I just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself. My day job is that I am a motion designer for film and television. I am currently working on season 2 of The Night Agent. Prior to that I"ve worked on The Blacklist, Person of Interest, Adam Sandler's new film Spaceman, Star Wars: I & II, Deep Impact, Dante's Peak, Quantum Leap (season 2) and American Horror Story (season 12) to name a few projects.
Of course, why we are all here, I'm aiming at working as a professional screenwriter. Our newest script, SAFARI, just received Stage 32's Double Recommend and we couldn't be more pleased. We've been working on it tirelessly for the past 5 months. Not to mention, the initial draft was written in Paris in 1999!
Here's a link to the site if anyone wants to check out the project: https://safari-pitch.com

Great to meet you, Tom Firestone. Congratulations to you and Martin on the Double Recommend! And congratulations on all your success! "Safari" sounds exciting!
"Deep Impact" was one of my favorite movies growing up. I plan on checking out "Spaceman" today.

Thanks all! Maurice: Deep Impact was a fun project. My job was getting the actors in and out of the astronaut suits and I would age them based on the scene they were filming. We shot on the Paramount Lot, Stage 15 (their largest stage). The asteroid set took up 90% of the stage floor.

You're welcome, Tom Firestone. That's pretty cool! And it must've been hectic! I'm guessing only blockbuster movies are shot on Stage 15 because of its size.

Hey Leonardo! Thanks! That's funny, you're watching The Blacklist!
I'm working on The Night Agent season 2 now.
Wow! Incredible shots, Tom Firestone! Thanks. I wanna go watch "Deep Impact" again. I didn't get a chance to watch "Spaceman" yesterday, so maybe a 'Deep Impact" "Spaceman" double feature.
Some of y'all are too good at using Midjourney. I'm gonna need some tips soon!
