Latest promo for my web series. Coming 2/12/17

I'll definitely check for this.

Could do a better job of establishing everyones position in the room though. Breh is centered and I can't really tell which way he's looking when he talks. It's disorienting. Get him in the far right or left of the frame (rule of 1/3s) and have him talk to the opposite direction. Also the second scene outside could use an establishing shot.

Of course this is all stuff you might/probably have in the final cut...and I'm only looking at a clip.

Keep pumping out content Breh! Not many people have the balls to put their stuff out there.

That wide shot (wide shot?) with the three people walking before the 2nd verse was

Video was really dope.

So I wrote a short script, and I have no idea if it makes any fukkin sense. If anyone can help me out and give it a look, I'd appreciate it. It's 10 pages long. It makes sense in my head... but I wrote it.

Also, I want to submit it to a little contest, but i can't write a fukkin logline for it. Let me know.

God dammit, I may have hit another roadblock.

Just found out the show I'm working on is already a soon to be webseries for some douche. Am I fukked?

Should I start working on a new show or do I still have a chance? That person's show doesn't have a Hollywood back up; looks independent to the fullest. But I'm sure it could get picked up by Hollywood if they like it.

Ah - this thread again

No massive updates, personally. I put the script I was working on to the side for a minute and started plotting out a graphic novel, last Winter. Written scripts for the equivalent of nearly 40 issues since last August. I'm working with my illustrator on a style guide at the moment.

Given a chance I'd love to see it made as a TV show.

Tv

don't worry about it, just keep working. at worst you'll have a good spec to show people.

That would be my second one.

But that's only if it gets picked up, right?

It's good to have a nice body of work, people only want to read original work nowadays. A good spec can get you a meetings/jobs etc. Very rare that it will actually get picked up though, especially for "unknown" writers.

I meant if that webseries gets picked up then my script could be a spec. Should of been more clear in my post.

Ah got ya, not really I'm assuming your script is different, has different characters?
