A Blog Days Night

Hey guys & dolls!

Thought I'd quickly check in with youse. Hope all is well on all of your respective ends.

It's been a productive couple of weeks at The Make Believe Picture Company; touching up some scripts, researching for a new one we're gearing up on and looking at apartments half a world away for the big move.

Exciting times to say the least. There's a lot of momentum on our side and we're continuing to plug away. Just keep working. You can't go wrong with it and before you know it, you're exactly where you need to be.

I do want to talk about something just a bit off our beaten path for a minute though. As you guys know, we write, develop and produce stories that we are going to put up on the silver screen someday (someday soon-ish, cross those fingers imaginary readers.)

Eric & I are filmmakers at heart and to me, there's nothing more inspiring than seeing a good film.

Something you can lose yourself in and apply your own personal feelings and memories to while still enjoying the hell out of the tale being spun.

To me, the epitome of that, is Super 8.

I just got back from watching it, and while I'm FAR from being a summer blockbuster popcorn movie fan, I gotta say I absolutely loved it. You can see the heart and soul put into it. Very 80's Spielberg.

I won't go into the particulars but I just love being inspired by a movie. That's what it's all about, it's why you tell stories, it's why you write, it's why you try to get into this crazy ass business in the first place. It's what makes it all worth it.

I thought it was great. If it doesn't make you to pick up a camera and start shooting a flick (or find an alien) then I don't know what will. It just makes me want to push that much harder to share our stories with you guys.

Good stuff. Check it out if you get the chance. It's mint.
