Need an outline, STAT!

I wrote as far as I had in my script, which was basically setting up the premise. Page 13 is a good page to introduce the villains, right? Need an outline, STAT! On the other hand, I’m hearing character voices quip, which is a good sign, script-wise. And the...

What I need.

What I really need right now is a Hollywood Creative Directory. I haven’t done anything with Dot Com since I heard back from Austin Film Festival during the big move, and it’s time I change that. Maybe this weekend I should cuddle up with Max Adams’...

Scripty goodness!

Script printed out and bound in #5 Acco brads with cardstock covers as per script custom and Austin Heart of Film rules. I picked a tasteful speckled grey cardstock, for those who care. Now I need to write a two sentence synopsis. Oh, the evil! I loathe summaries!...
