Page 47.



You're only on page 47?

Yep.

The script is coming along just fine. I have really been enjoying 'makin' this world'.

But, I do find that even though I have the whole script outlined, it's a whole different beast when it comes to actually writing the screenplay.

Suddenly these characters do come alive. It's pretty exciting.

I think because this is my first feature, I feel a need for this film to "speak for me". And what I mean by that is... this will be the first film most people will ever see by me and I want it to be something that truly represents my art and vision.

I wouldn't want to make "Deuce Bigalow" and be known as the "Deuce Bigalow Guy".

Of course it would be really weird, to be known as "The New Black Guy". Not very PC, I suspect, considering I'm a cracka from Kansas.

Anyway, maybe I do 'over think' things when I'm writing, but I only have one chance to make a first impression and I would rather it be something I'm very proud of...

With the great crew and actors I have lined up, it's up to me to deliver a good script and the rest will fall into place, I'm sure.
