Join us the Evening of Thursday, April 2!!!

Film Peeps!!! Filmmakers, Actors, Writers, creative people! Want to help each other create, get some inspiration while we are all QUARANTINED and also may be just get our mind off of things. 😀
Who wants to do some online script table readings? Using zoom or something similar!
How many of us have scripts that we would love to have read and also get feedback on? We can do full short/feature scripts or even partially written ones. Let’s take advantage of all this time and help each other create. Most of us aren’t doing much right now.
Let me know if you are interested? If you have a script, would be interested in reading, or would like to join just to listen and give input, let me know. If enough people are interested I will put it together.
What you need: A camera on your phone/computer/tablet and reliable WiFi/data. And you will need to be able to use the camera and be able to view a pdf of the script at the same time. Just know you can’t do these at the same time on the phone. At least with zoom you can’t.

* Currently looking for READERS or PEOPLE TO LISTEN and give input. For our readings this week we already have scripts. But depending how long this quarantine goes we will be accepting more.

There is also a listening opportunity for a script on Wednesday that is already booked for readers. We will be reading Eric Perez's script "En El Terser Dia"
