I think it would be well for the members of SC to read this book by Isaac Botkin called Outside Hollywood. It's very good. You can go to his blog, and you might be able to get a copy of the book there: http://www.outside-hollywood.com/. I would also suggest you check out the blog on it's own from time to time. Also, I have a project I would like us to do. I would like each of the members to have a private brainstorming session and think of a story for a short film. Isaac suggested in his book that young filmmakers begin by making short films for practice and such, and I wanna be able to make a dramatic short with characters, dialogue and an intense, in-depth storyline. That way we aren't just a bunch of little girls acting goofy in front of a camera. If we all pitch in, someone might come up with a good story, or we could mix 'em all together to get one. I guess that's all for now. I will try to keep things a little more updated, as far as project ideas and how you can help with them go.
Sincerely,
Hannah E. R.
