'Doctor Who' :) Also, 'Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrel' is actually awesome!

Thanks everyone. Great choices. I love it. :)

It doesn't get more Canadian than Trailer Park Boys on Netflix.

Sherlock, broadchurch, top of the lake, Continuum. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and ghost writer. Just to name a few.

I like Wayward Pines! It is filming here in Vancouver! A Thriller sci fy!

Headshots for theater are different from film. All film headshot must be in color only and from the shoulders or chest and up. No full body shots (unless you need them for print) No waist up shots either. Borderless is fine but a border with your name on the front helps because sometimes your resume gets lost and there is no other way to know your name after that.

Thanks. It is as I thought. I need to get my film headshot game together.

Take this from one who knows. First, let's start with my Grandfather's works that were copy written, as was my Uncle Lowell Jordan's song " Whole Lotta' Woman " for Lou Rawls by ASCAP. Each estate still receives royalties. Second, be sure and do the same for your written works and note that everything you right should be time and date stamped, so you have documentation as you create your Stories/Scripts and always have a Lawyer you can go to, if you think and can prove that someone has stolen your material and ideas, stories or scripts. Most Executive Producers are Attorney's and I am sure they would not want to be confronted with a lawsuit! Joseph. I am not sure if this will help you, but, my creative process begins with a dream>idea>story>script, after many rewrites, and then possibly a teleplay team with your input after your project has been financed. Just Sayin'. As a Member of Sag-Aftra,I only choose to work with Signatories to the Union! This protects everyone rights and payments into social security, Pension, Health and Welfare Benefits, as well as, wages! HAVE SOME FUN TODAY and take to heart that you are blessed to get to do your craft and Light Your Own Fuse! Most people when they are 1" away from success, they give up and throw away their dreams. SO, consider your writing as an 8 hour a day job and stop to reflect and go out and decompress in anyway you so choose and rest and start the process daily. Your efforts should be your lifelong pursuit " Artist Only Die and We leave our Legacy behind for Others to Follow in Our Footsteps ". My mindset is to BOP TILL I DROP! YOLO.....You Only Live Once!

A horror screenplay is basically masking plain story idea with light and shade, and music effects and inserting unexpected events that an audience identifies with as horror or anything that can instill temporary fear. The suspense has to be evenly distributed in all scenes before we burst it open for the audience.

Wow thanks so much for all the replies, I'm still reading through all of them. I really appreciate the words of encouragement.

Yeah I did with the WGA.

I'm sorry to say that it happens. Here's an example - http://deadline.com/2011/05/warner-bros-acquires-turkey-bowl-for-will-fe... For some reason, Turkey Bowls were in the air that year. There were (at least) 3 Turkey Bowl projects floating around that year, and this one is the one that was packaged and became THE Turkey Bowl project. Look at the silver lining. You had a great idea, and you were in the game. You'll have other great ideas in the present/future.

6 years and older

I would say 8 years old. You can get an 8 year old who can play younger but that is when they are most capable on average.
