An exciting start to 2016

Despite my lack of new posts, there has been NO lack of cool stuff happening. Here's a quick catch up on the events of 2016!

First up, Life, After is moving along through post-production. Corinne and I have been reviewing the episode rough cuts, and we're hoping to have our first feedback/test screening in a couple weeks! I'm very excited with how the show is looking and eager to see it move onto the next stage... which is more post-production (specifically VFX and music). I'll keep updating on the show's progress, and you can follow along yourself on the Life, After website and Facebook page!

Rewrites, here we go!

I'm doing rewrites on my feature screenplay, so that's also also keeping me busy. I had a writing professor at NYU who declared that a rewrite meant you literally wrote the entire script over again from the beginning to end. I thought that was crazy. Now, I concede that he was onto something, and I've started again with the empty page. I think it's definitely helpful to resist the urge to just keep tweaking scenes and copy/pasting things around and to make sure I'm really getting to the best version of the story. So we'll see how it goes!

On a personal life note, a little something cool happened over the holidays... I got engaged! My fiancé and I are really excited to be embarking on this next stage of the journey together (that was cheesy... sorry). If anyone wants to indulge in judgement-free wedding planning talk, I am ON BOARD. Also, I bought a dress. Premature, since the wedding isn't targeted until Spring 2017, but when it's the one, it's the one. 

I've got a super exciting piece of news coming VERY SOON, so stay tuned for that! Hope your 2016 is also off to a great start!
