Hey Rich Terdoslavich these look great and the detail is so vivid! I wish I could draw half as well as you!! Until then all must suffer my stick figures :)

Good old storyboards, so much visualisation is done in computers now

This feels nostalgic, storyboards ouh.. Sharp details btw

Hi, everyone. Thank you for your comments and will send networking requests. Will respond to everyone’s comments.

Thanks, Pat! I do both traditional and digital boards. Thank you for your positive comments. If you ever need boards, let me know. All the best.

Hi, Drongo. A few clients will send me reference shots, but I hear you. For something like that, you have to bring your creative and drawing skills to the project and do the best you can.

Hi, Oleksandr. I do both, traditional and digital, working in Procreate, Fresco and Photoshop. Have done both for clients.

Hi, Dan. I have yet to see the film and hope to see it one day and see how the boards aligned with the shots and vice versa. Looking forward to seeing it.

Hi, Olive. Thanks for your positive comments. As I mentioned before, I work both traditionally and digitally. In this case, working with the film director, traditional was fine.

You're welcome, Jesse Kalfel.

Congrats!

I like the title.

Congratulations Jesse

Congratulations, Jesse Kalfel. No small feat!

You would be surprised at what some producers consider a successful pitch, even under unusual circumstances. I have known writers who have received requests from a pitch while a dog was barking, working on a car covered in grease, in a supermarket parking lot, and even in their bathroom! It's about the content, the connection and the curve (twist)! The three C's! If you are a member of the writer's room, feel free to join us in the pitch practice tank every Thursday @5:30 pm PT/8:30 pm ET (adjusting time zones accordingly) which I co-host. It's a safe, supportive and honest space to practice your pitch.

We went off PDT and went back to PST on Sunday, November 3. I think you can be forgiven for your confusion.

What makes you think it went poorly? Just curious.

I think it went poorly because I got the time wrong and felt I wasn't giving the best impression. For me it was 4am and I wasn't expecting the call... I appreciate your thoughts on first impressions:)

Lauren Hackney Don't judge yourself; you did the best! Accept that experience with love, embrace it, and soon it will be a funny memory. Believe me, I know how emotions works :) I am ahead 8hours from LA and sometimes I make confusion. You did well; trust in yourself.

Hello Junior Jensen and Welcome!

Hi Junior welcome to the team and good to meet you!

Thanks for the warm welcome, guys! It's great to meet you all. I'm currently beginning the plans to shoot a few shorts, and then move on to a 30 minute sitcom pilot. I generally focus more on comedy, but I challenged myself to write a drama and ended up with an alt-history dystopian future pilot that I'm rather stoked about.

You're welcome, @Junior Jensen. Are you writing roles for yourself in your shorts and pilots?

Junior Jensen welcome to the club. Bios, meh. It's the work that's important. Reach out if you have any questions. This is the only industry I've ever worked in.
