Location Scouting

I’m informally location scouting for the big summer film project.  I’ve already got some leads (thanks, those who have reached out), and I’m pursuing more.  If you have access to any of these locations, or have a friend who might, please let me know:

-A cubicle-heavy office, preferably with a windowed conference room, an elevator, and a lobby.  (Single location needn’t meet all of these criteria.)

-A therapist’s office, preferably with a big ‘ol desk, chairs, and a stereotypical couch.

-A hotel lobby

When filming eventually happens, I’d obviously work around the constraints of the owners, on off-hours.  Any lead is helpful.  Thanks!

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…

The Wire

The lady and I are working our way through the third season of the critically acclaimed long-form crime drama The Wire.  We came up with a spin-off series that will surely make us millions:

In each episode of Bubs in Trubs, lovable junkie/informant Bubbles will unsuccessfully attempt a new and hilarious caper!  The lady and I will be writing the spec pilot, in which Bubble’s prize is a radiator stuffed with copper pipes.  Featuring guest appearances by McNulty, Kima and the gang!

This will surely be an ostentatious launch of my screenwriting career.
