First Post!

This is the first post of my production blog for my capstone film THE SHAKESPEARE PROCEDURE. It's about brain transplants. I can't really delve into more details because, well, to be perfectly honest, the script isn't finished yet! But it will be. And it will be good.

I've been working with David Bush on the script, and he's been immensely helpful in getting everything started. So I'd like to thank him for all the help he's been giving me in fleshing out the characters and writing the first three drafts of the script. Right now I'm working on the new drafts myself and getting it to where I'd like it to be.

I can say though I'm going for a kind of Looney Tunes quality to it - kind of goofy and fun. I'll post a video or something in another post, to make it clearer as to what I mean.. I also want to match the distinct qualities of those characters into this film, and make them easily recognizable with clear motives and personalities. I think that will be the most challenging part of making the film, and casting it just right.

I feel I'm a little behind on progress. When the semester starts I want to hit the ground running and get production done ASAP. So here I go, to get some lunch and work on the script!
