So Now This Is Happening -

Which is pretty cool.

Basically a test film is like a series of sketches telling the whole story, with a dialogue track and music laid over it. Animated films do it a lot, to make sure something is working before they go full-animation on it.

Amazon Pictures believes in it for development as well as demonstrating the potential of an idea, and my screenplay is one of the first test movies that they are creating themselves to show the kind of thing they want to do with it.

Hopefully it'll lead to an actual movie being made of it.

Either way, it should be cool, and though I have nothing to do with the making of it, can't wait to see how it turns out.

LOVE the comic book images, Scott. Glad to read, you're experiencing some sucess. Finger's crossed; I hope your movie gets made.

Wish I could have seen you at this year's Screenwriting Expo. There was a beer in that for you, FYI.

Keep rockin', Scott. And for Pete's sake, post some more!

loving the looks, this is quite amazing, there is so much blue and the white for contrast really does the trick. Also i've got to ask you this, how do you manage to put and develop your ideas on "paper"?
