6/12/12

For the rest of the year, I have decided to focus on a project in collaboration with Imani and Brett. We have been talking about it for weeks now, and we finally have a script made and I am in the process of creating a storyboard for it. It is a short film called "Imani Redman's Master Class." We decided to create this because of the recent topic of people our age being scammed by agencies who are only interested in our money. Brett is writing the script, I will be filming/directing, and Imani is starring in it as the creator and teacher in the master class. Our cast will also include Vinny Begina, a film student who Imani randomly says will "be a star", Rebecca Bazychek, who will be one of Imani's Dance Students, and Colleen Lezark, who has no background with the arts at all, and is thrown into a playwriting class. We know that they aren't actors, but we purposely did that to get across  the point that we are trying to make. I read Bretts script today, and just gave my notes. I know these are not usually notes that someone should give a writer, but since we were doing this and giving idea's as collaborators, I just added some things I want to change:

-During Me and Vinny's interview, I'd rather do the "Your paying for this too." thing (That was something Brett and I discussed this afternoon)

-The end was pretty much good, but I just wanna change a few of the lines if you don't mind.
Ex:

(Imani is in the middle of screaming at everyone in the class, Mr. Wu opens the door)

Teacher: Imani, what are you doing?
Imani: I was just... ugh...
Teacher: Out.
Imani: What?
Teacher: OUT!
Imani: But this is (Looks into camera) IMANI REDMAN'S MAST..
Teacher: NOW!
