Writing for the screen

[McTenzington]

I'm a filmmaker, so naturally I write. I've written and directed 2 shorts so far and I'm going to be filming a third that I didn't write (but helped with the story in the writing stages), and I'm currently developing a western and doing research for a holocaust film that I'll likely make in the distant future.

Coolies. I'm keen to produce The House Call, since it would cost almost nothing to make, but I don't so much as own a video camera right now. I tried begging on to the local university's film program, but they never got back to me.

Hmmm...I needed something to read. Thank you. I'll offer some constructive criticism if I have the patience to read all the way through (I usually don't, but I'll press on!)

Who...are you talking to? Me? If so, you need to tell me which one(s) you want and where to send them.

And honestly, Jedi, you picked the worst possible one. Lockdown is in such crap shape, I probably shouldn't have even listed it.

Oh, oops. I'd love to see Three Children

Still need an email addy to send it to. That'd probably be best shared via PM (unless you have a public box).

That one's just a first act. It's 25, 30 pages, thereabouts. Probably wouldn't take you 15 minutes to read. It's also pretty early in the revision process, so it'll be nice to get feedback on it.

Alrighty. Well I love a good psychological thriller, and Nicholas seems to be just that by the description, so I suppose I'll have that instead.

[SheSaidSheSaid]

That one is in much better shape. Very close to ready for feedback.

[GreatJedi7]

Alright, cool!

Kerr-aazzy busy last week at work, so I'm quite late sending these to you two. Sorry about that. I did make a few edits in the once-(more-)over just now, so I feel good about waiting a little. Specific remarks for each accompany the emails. Enjoy!
