This weekend was a bit of a bust. I didn’t do any writing and I only edited Crosshairs for about 2 hours. I was mainly recovering from my work week. The wife left for a business trip yesterday so I wanted to spend as much time with her as possible. On Friday, I talked to Jason my trainer about the feature script I’m working on. He really liked it. He said it’s till rough, nothing new there. He told me I should read this book called “Save the Cat” by Blake Snyder. He said it would help with how to structure a script and roughly what should be happening on what page. It was a bit of an eye opener. In a good way. I’ve always felt kind of lost when it came to writing a script. This puts in a whole new perspective. The first thing he talks about is the Logline. The Logline is a one sentence answers the question “What is it?” If you can’t answer the then you don’t have a movie. The Logline for Keith Wants Revenge is “A 20 something slacker decides to get even with everyone that is making his life hell, mean while his high school rival seeks to get even with him”.
The Crosshairs editing has been getting easier. I’ve noticed that it’s easier to edit the scenes where I’ve had more control over the lighting the audio and the shots. Different filmmakers have different styles. I just happened to like mine a little better. 
Boy that sounds really fucking arrogant. I don’t think I’m goods gift to film making. Not by any stretch of the imagination. But I do think that when it comes to lighting and micing a scene I do a good job. And my cinematography isn’t bad either.
This week I plan to keep reading “Save the Cat” and editing Crosshairs. I’ve also been talking to Scott Greenberg about buying his light kit as well as his track dolly. I’ve had come up with the idea of renting equipment to filmmakers. Yes it would also benefit me to have them. But I want to find a way to pickup some extra cash to fun my movie projects. We shall see. I’m going to get the light kit today.
I miss the wife.
