last january as i'm finishing post on my first short i realize that the script i'm working on can't be the first feature i shoot. (lots of characters & locations--including essential scenes on street corners in nyc; a tv show inside the film--all sorts of production tricks that would kill a first-time director.)
so i need a new script. i spend most of january thinking of new-project ideas. totally from scratch--the dreaded what-do-i-want-to-write-about freewrites. who could i write about? (and since i can only have a few characters, this takes special importance--can't let characters drift in and out of their own volition.) and then i get to outlining. really. outlining before writing. it's an amazing idea.
