Enter: Screenwriter
Hey kids.Scott A. Williams, aka Scotto Williams, aka Scott Williams XXII, aka Miguel Sanchez here, with a little notice of welcoming to the official Half-Past Eight PM board. Feel free to comment (if by now I've even shown it to you.) Here I'll be logging the production schedule, how things are going, etc, etc.
I don't much care for the current layout and design, qill possibly modify.
The Story So Far:
Most of the cast is set. Doug, Ryan and Kyle are in. Jon Tyrrell is also in. Two actresses, Anisah Hassan and Lauren Wing have accepted minor roles without me showing them the script (soon to be rectified.) Melissa Neabel has similarly agreed to the role of Carol, script unseen, but I haven't got her e-mail address. (Note: should get that.) Alyssa asked for a cameo and I offered her the part of Beth, which she seems to have accepted, but is unsure of (she has Ryan's copy of the script.) The role of Billy Vercotti is as yet uncast.
Aw, fuck.
When I approached Kerri Waite, she told me she really didn't think she had enough time, and I respect that, and have obviously decided to move on. The problem is, I've already used up most of the resources I have for people who'd do this picture. I have absolutely no clue as to who I can bring in to play the rather subversive role of post-op transgendered mafia hitwoman. It's a daunting task that requires a certain type of actress.
I need to get a Billy soon, before I can actually get the wheels turning on this thing.
Most of the locations are scouted. The equipment is properly allocated. My camera is indisposed for most of July, so Kyle, God bless him, is loaning me his (it's only fair, since i'll be using his computer for editing anyway... Kyle is the King. His Halloween costume was accurate.)
The script is in a form that I consider complete. I've changed it since handing it out, but not in any terrible way.
The task of filmmaking is an incredibly daunting one and I'd like to thank all the chums who've signed on. I have no idea why you'd want to, but you've proven yourself great friends for doing it. It's going to be a really hard two months or so and I'm scared witless.
Thank you and keep on rockin'
-Scotto

There are some rumours circulating of a possible casting of Billy and a cold read tomorrow after the english examination. This annomyous poster was simply wondering when she's gonna learn about the whole "man" thing? and can I be there when she discovers the truth? The whole annomyous thing has made my presence pretty hard to secure so I'll reveal myself in code... you may or may not - at some point over the course of the Summer - refer to me as "Mark"... That's all I'm saying... I fear I have said too much! But yeah, should be good.
-annon.
Oh don't worry, I'll tell her after the audition.
Your secret's safe with me.
