Best Friends airs this Wed, 17th Oct

Oh my, this really has come around…

 

Seems like yesterday that my best friend Melvin and I were asked to write for this series. It has been a fab experience on the whole. Not only working with a very talented writer, but me, writing comedy.

 

I never thought I would actually get it done and that it might be funny. Please, any comments on the day are most welcome 🙂

 

I am so happy, and excited, and well just about every emotion going.

 

So, MARK your calendars everyone. This is it!

 

We need all the help you can get, share it. Blog it, facebook it, tweet it, anything to help us get the word out there.  And we will be eternally happy.

Best Friends Web series

I should have been blogging more. But I’ve had such a month of stuff. 

First off, my dad got married 25th May in bonnie Scotland. It was a glorious day, and we stayed in a beautiful hotel. 

I really do have lots more to add and talk about, but I think it will have to wait for another day. 

I’ve had a few problems with my koi, getting into breeding season. And we had a massive flux of blanketweed, which caused massive Ph swings from morning to night. My fish weren’t happy at all. Finally got it under control with the help of some great guys. 

I’ve been busy busy with the writing side of things. Melvin and I have written 7 episodes for Best Friends. A couple of them were a little difficult due to restraints and re-writes, but one more to do over the weekend and we’re waiting then for filming to start in July, casting calls have already gone out (to which over 250) have applied for. Wow, can I call myself a writer now…. pretty please? 

It has been great fun though coming up with plots for the girls and their families. Lets just see how it all pans out now. We’ve all got high hopes for the series, so I’ll be bugging you all to stop and watch it.

Here’s a link to a short interview with the girls. 

 

And if you check the Facebook page, you can see some shots of the set…. 

 

Gotta run, so much more to do.

Been a while… so busy with projects

Hey everyone,

So it has indeed been a good while, but it has been some happy times. Along with lots of hard work. Writing is re-writing isn’t it?

I am involved with a few projects at the moment. All very exciting and moving along at a good pace.

Please check out IROBE written by myself and Melvin Johnson Jr.

I met Melvin on a script writing site called Zhura in 2007. We became fast friends and have grown as writers along the way. This is our first written script together although we have been helping each other out along the way. He is a great writer with lots of experience and I was honoured to work with him on  something we both believed in.
We’ve also been  asked to write together a new web-series, but early days on this. I hope to post some more on it when I can. 🙂
And, The Pandoran Chronicles currently in underwriting for funding.

I  am also co-screen writer with Dante D’Anthony on this fantastic CGI animation franchise.

http://www.pandoranagechronicles.com/   check out the ‘Team’ members some great names in there and some even more amazing artwork.

Please drop by these pages and let me know what you think, like it, share it, you know I’ll do the same for you…Thanks :)

Let this year be the best for all of us here, and I’ll continue to push http://www.talentville.com out there as well, as it has put me in contact with some of the most supportive and talented people ever.

It hooked me up with a cool guy who is helping me bring some animated life to The Secret King.

I never thought much about CGI or what you could do in animation compared to ‘real live’ films. However, Jaime has converted me into believing that it really could look awesome done this way.

So, we’re creating the main characters, working on the story world and going to put together an  animation short film or teaser to shoot the festivals next year.

It is all really exciting for me and it has been a long time coming. Finally. 🙂 I am stoked.

Regarding the koi,  I’ve just got rid of 120 so  the rest (the best have more room to grow) It had to be done, and I know the last few (100) are going to be amazing.

Busy, busy.
On to  some more work. Catch you all soon.

A grin day :) and writing day

Hello all. 

Today I went out really early with mum to catch a little bit of shopping and then to get my new phone.

 

I am happy to say I went for the Samsung Galaxy S2 in the end, big deliberation over which to pick though. But, everyone said that it was this one, or an iphone and I wasn’t going to pay that sort of price per month for a phone so I got the S2 a lot cheaper. 🙂 bonus.

 

I  got all my jobs done and then off to work, reading both these two scripts (took a while) but  I’ll be working on and then so I emailed both parties with different questions. I’ve also penned note and things so we’ll see what the answers are before I move on and start doing things. 🙂 

 

I am excited though, 

 

Off to chill for a few hours now, good evening to all.

more writing. :)

So I have had so much go on this weekend and today. Work was yuk, but been out for dinner and have gotten on with a couple more pages of my short script. 

 

I am however so tired, didn’t sleep at all last night, far too cold. Today was warmer but it is going to be another cold night. 

 

Sorry for the short update, but I can’t write and write here as well. 

 

Speak soon everyone, need anything shout me. I’ll do my best to answer.
