It's been awhile, but tonight is the night I finished marking up my script for revisions. I'm waiting to hear from my friend Emma to get her revisions, and then the next step is to make the revisions on the computer. Hopefully I will work on that in the next week or so, and have a second draft completed soon!
The second draft will most likely be the draft I submit to the screenwriting contest, since the submission date is in just a few weeks and a third draft likely wouldn't be ready in time. I'm anticipating the major rewriting taking place here for the second draft, and any additional drafts will include more minor changes rather than major story adjustments.
And once the second (maybe third) draft is completed, then I can start working on other preproduction paperwork. I'd like to complete as much of the preproduction process as possible before submitting the application to the honors program. Of course, my acceptance hinges on me increasing my GPA to 3.5 in time, and I still have time, so I'll be working on that too. But in the meantime, I'm going to assume that I will be eligible and continue working on this film as though it will be made during my senior year.
So that's the update, that's what's new. Sorry about the huge amount of time in between this post and the last one, there just wasn't a lot to report. Revisions for the script took a lot longer than I planned, but hopefully the next few steps will go a little faster.
That's all for now, and I'll report back soon!
