pre - proposal


Annabelle Edwards is an ordinary wife and mum of two, in an ordinary town with an ordinary life. In her sleepy seaside town, her usual daily routine includes school runs, working from home and caring for her children and husband.
But one ordinary day turns dark when Annabelle cracks and throws herself in front of a train.

A twenty minute honest drama, based on a true story, wanting not to just show a horrific event but deal with the consequences of such actions. 

Pre - draft, pre - thoughts, tiny bit of script just to give an idea





FMP update

Well I'm still happy to go ahead with my drama idea, I really am looking forward to getting into writing a script, its something I havnt properly had the opportunity to do since first year really, and I really love doing it. I have already written a page and a half even though I'm not really ready to, I just couldnt wait!

The only thing that is making me apprehensive to do this is sourcing good actors. Its very doable but has always proved very hard! I have set up a casting call pro account to get ready to post the jobs up, but it asks   for a production title to be able to post a job which I dont have! I am also thinking I am going to commission Chloe to help me with casting as she seems to know what shes doing in that area and it enjoys it too.

I have also commissioned Cat for a camera person, Dylan for editor and will probably ask Will to also be a camera person. I will be writer/director. I am hoping to have Chloe help with casting a production management.

I just need to get on with writing up a treatment, its been so long I've kinda forgotten how to do it!
