after much inner turmoil and debate, i decided to scrap the zombie movie script. for now anyway. the whole apocalyptic/uber-plague/zombie theme has once again over-saturated itself as of late. i have no desire to compete with or add to it. i'll keep it on file though. the outline is complete. maybe i'll come back to it someday and write the script.
immediately after my decision, i switched gears and began brainstorming a new idea. it's actually based on an old idea i had for a tv series. long story short, it boils down to a future noir/corporate conspiracy/action-suspense shindig.
it's still an infant, but i plan to roll with it. it needs some focus, and it's a little troublesome for me to find the time for focus these days, what with the school and everything.
so this is a call to my fellow geeky, philosophical, creative minds. if you wanna grab some coffee (i'll buy) and shoot around some story ideas (for this or anything else you have in mind), drop me a line.
P.S.: To any other budding screenwriters out there. Pick up Screenplay: The Foundations of Screenwriting by Syd Field. It helped a butt-load.
