I didn't actually expect to come back to this blog. It was purely for my trip to New York; to help me overcome my fears and not forget what was an incredible experience.
But here I am! I looked at the title I chose for this blog, (taken from this beautiful play by Lee Blessing), and I read my little subtitle, and I realized I left it wide open! I'm still an artist on an adventure, and I want to share with any who will follow, about my next big project.
First of all, in case you were wondering, I HAVE kept busy with school all semester.
I directed my first full-length play...

Now, onto the REALLY exciting things :)
My next project is a short film. I'm skating right over the obvious arguments I would have with myself,("Gin, you've never made a film before..."), and I'm moving on to the planning stage.
So here's where I'm at:
-I have a story. It's all written except for one scene.
-I have two actors on board, and am waiting to hear from two more.
-I have a gorgeous Pinterest board that has been marinating and developing all semester, full of
concept images, costume inspirations, color palettes, etc...
-OH RIGHT! I have a title. It's called Turn.
-and I have a deadline for the screening. The week of April 8-13th.
What I DO NOT HAVE:
-scouted locations.
-a camera. (bahahahahah)
-actual costumes.
-a schedule for filming.
I would appreciate your support and continual following of this blog!
I only have three days left of Winter Break, so I'll be using them to hammer down the script, welcome actors on board, and put together a tentative schedule.
Bon Vacance!
Ginny
So excited you're writing again! Can't wait to hear about everything!!
