From Echoing Nada to a Peep

This is a follow on to an earlier post.  I didn’t even get snarky comments, so decided on a broader, more open-ended one:

A peep or twain and I started communication with one fellow writer/director in the DC area.  No idea if anything will come of it, of course, but this business runs on contacts, so worth investigating to see if there is common ground.

I tried an ad on DragonukConnects, but nothing.  I was going to post a ‘job‘ on the Virginia film web site, but can’t seem to get past the captcha. I sent an email complaining and got no response.  However, yesterday I was contacted by the VA film office interested in an update to my horror movie concept I must have mentioned to them at some point.  I told them it was on the back burner in favor of the bike racing one, but also mentioned the RedDom long shot and my efforts to find a B-list actress to take on the project.

Speaking of which, after two weeks an echoing nothing from my first attempt. Last night I fired off a second one.  This actress has proven she’ll take on indie work (she has one coming out this year with a $200K budget) AND act as executive producer, so maybe I’ll get lucky this time.
