Not Cool, Cool, Not Cool, Cool

Yesterday Miguel didn't approve the script. That was not Cool. Today I saw the shuttle discovery take off today. That was cool. Then I heard that North Korea test fired 3 missiles, one capable of reaching the US. That was not cool. Then I watched fireworks from the top of a tall building. That was cool. It’s been a rollercoaster of a day.

It’s actually been a rollercoaster of a weekend. I talked to Miguel yesterday. I was able to squash a lot of his main problems, issues I’ve heard before as far as too many characters and police car usage. He said his biggest problem over all with the screenplay was that it lacked a central point of view. I explained to him that it’s from Jeremy’s point of view (Jared(Me)). He said he got that the character framed the story and that it was a good device but he didn’t feel he was a central character. I asked him if he’d seen love actually and he said no. I told him to see it and he’d see the structure I’m going for. Anyway, he said he still wanted a stronger central character so I pitched him the idea of adding two voice overs. One at the beginning and one at the end, both by Jeremy. He liked it. So I did it. I sent it to him this afternoon and he’s going to go over it and get back to me by Thursday the latest. He had some notes and spelling errors and I took them into consideration in this version of the screenplay. Well everything’s still on hold till he approves it. Sigh. Just going to have to wait.

I had a busy weekend and had a lot of emails from actors and crew over the last couple of days that I still haven’t answered. Guess what I’m doing tomorrow?

Also I’m gonna update the website. I got some bios. Yippee.
