Introduce Yourself : Just saying hi to filmmakers! by Trilby Jeeves

Just saying hi to filmmakers!

The email I received said "come out of the shadows". Haha... that is what prompted me to write here today. I'm an actor, director and a costumer. I just worked as the costume set supervisor on the CBC (Canada) series, Diggstown. It was a rock n' roll shoot but we got things done! My own short film, The Rolling Pin, that I wrote and directed is floating around in Japan right now. I may be heading there for their last weekend of the festival run...fingers are crossed! I've started writing a feature script... but you all know how long that takes! I'm pretty passionate about the subject, though, so hopefully that will keep me motivated. I'd love some writing buddies if you're out there. As we know, accountability helps with deadlines. Anyhooooo..... that's me "out of the shadows". Hope the creative juices are flowing for everyone!

Hiya Trilby Jeeves and welcome! What's your feature about?

Sandra Ray

Stepping out of the shadows is very difficult, I know. Glad you did! Congrats on Diggstown!

Trilby Jeeves

Thanks Sandra Ray .... I get overwhelmed with all the social networks and keeping up! But.. I'm trying to get motivated to get writing!

@MorganAitken It's loosely based on my relationship with my Mum, and WW2. :)

Congratulations. Welcome to the greatest platform ever!

Glad you stepped "out of the shadows," Trilby Jeeves. It's not so scary out here. :)

The Writers' Room has Writers' Cafes throughout the week. The Cafes are writing accountability sessions. https://www.stage32.com/writers-room

You can also find screenwriting resources and advice to help with your script in the Screenwriting Lounge: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/screenwriting

Maurice Vaughan I think there's a one month free promo on the Writers' Room. If not, a quick request to Jason Mirch writerhelp@stage32.com would do the trick. Regardless, I majorly agree with you. The Writers' Room is serious motivation and support. I'll be back amongst the scribes myself in short order.

Matthew Parvin

Welcome, Trilby! Nice to meet you. Glad you're here.

Maurice Vaughan

You're right, Morgan Aitken. There's a free month of the Writers' Room. The promo ends at midnight.

Trilby Jeeves

Thank you Maurice Vaughan and @Morgan ! I will look into this. I need some prompting!

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Trilby Jeeves. There's a ton of other resources in the Writers' Room (live events, free webinars, Open Writing Assignments, discounts, etc.).

@Trilby Hello and welcome. Hope your film "Rolling Pin" rocks and rolls in Japan. Costumes are fascinating. I recently did a lot of study into 1940's USA clothes to give tailors in UK patterns to copy but I'm not in costume department myself.
