NY Times: The 150-Second Sell, Take 34 "It's axiomatic at the Ant Farm that Version 1 is always the most elegant, most evocative trailer that is ever created -- and the one that is never released. ''Art's job is to make it beautiful, to make it flow,'' Barbara Glazer explains, ''and my job is to make sure it's doing the marketing and telling the right story.

From Query To Sale. "From Query To Sale is a detailed explanation and basic chronology of the on-going progress of one aspiring screenwriter into, around, and hopefully not out of Hollywood. I'm not going to talk about writing. This page picks up after I typed "THE END." As of this writing, I have not yet sold a script, so I figure I'll keep this page going until I sell something to somebody on some planet somewhere, but I'm not looking for a head scratch, so I'll keep the specifics about my screenplays and myself to the barest of minimums." Sounds very similar to my case... ^o^;;

I found an internship position after Full Sail at Cyan Pictures :: Independent Film Production, to work on Coming Down the Mountain. It's like having a huge weight off my back, not to worry about post-graduation plan. And I can move back to NY, not LA! Yay.

However, on the dark note, I had to cancel my indie production of Vivre Sa Vie!. This is why I haven't updated this weblog for long time. I needed some time to digest my disappointment after all the hardwork put into this project. I will touch upon this unfortunate turn of event later.
