Unbalanced Screening

ou know that independent television pilot I’ve been blabbing about for a year?  The one with the big title treatment on this page?  It’s done.  It’s off to festival submissions.  It’s screening in Cambridge on Columbus Day, for free, and if you’re reading this you’re invited.

UNBALANCED Screening
9pm, Columbus Day (October 12)
ImprovBoston
40 Prospect St, Cambridge MA 02139

This is what a year’s worth of work looks like in timeline format.  I know you want to see what it looks like in video format.

All good things.  Onward!

Pilot Progress Report

Memorial Day weekend was the biggest, most ambitious filming block for the pilot, and I’m happy to write that it was a success.  We shot about half of the script in a single long weekend, thanks to the preparedness, efficiency, and talent of everybody involved.

There are still two weekends of shooting to go, but the schedules are a little more relaxed, and the technical demands of the scenes are fewer (fingers crossed).  Onward!

From Los Angeles to Bar Harbor

In which I mourn the passing of August.

Where did the month go?

-A spectacular Del Close Marathon
-A weird and wonderful five-day vacation to Los Angeles
-A majestic three-day vacation to Acadia National Park
-A sweaty photo shoot for Michelle Barbera’s sitcom pilot
-The angsty completion of two very different drafts of my own television pilot script
-A sad farewell to Jason and Jessica, now Boston expatriates
-A celebratory engagement brunch with my two families
-Two birthdays, a handful of headshots, and giddy wedding planning shoved into every nook and cranny….

September’s calendar is forecasted to be less dense, but a return to the ImprovBoston Mainstage will keep me busy, as will more writing/revising, the kickoff of work’s main stage season, and a quick GRE prep course (like, barf).

I hope to be able to codify the month of August into some interesting reading.  I’m writing like crazy, but none of it seems to be in blog format.  So, until I can summon the strength to reflect, here are some pictures from August…
