Busy Buzzie Bumblebee

Been a very busy time. Twisted Showcase is now fully underway. Yet to contact all writers whose scripts are chosen, but a few have been, I'm sure a blog/website wil be set up to inform of news on the series and what not.

Will be some new regarding Fear of Living soon, but in the meantime why don't you check out the trailer

Also just finished first draft of a sitcom script. Now moving onto another script. Still considering options for my horror film script, and other scripts are with other companies and some other news just around the corner.

It's all very busy.

Hope you're good, whoever you are reading this.

Back to work

So here's where it begins. Soon the Twisted showcase site will be up and running, and if you submitted a script you will be contacted in the next few days if we want to go ahead with it.
Some new scripts will be started by myself in the next few days, my last attempt at a sitcom script one I've been building up for a quite a while, hope i can pull that off, and got a few ideas queued afterwards so hoping for some prosperous writing months ahead.
I have had some good news about a certain script of mine, but I'm staying quiet on that for now.
This is a kind of dropping in for a catch up and a cup of tea blog.

Planet Failure

Looking for an illustrator, or the word that first came to my childlike mind, drawer for a comic strip project.
Really simple stuff, could be compared to something like American Splendor. We have a page or two of sample script so if you'd liek to have a look or have a go at it contact me at contactdhrupick@hotmail.com

Thanks for all the Lizard Fish

I haven't blogged for a while as I wanted to keep up the script call for Twisted Showcase. the deadline has passed for that now and we're going through all the scripts we recieved. If you submitted a script, thank you and Good Luck with it.

If you're a writer, whilst you're here you might like to know about a new production company with BAFTA credentials who are looking for scripts, check out Lizard Fish.

Twisted Showcase Presents...

Hello,

Recently my film maker friend Rhys Jones (you really should check out his night killer films on the you tube) told me about this idea for a web series he had and brought me on board. Now, if you're a writer, we'd like you to be involved.

Here's the brief:

We are looking for writers to submit scripts for a series of short films in the horror genre.
The films need to be:
• 5 minutes in length.
• Horror/sci-fi/comedy and all the permutations that could come from that
• Domestic setting (when the normal meets the abnormal theme)
• 3 characters max

As we are working with no budget it would best to keep things small, as fun as a film about space men from mars battling a roman legion with a cast of hundreds set 3000 years ago would be, it would also be impossible for us to do. So keep it simple, but also let your imagination run wild as we are looking for interesting ideas here.
The rest is up to you.

The best 2 or 3 submissions will be made into episodes of the series.
We will be shooting during the summer and looking to upload the episodes around October/November time.

If you'd like to submit a script or if you have any questions please send them to

twistedshowcase@gmail.com

Deadline for Submissions is Wednesday 20th April


Cheers

Spaceships Over Deeside video

I was very happy when Spaceships Over Deeside asked me to direct a video for one of their songs. This is the outcome.
Hope you like the video for Brilliant New T Shirt Remix.

Little White Lies Fear of Living interview

A couple of months ago myself and Leigh Jones conducted an interview with Little Whie Lies, for their Grass Roots blog, concerning the Fear of Living.

If you haven't heard of the film, a short that I wrote and Leigh directed, head over to the blog there will be plenty of updates to that very soon.

Anyway, here's the link to the interview in Little White Lies if you'd like to go and have a read.
