Location scouting in Hermance

I am currently preparing a new short film and shooting is due in February (crossing fingers). I spent this afternoon on location in order to test the best angles and spots for the scenes. Here is one :

Writing scripts is joy (I)

No news since June equals good news…

The post-production of "Parcelle 4198" aka "Fallow Green" didn't work as planned this summer, like I suggested in a previous post. No support means no energy. Also, I grew tired of delaying, so I decided I wanted something new and began to write scripts, mostly fiction during the summer. The response was instant. Ideas otherwise emerging with great difficulty popped up like pop-corn in my brain. I couldn't sleep. It felt like I had repressed a creative urge for so long.
No less than 10 short films and a feature are on their way. Unbelievable! Here is an extract from the feature. Nah, forget it. I won't tell you anything about it… yet!




P.S. To those who are not used to the screenplay environment: if you're interested in writing scripts or novels and look for decent software, try Cetlx. It's free (scriptwriting version) and easy to install on both Windows and MacOS.
