Corkboards

Iain and I are makin good progress w/ our low budget horror piece. Since he leaves next week, we've been tryna spend every moment we can workin on our script.

It's much easier to work on the script when we're in the same room, as opposed to doin it via email. Cuz when you figure in the time difference, it could easily take us a coupla days to resolve things which are now takin us no more than an hour. So we're scramblin to get as much done as we can before he goes back to England.

To that end, we finally hopped on the Corkboard wagon and bought us a corkboard. Though it's not as big as the one that TnT use (4'x5') it's big enough (3'x4').

The moment the cards went up, I knew that I'd never flesh out (or write) another script w/out one. Yeah, it's THAT good.

I can't believe how valuable it's been in terms of helpin us see our story. It's enabled us to more accurately determine when somethin is missin, superfluous, or in the wrong place. Had I known it was gonna be this useful I woulda bought one years ago.


TnT also use these boards to pitch. We haven't gone in to pitch any ideas yet, but you can bet that when we do, we'll be usin one of these boards. They're tremendously helpful.
