Introduce Yourself : Saying hi again by Leya Kokoravec

Saying hi again

So I haven't been active that much lately with everything going on, so I thought I'd say hi to everyone.

Lately there have been working on many different things in different fields so I'm spread out all over the place.

I've been sculpting a lot and working on photographing the sculptures that I have made to have better catalogue.

We've had a few commercial projects that we had shot in the past couple of weeks, but for now there's mostly been pre production for upcoming project which I only have a small part in.

I'll be completely honest and say that I've been a little preoccupied with the whole situation happening a few hundred miles away from us and so it's been hard to concentrate on anything at times but I it was fun in the last week helped my partner with creating and finishing a couple of pitch decks for projects that we've been developing for some time and may finally get a chance to pitch.

How is everyone else doing these days?

Anyone have any cool projects they're working on?

Let's connect and see what we're doing and how we can help each other.

Who knows what great things can happen when people cooperate and communicate. :)

Anyway here's our production showreel that I created a couple of weeks ago.

Have a great weekend everyone and enjoy! :)

Hi, Leya Kokoravec. Great Production Showreel. Glad you were able to get your mind off what's happening in Ukraine by making/finishing the pitch decks. I'm currently working on two feature script jobs.

Leya Kokoravec

Thank you both! :)

Actually working on the two pitch decks was really fun and it was great because I was able to take some load of Vital and he was able to concentrate on writing everything. Otherwise it can be overwhelming.

What kind of scripts are you working on Maurice Vaughan ?

Maurice Vaughan

You're welcome, Leya Kokoravec. I'm working on two feature script jobs and a spec script.

Lleeya Sherrod

Great reel!

Leya Kokoravec

Thank you Lleeya Sherrod, everything was shot, edited and graded by either myself or my partner.

Nice to meet you :)

Leya Kokoravec

That's great Maurice Vaughan! Congratulations on writing a lot.

Vital tells me that it's really hard for him to get into the right mood to write, but he keeps saying he's not a writer.

On the other hand I couldn't write to save my life. :)

Maurice Vaughan

Thanks, Leya Kokoravec. Sometimes it's hard to get into the right mood to write. Sometimes when that happens, I just push through and write anyway.

Cherelynn Baker

Maurice Vaughan ..that's what Shonda Rhimes said and look how it turned out for her!

Maurice Vaughan

Did she say that in an interview, Cherelynn Baker?

Cherelynn Baker

Yes Maurice Vaughan ! She told the story about how she worked a 9-5 job, commuted, got home and was TIRED ..but..the writing needed to be done. So she did it. Tired. She treated it like a job and had scheduled writing time and did it even when she did not want to. DANG! I find it so encouraging because sometimes, I'm tired, and I don't' want to. Sometimes I would rather watch a show then write one. So I have her quote and photo on my vision board. Shondaland didn't happen overnight, with luck or accident. She put in the work daily when she didn't want to! Go write Maurice!

Maurice Vaughan

That's encouraging. Thanks, Cherelynn Baker. I'm actually off to write!
