Yo bruh UTA
Do your thing player
Yo bruh UTA
even if it's a 5 minute call and she tells me I'm a talentless piece of shyt, i can spin the story and just tell people, "yeah, well one time i almost got signed by UTA." ... i won't do that though. I'll report back. If i hear the words "page 1 rewrite" I'm gonna be pretty pissed off, not gonna lie.the script she read has been finished for almost 3 years and i already know there are some things that are "dated" b/c the aggressive political climate we currently live in. The main female character is described as "cute" which they probably don't like (I've been told this before, as ridiculous as it sounds) one of the characters is a little too "damsel in distressy" so i fully expect her to address that, and then the 3rd main female is mentioned to be an ex-stripper in passing, so that won't fly well. I shouldn't speculate but i feel like this chick is gonna beat me over the head with feminism crap.
I am editing a first-person short documentary primarily for educational institutions. I'm loving how it is coming out but I am just at the cutting and arranging stage. Next, I have to balance and color grade because they were all over the place recording clips under various T-stops.

Exactly there are a lot, and I mean a LOT of creatives that wish they could get meetings...with UTA, CAA, ICM, Gersh, hell the agent down the block...lol
Point is even if it doesn't pan out, look at it like the beginning of your story..and that you peaked enough interest (talented) to get into the building

There is nothing like the feeling when you get a first cut from your editor and it looks fantastic.
Finally got a log line for a project I thought of after Parkland.
Following the death of a fellow officer, a Vietnam Vet turned Police Chief implements a polarizing plan aimed at gun control that shakes up a town and wakes up a Nation. (takes place in the 1970s)
Finishing up my outline... But thus far,
