So, we’ve heard the stories of part-time actors and actresses waiting tables while waiting for their big break. They’ve gotta put food on the table right? What better way to do this than actually serving food?
I would be lying if I hadn’t contemplated that path in life. You know, actually doing something on the side while waiting for a chance to accomplish something in what I truly love. I do love films, and film-making, and I have quite a bunch of ideas..
Ideas are worthless, though, someone told me. ‘Tell everyone, tell anyone!’, he says. ‘Without implementation, your ideas are worthless.’
I’ve never had an editor. I’ve never had someone giving me a focused review, an unbiased thought. I throw my ideas and writing into the world before me and I receive hollow pats on the back and nothing.
So today, I present to you one of the first scripts I wrote. It was one of my earlier ones; not very fully-fleshed out. I had first, second, and third-hand experience while writing it. It was for a three minute short film competition about a year ago. So trusting that the blogosphere isn’t full of people who’d like to dickmove me and totally steal my script and my lines, I’m unleashing my script into the wild. Please let me know what you think.
