Casting Actors For Our First Table Read!

Hello, my fellow artists! Welcome to another exciting edition of my weekly blog. As you all know, I have two goals that I am focusing on this year. And each week, I am alternating between the two goals to provide updates that are hopefully inspiring and engaging. This week, we are back to my writing goal for 2024: Finish the 1st draft of the “Third Act” feature film script with Kelly Tighe. Once that’s done, do a table read, get feedback, and complete additional drafts.

Things are moving and cooking with this goal! This past Wednesday, June 12th, 2024, the Professional Development Program 3.0 collective met again via Zoom to start casting actors for our first, official table read of “The Third Act”! We have our date (July 14th!), time, and location. It was so exciting to go through each character and envision a few actor choices for each one. We entered our choices into a spreadsheet and certain members from the group will reach out to those actors to get their interest and availability. The intention for the table read is to hear the script in the hands (and mouths) of these actors, ask them questions, and receive feedback. This process will allow us to determine the next set of rewrites for the second draft of the script. In the meantime, Kelly and I will cut down the script before it is emailed out to the actors. Keep reading below 🙂

See you all next week!
