I'm happy to announce my first produced feature screenplay, MIND WAVE, has been released today by Vertical Entertainment. It is available in select theatres and as VOD on AppleTv+, Prime, Google Play, VUDU and YouTube.
Logline: As a global ban looms over a popular Chinese app, a framed expatriate cyber expert races to clear his name and expose a conspiracy threatening democracy worldwide.
Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rm80cdL30F4

What I didn't expect by seeing my first feature on the big screen is how much better I could have/should have written it. I realize how much more I have to learn about story telling and screenwriting. This release then is just the next step of perfecting my craft and by no means an "I made it" celebration!
I also want to encourage other emerging screenwriters that YOU CAN DO IT TOO! Your movie doesn't have to be perfect to be released.
Anyway, if you like it (or don't) please leave a review on Rotten Tomatoes or Imdb. For me, any feedback is good feedback!

Congratulations, Michael David! MIND WAVE sounds thrilling! I really like the poster! I plan on watching the movie on Prime.
It's great to look at a finished film (or an old script) and see what could've been better. That's one way to grow as a screenwriter.

Congratulations, Michael David! That's super exciting and also just sounds like a really fun story!
And don't worry too much about feeling like you should have written it even better, that's what I call the "creator's curse" and it's universal haha you always feel like you can and should do better. Keep going!

He-he. Nothing shows what you wrote like when you experience it with an audience. Hope the story didn't drag. Make next one EVEN BETTER.

I love this Michael David. There are so many options besides the big screen, which unless it's a blockbuster, seems fleeting and hit and miss. YouTube and Prime seem like more permanent options for ongoing views. Also, you're always going to get my attention when you feature a hunky Asian guy. ;) This is so timely, too. As a Canadian, all in for a Canadian-based thriller.

I'm looking for it on Prime, but I can't find it. Could it be that it's not available yet?

Hellom, David well done and many congratulations, If anyone wishes to know it does take time from development through the casting and production process through to film publicity and release.

Thanks everyone for the overwhelming support and well-wishes! Pat Alexander I don't entirely remember how I got the job; I think the producer saw something I wrote and called me up later and asked if I'd be interested in writing this movie. It was two days before I went overseas with my family on a 10-day vacation. I toured during the day and wrote all night. I'm so happy I pushed myself at a time it would have been so easy and natural to say no. And things have just been looking up and going forward ever since! It could happen to anyone, too, so just keep at it. I never won any contest or anything special, I just write and write. So, it can happen to anyone!
