  CAN this time, Clean Air Network Program y'all
  Focus On Film is all on top of it!
  
  We have five instructors out in the field, bringing that special brand of video production instruction to kids in local schools everywhere.  Kids are busy shooting with our new Cameras and Gear and getting all excited about how tough it is to make a movie...
  Results will be 'woven' into a video 'tapestry' by the magical magician of digital post Flimages and presented in CWB at the end of the year.
  
  Stay tuned for the event- you gotta see this one.  Man, it concerns you DIRECTLY!  It's like, the air you like BREATHE!

   well.....

  Me thinks those around me doth protest too much.

  Finished the first draft of 'The Death Loop' and where it is a 'good' script it really needs to be an 'amazing' script.

  I wasn't sure at first if i could 'go there' but after the feedback i now know i was 'on the right page' and will now 'turn it out'.

  It is funny, when you are writing, you get into this little world that is all your own and sometimes it is impossible to tell if others reading what you have written are with you - in that same world you are in.  But i think i have found a way to remedy that.  It is about that sweet spot when i can feel it working:  i act and react as though i am the characters.  Then i am speaking from a place of truth.  And that always works.  Like I would try to do as an actor... but with the written word.

  B said that as he read the first draft, he felt the world around him (i'm paraphrasing, okay?) and that at the end he felt his emotions rise.  But i want more.  And so I am taking the characters- taking some of them i didn't bring on the full ride, taking some of them hostage, and i am going to break them open and reaveal them to themselves.

   

  I hope

  I say:  get my butt off the internet, and get back to my own little world- the head movies that make my eyes rain (if you get that reference , you are truly okay in my book
