TOO MUCH AIR and NYC Midnight

My short screenplay TOO MUCH AIR has advanced to the next round of NYC Midnight Short Screenplay Challenge

 

“TOO MUCH AIR” by Debi Yazbeck

LOGLINE – Live, love, laugh — even laugh last. But always watch your back.

This was really fun to create and write. I’m excited for my next set of prompts Saturday morning.

What craziness can I devise next… hmmm?

Update to: APPLICATION ACCEPTED to SUNDANCE INSTITUTE Director’s Lab

AND NOW I HAVE MY CERTIFICATE!

From this amazing experience with Joan Darling.

Thank you, Sundance Institute

Posted on 8/11/2020:

How can life get better!?

It’s not only about being accepted to Sundance’s Lab — It’s about WHO IS TEACHING!

“JOAN DARLING has been nominated four times for an Emmy (the first woman nominated for directing) and twice for a Directors Guild of America award, winning one of each. She was the original director of MARY HARTMAN, MARY HARTMAN. She directed the historic episode of THE MARY TYLER MOORE SHOW, “CHUCKLES” named the number one TV episode of all time. Her feature, FIRST LOVE was named one of the years ten best by CBS. She starred on Broadway, and was a series regular on OWEN MARSHALL. Darling is also a teacher, known for her “Directing the Actor Workshop,” and has served as a Creative Advisor at the Sundance Institute’s Directors Lab for over twenty years.”

SUNFLOWER CARE written by the fricking amazingly talented Della Greenawalt is the project I applied with and will be working on. What better way to be the best director I can possibly be to several exceptionally talented actors?!

WOOOOHOOOO!
