Good morning, fellow artists! Welcome to another exciting edition of my weekly blog. As you all know, I am focusing on three goals this year. Those goals are: 1) Book supporting roles in feature films produced and distributed by independent or mid-sized studios. 2) Complete the second draft of “The Third Act” feature film script with Kelly Tighe. 3) Write and complete the first draft of my rugby feature film script. Each week, I will provide updates that are hopefully inspiring and engaging.
RuPaul, rugby, and the two feature film scripts I’m writing. What could they possibly have in common? I guess RuPaul and rugby both start with the letters “RU.” But what about the two feature film scripts? Well, RuPaul and rugby were celebrations I utilized while writing act two of my latest feature film script and the second draft rewrites for “The Third Act” script with Kelly Tighe. I watched a few rugby games on TV while having glasses of champagne, and I FINALLY started reading RuPaul’s memoir, “The House of Hidden Meanings.” These celebrations reminded me to pause and take some time off to relax, rejuvenate, and take stock of my accomplishments thus far. And yes, LOL, I have to admit that I could hear some of my characters talking to me while I was celebrating. They were infiltrating my mind with ideas and potential dialogue for scenes. There were a few moments where I responded to them with, “Oh, that’s good!” and I made written notes so I wouldn’t forget. And then, there were other moments where I told them, “Shhh. I’m celebrating. Leave me alone.” LOL. Keep reading below 🙂
I’m progressing steadily and approaching the halfway mark of act two of my latest feature film script! Kelly and I have also met a couple of times this past week and made forward progress with “The Third Act.” We’ve continued implementing notes from the feedback and tightening up dialogue and scenes. Keep reading below 🙂
See you next week!
