Breakthrough on Breakout!

The other night I decided to pull out my script for “Breakout” to see if I could jump start my writing. I went though and did some editing on the stuff I had typed out for the first two episodes. Then as I started reading though Episode 3 – Scene 1 (still handwritten)  I made a few more changes, added some additional dialogue to help the scene flow better and when I was finished I moved on to Episode 3 – Scene 1 to which I had written “Opening scene – Exterior – Alley” and NOTHING else! No notes no nothing. Oh snap I was in trouble.

See, I started this script back in 2013 right after my chapter pulled out of that national Doctor Who Fan Film, of which I still don’t think they ever got off the ground! Anyway, in an effort to save my group I started writing this “Breakout” script which is a Doctor Who / OS* Tomorrow People crossover film, or webisodes.  (*Original Series)

Well anyway, yesterday (Sunday) I sat there looking at that sentence and the rough idea I had for that scene started to come back to me so I outlined it. But that was as far as I had gotten, I didn’t have any real plans for the rest of the script so I ended up outlining all of Episode 4, all three scenes, YAY!!! At this rate I think there may end up being…maybe seven (7) episodes. We’ll see but not too many more than that.

So thank you Lord that I was able to get SOMETHING accomplished, but the sad part is that I don’t know anyone who’s making films here in Altus and the one group I have vaguely heard about I don’t want anything to do with so I don’t know. The sets and some of the costumes for this would be quite elaborate what with having to create both an interior and a physical (box) TARDIS, the inside of the TP lab as well as a lab for the evil scientist Dr. Holloway, which both look completely different. On the other hand once everything has been made we, my crew and I, could always keep everything and continue writing more scripts and turn it into a series of webisodes which is actually what I’d like to do anyway. But whatever happens I’m just happy that I will finally be able to finish this even if it never gets made.

So, with that, if anyone would like to read two short sample scripts from this project here ya go.

Saturday Meeting

Our meeting is this Saturday the 17th at 5:30 at the café (1117 N. Jackson).

Last time only one person showed up and this time that person isn’t able to make it. So if no one shows up I don’t know that I’ll keep this group open. I’ll just have to think about it b/c I’m not going to kill myself if no one’s going to show up for the meetings.

Sorry for being harsh but I don’t know what else to do. My dream is to write and make films and it’s hard to sit back and watch that dream die b/c everyone just looses interest.

I don’t know. Perhaps we should put the Doctor Who / Tomorrow People film on hold for now and work on something else? Something smaller and more suited for our small group but still keep working on B/O behind the scenes? You know, set and costume ideas and so forth?

The café is thinking about hosting a WhoviCon, not specifically for us just b/c the owners are huge Who fans. What do you guys think, is that something we would like to get involved in? Personally I think it will be good for us but we, as a group, would need to help the owners think of activities and so for to do at the Con. I thought of a costume contest and Tiffany, one of the owners, thought of a TARDIS building contest – which I love the idea of but we’d have to have more than just those two things to do. They can’t show episodes there b/c they don’t have a commercial license so we’d need to have other things to do.

Well anyway, if anyone has any ideas, other than we need to change our name, then let me know at the meeting on Saturday. 580-477-0625
