Practicing how to direct
A fun practice session on how to direct and give direction to actors.
And also seeing how a script plays out when actually read by real performers.
Although the two in the video are kind of novices at this, or at least the one on the left, but she still gave it her all, and then some.
This is why the job of casting directors is so very important, cause if don't cast the right person to play a role, everything else can and will be thrown off.
Trial and error.

John Baer and his continuing bus adventures
They asked for help that day, needed a ride to Savannah, so I helped, even though running short on time myself.
But I'm not the type to say no to decent people.
None of us are 100% decent, but it's more of a sliding scale thing...lol
But yeah, some paint, a few more interior adjustments and they'll be on their way.
Just glad I could play a small part in it all.

Life after this school/course...I don't know.
I'm still so healthy for my age, as such that means I still must find something to do, something I enjoy.
But at my age, I really just enjoy being left alone and not having to worry about income.
If this film or screenplay stuff don't work out, I have no idea right now what my next path will be....but not trying to go back to some dull mundane labor type job that just slowly kills off your creative spirit.

Holding pattern to maybe post later
'Cliff'
When standing on a cliffs edge, and that cliff's edge just keeps getting smaller and smaller, with no way to turn back, what does one do?
I guess that's my metaphorical way of describing what it's like for some, or many, when one phase of their life ends, and another begins. And how high the cliff is that you're being shoved off of, I suppose depends on what circumstances, both physically and mentally, etc, one finds themself in at the moment.
You want to fly and soar, of course, but that doesn't mean you will.
I find the ending of this course to be a bit more nerve racking than I would have anticipated, which has me a bit perplexed. I can speculate why, I suppose. Uncertainty? Risk? Desire vs reality or outcome? Failure?
Who out there wants to fail at anything? A show of hands for all those who enjoy failing...
It also depends on the type of support system one has. It's one thing to fail, and have others in your life willing to catch you, it's another thing to fail and know that if you don't catch yourself the only thing that awaits is rock bottom, or the bottom less pit.
Life is fun when you're succeeding, making good money, and things are going your way, but it's not so fun when failing, losing money, and all you face is barrier after barrier, usually man made ones.
I suppose the natural response to fear, within ourselves, is to become angry or mad or upset, as a way of coping with that fear. Mike Tyson said before every fight he was always fearful of losing the bout, and is why he'd go out into the ring with so much intensity.

Supposedly I'll be heading out to Los Angeles soon to pitch my screenplay, we shall see.
Not even sure how to feel about it.

Lady Queen and the Prince who saved them
Was fooling around with a AI service and fed 3 pages of my script to it, it did OK at first, but got confused after like the 3 page so I cut it short.
But yeah, AI can really help speed up your creative process.
I was against AI at first, but now, nah, I'm going to start using it.
While I'm trying to keep it real, others sure aren't.
No other artist helps me, even cares about my projects, so why should I 'keep it real', for others who don't even know or care that I'm alive, and who never promote my stuff?
So, AI, here I come.
Also, one day, I do want to turn this into a movie...more previews to follow.
And I will join regular social media again soon, cause no one promotes me here on these forum boards, or views my videos, nothing...and I give a lot to this place.
