I don't like my blog having such an old post as the highest post and I just put this URL on some resumes I sent out, so it's time for an update!
Lots of family members were in very bad health over the past few months, so I've been in hospitals often.
I started working at E&H Studios since my last post helping out at Ardent Atheist and Skeptically Yours with Emery Emery and Heather Henderson. They're both super nice people, and it's a blast being in studio for their hilarious shows. This is a real treat for me starting as a fan and I look forward to it every week.
I'm likely going to be an executive producer on a documentary film I'm really excited about.
I've been taking classes at UCLA in their Television Writing program. I've been learning a lot and meeting some great industry veterans as well as aspiring writers and producers. I've completed (although it needs punch-up) a spec script for HBO's Silicon Valley and starting on a spec episode of Fox's Gotham. As soon as they're complete and changes are registered with the WGA, I'll share them online. I'm really proud of the stories I came up with on both. The Silicon Valley spec I will be entering into Nickelodeon's writing fellowship which means I have to make any changes to it before the end of the month. After that, there are a few more fellowships to apply to with the big six studios throughout the year.
I'm also putting final touches on a feature script I wrote called DeathWorld. This is coming along really well and I'm really happy about the positive feedback I've been getting on what I've shown so far.
Had to quit taking classes at the Animation Academy for the time being, which is a little sad because I liked the progress I was making, the teacher is great, and it's fun to see the students (many of whom are in High School) coming out of their shell and learning the craft. I made a conscious choice though to focus on writing only for the time being, but I plan on going back after I'm done at UCLA.
That's all for now.
