Had a dream I was on location filming a project with no Hair & Makeup team, no Assistant Director(s), no Sound Department, and no camera package. Would not recommend.

ok look good things might be happening but I’m not going to risk it and tell you dinguii about it because the second you say this stuff out loud it evaporates so you have to hold it in your mouth like a squirrel in autumn and cherish it and nurture it and keep them cheeks shut ok

the truth of every award in filmmaking — of course — is that all our disciplines are interlinked and intertwined and if it ever looks like one of us did our job to perfection it is simply and truthfully because everyone did their job to perfection and that is the beauty of it all

I think saying “I am available for representation and staffing” is a lot like saying “I am available to date supermodels” in that it doesn’t really hurt to say it but the act of saying it does very little to make it happen But maybe you’re just what a supermodel is looking for!

writing hack: instead of thinking in terms of beginning / middle / end, instead experiment with purely thinking about your story in terms of setup / payoff [this is advanced technique]

your fear feeds them, pointing and laughing and then getting back to the work of getting them the fuck out—whatever your piece of that is—shrinks them. the vibe is “shut up, weirdo, this country wipes its ass with a better class of dictators than you”

Spent the morning diving into another masterful script by @scotterybarn.bsky.social "our lady queen of los angeles" is one the most inventive stories about the way we pursue our dreams and the obstacles reality puts in that path. Scott is undoubtedly one of a kind. #Scriptsky #SpecScriptShoutout

a quintessential piece of American media. Cross-generational. Cross-medium. A tribute to our artistic royalty. A singular television event; a tribute to this strange little genre that carved itself out. Maybe one last talent show put on with the hopes it might save our town.

there’s always micro-conflict in movies, and that’s lovely and great, but really here’s the only macro-conflict you’ll ever need: —where is this all going? —what does it all mean? If you can get the audience to care about both of those, you’re doing the thing.

On the morning he is released from prison in New Mexico, an ethical criminal is recruited by his scheming ex-girlfriend to perform a daring bank robbery in Texas at 4:45pm that same day. For forty million dollars. Split 4 ways. It's simple. It's easy. It's quick. It's clean. But it has to be today.

Finished the new script at 3:33 AM PST. It’s the best thing I’ve ever written. I say that every time, but this time it’s true. It’s about American Spirits, Manifest Destiny, and the craziest bank robbery this side of the Mississippi. the year of the cowboy continues. YEEHAW.
