Introduce Yourself : I'm Hesitant by Kay King

I'm Hesitant

Hi Stage 32ers, I've been a member for months and haven't introduced myself. I am a frustrated writer. I really want to get my film made. I basically just enter competitions hoping to win to get my film made. I have been told that I should just do it myself by friends because it is pretty low budget. I'm not a filmmaker though. I'd rather write. Are there any filmmakers out there who can't stand writing but want to make an achievable low budget film? I'm actually really unsure about putting it out there. I don't check my messages everyday so please don't be offended if it takes a while for me to respond. Thanks for listening/reading, K (aka "Hesitant")

Thanks so much Kathryn, I appreciate the feedback. I will check it out. Thanks again ; )

Well, only advice I can give as your thread sounds you don't get positive feedback from the competitions (but maybe I got this wrong) - check the coverage service here on Stage32. You find it under 'happy writers'. It costs some money, but you will get a detailed, profund and professional feedback which will bring you at least one step further in your writing.

Vern Foster

Hello Kay, I hope all is well. Just wondering do you have a synopsis or logline for your film?

Kay King

Thanks Elisabeth, I started with the big ones (Final Draft and Scriptapolooza) and now I'm working my way down. So I just have it in 1 competition now. I haven't got any professional competion feedback. But a friend in the industry sent it out to some producers. The feedback was "It sounds French not American".... Thanks for the tips. I think I'd like to get more feedback as I've given it some distance and its no longer my baby. Hi Vern, My logline is: "Marge is a newly single, one boobed, super duper messed up 45 year-old liar who returns home after 27 years to “help” her mother, the results are a rollercoaster ride as Marge’s double life crashes together in a crescendo of humiliation. " Thanks for asking : ) Thanks again Kathryn I'll take that luck ; )
