Intro:
In July, I performed in an improv play in Brighton as part of a course I was taking. Also signed up for a longer film course than the ten-week one I did earlier in the year – which will start in September.
I am planning on submitting to the BAFTA Rocliffe competition this September. The BAFTA competition works on an alternate-year basis so this year is film scripts. I am going to submit my script set during the 1665 plague lockdown in London, so will be spending August re-editing it as it’s been a while since I last looked at it.
So on to the update!
Scripts Update:
Have plans to redesign this website in August by putting in my latest CV and (once I am able to buy a microphone and editing software in a few months time) put in a showreel page of sound recording and video editing I have done.
The Trojan War Diaries edits are still happening; each new draft does tell the story better than the one before. Though I am really looking forward to being able to actually write episode 2 one day!
The Gold Rush script is coming along too, but probably won’t submit it to competitions before BBC Writers room in December as have enough other scripts to submit to various competitions before then so will focus on re-editing instead.
Things Learnt:
Turns out before I can buy the video-editing software I want and Final Draft, I have to save up to buy a new computer first (this one is a hand-me-down from my brother). However, I should be able to afford one this Christmas so my new year’s resolution will be to train myself on my new software!
