Episode 28: New Tools
So at the start of this year I got a whiteboard (and by got I mean dug up from my basement). It’s been a great tool for writing down broad stroke ideas and log-lines for scripts. But there is not enough room on it to outline an entire script. So today, I dug this up:

Episode 27: The Script Contest vs The Old World
So it’s been a while since I took to The Idiot’s Box to get some thoughts out, but that time has come again.
June 2010 I realized I wanted to write television. How? By entering a script contest that forced me to have a deadline. Wanting to enter that contest gave me enough of an initial spark to begin my writing journey… And have not stopped since.
The contest was to write a...

How Dave Anthony & Greg Behrendt Crafted The...
Last night I trekked into Brooklyn for a show at The Bell House. The show was called The Starfish Circus and is the brain child of stand-up comedians Greg Behrendt (this guy) and Dave Anthony (this guy). The show’s meant to be an event for fans of the podcast the two host, Walking The Room. A brilliant podcast that everyone should check out.
As a fan of the podcast, I went into The Starfish...

A fascinating and frankly inspirational editorial from SNLBound
snlbound:
I used to be pretty anal about things. I was working 70 hours a week between two jobs and taking a class or two at Nashua Community College and that was all. I would come home from work and clean my room and sort my mail into individual files in my sweet filing cabinet. I used to stay late at work…
That moment you realize that if you revise anymore...

Why Fincher Needs To Shut Up And Get To Work
When news came down last year that the most commercialy successful perfectionist working in Hollywood right now, David Fincher would be heading up a TV series for the first time, I’ll admit that I was partially excited.
And then time passed…
Earlier today news came down that Fincher, in classic Fincher style, was threatening to walk off the project if the budget was not raised....

In my freshman year of college Chuck premiere on NBC. And now, a little over half a year after my graduation it has ended.
Of all the shows I love that ended recently, this one is the most upsetting to know it won’t be coming back. But yet, I am happy. I am happy because the story got the ending it so rightfully deserved.
I’m not writing this to review the finale, I’ll do that...
