy romcom with a little mermaid - or should I say, merman action?)

Hello and welcome

I am in southern California as well, near San D, as it goes. I hope you learn a lot from this forum. I'm pretty sure you will.

And I hope you get that position on one of the teams you mentioned!
