I am in the process of weeding out useless characters (unnecessary expenses) from my script. I have been taking notes and following William M. Aker's book. I should really just read it cover to cover then revisit it. But every time I pick it up, the info is so valuable that I must take notes. Fortunately, I have a lot of the elements in my script already. I did it subconsciously but now I'm well aware of some of the pieces of an effective story. Creativity is exhausting.

As for music. I have made my choice. It is simple and affordable. Won't share my trade secrets here.

I will start a one week class next week. I hope to earn some much needed cash to start saving for my Red Scarlet. The Scarletuser forum is so quiet these days. We're probably all waiting for some powerful news. I'm worried about release dates. I want a camera in the spring. Should I go with the S35 or the 2/3" sensor? What about lens costs? Which is a better investment? I'd say both, but the rest of the decision lies on guessing the future... will the trend move towards bigger TV's with ultra resolutions? Hows about the silver screen? I wanna see my movie projected. 2K should suffice. No idear. What about for stills? Will 16mm lenses work well for photography? Maybe I should bite the bullet and take the S35. I hope to see Red's new prime lens selections. Mini primes would be more affordable... hope they have autofocus and a nice amount DOF. Mental debate shall continue in my head.
