Introduce Yourself : Everybody Wang Chung Tonight by Bruce Chapnick

Everybody Wang Chung Tonight

I was listening to the song just now on Pandora, so I figured it's as good a title as any one'd never expect. I've enjoyed reading the other Introduce Yourself posts. After years of flittering about, which included working in libraries, going to film school, working in a studio corporate legal department, working as an actor when first out of college...it's only now I feel I'm seeing some concrete results of my work. It came unexpectedly. Maybe unexpected will be my theme for 2023?

Anyhow...on a whim I created a couple of experimental digital shorts called The Daddy Diaper Diaries. They sat on the shelf over two years because I was...uh, scared I guess? I created it. What if no one else liked it but me? Anyway, I sent them out. After more than 50 Official Selections and 15 awards combined for both projects, I now have a show runner attached and we're knocking on doors.

I'm looking to connect with other daring artists who have the wherewithal to put themselves out there. I enjoy writing, acting, and producing.

Oh, anyone fondly recall from their childhood a series of books called Little Toot? It's about a Tugboat. I'd certainly like to hear from and connect with anyone who knows this book. I'm working on the adaptation these days.

Thanks all! And remember, if you never put yourself and your work out there, you'll never know what people will think about it. As Wayne Greztzky always said, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."
